Farming Operations
Greenhouse Production
Controlled-environment vegetable production using a hybrid of substrate and hydroponic growing, with automated irrigation and fertigation.
The greenhouse is the highest-value use of the available land. Controlled-environment growing raises yield per square metre, extends the growing calendar beyond the rain-fed season, and produces the consistent grade and appearance that commercial buyers specify.
The planned approach is a hybrid rather than a single method: substrate growing for crops that do better in media, hydroponics where water efficiency and cycle speed justify it. Irrigation and fertigation are automated, with temperature, humidity, soil moisture and water quality monitored continuously.
Crop selection will be decided on Nigerian market demand, production cost, expected yield and achievable selling price, rather than on what is easiest to grow.
