@@risingfarmers thanks
wow too much your plantation corn very green and healthy very nice corn
Honestly I love this.
It's beautiful. No pest.
I can't hold my tears! Afrika has good weather and big lands but we're still crying and dying from hunger when we have rivers, lakes to be able to grow many crops. We should learn from Israel a desert country that's doing well in his small land. What's wrong with Africa?
Thumbs up to Frank,well spoken.For the youth of Ghana,they see Agriculture as job for the illiterate.
Ghana can make it if only we are ready to embrace this field of work.
Thanks very much Edem
Well said but bro the cost of farming a mega farm is very high in Ghana
Very impressive farm indeed. Thank you for sharing. Israel is indeed a greet example to follow in farming/agriculture
Yes, thank you
That's my Ghanaian brother.
Good to see you
As African we are needed to learn this because Agriculture is the back bone in many African countries.
That's very true.
Beautiful farming. Big uptime Israel firshowing the way..
Great farming practices up there!.
I wish the Ag Dept at Utah State University would take the lead on this here.
Too many here still use flood irrigation for corn.
The serious agriculture practice I ever see amazing
Thank you very much
Kallstrom Sweet Corn of Ephrata , Washington likes . We use circles to irrigate our sweet corn .
The corn is very neath and tall looking very healthy
Sure. Thanks bro
Great. I love this
El. Trabajo del campo no lo dejo por nada por nada. El trabajo del campo se disfruta. Siempre andamos al aire libre se disfruta el canto de las aves principalmente lo verde de todo. El. Agua. Ni se diga
Very nice management.
Thank you!
What is the distance between plant to plant and row to row please tell bro
Very nice management
Thanks
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Hello Sir Frank, good to see this wonderful corn plantation.
I'm Samuel Owusu, a final year, BSc Agricultural Sciences student with a major in Crop Science at the University of Ghana,
How can I reach you, sir?
I love Agriculture so much and I believe we can accomplish great things with it if we adopt the Israeli system of Agriculture. Africa can feed the world.
I like your intentions
Thanks for a very informative video Bro
Always welcome
very nice I'm from india
Thanks
This is wonderful, they use NPK and Urea as fertilizer?
Yes please
My brother, it is not enough just to tell us how well they are doing but also how it is done. What lessons have you learned. What are the techniques/ practices involved if we want to do the same thing?
It's very clean, my friend.
Macarius, I totally agreed with you!
Thanks for your concern sir. Thanks for watching our video.
Some of the techniques employed are;
1.Good land preparation (done in the wet season prior to the beginning of the dry season for efficient control of weeds)
2. Good planting distance, high density and good corn variety.
3. Drip irrigation
4. Pests and diseases control
5. Fertilization
6. Timely harvest
Two techniques were employed inmaking the farm so clean. 1. Spraying the field with pre-germination selective herbicides like Lagon. Lagon, when employed in corn production is effective in controlling weeds in corn. 2. The corn were planted in the summer where there's no way except via irrigation. However, since drip irrigation was employed, this denied the remaining wees seeds access to adequate moisture for them to function well.
I hope these will help a little bit.
Yes how’s it done, but let us show appreciation 🎉for the video coverage
Please am in Ghana so passionate about farming and I will like a step by step on it . The spacing and the machines to use in other to have a beautiful farm like this.
Good job bro
Thank you very much
South Africa should learn from this. Its starts with solar and nuclear to make drinkable water. Then all other things fall in place.
Sure
This is some great content. I'm a new subscriber 💞
Thanks brother
Não entendi nada mas parabéns pelo vídeo ..
very beautiful
It is amazingly beautiful. Just like that of corn fields in Southern America in the 60s. This is my vision when I think about planting my corn. I shall keep reviewing your channel for tips on a crop this uniform and healthy.
Does the planying of cotton close by have any bearing on how the corn grow?
Thank you for sharing
Peace and Blissings
Thanks very much. Actually, the cotton didn't have any effect on the corn even when planted near. Both are two different crops with each being supplied with its growth requirements. They all got enough sunlight vis-a-vis nutrients through fertigation to grow.
TX for the show and encouragement for us to engage in Agriculture. BUT you leave us alot of questions. Eg 1) how they use the drip method. ,,, what distance between each drip hole on a particular line
2) What is the garden line spacing between each plant hole on a line and then distance between line and line...
3) What do they use for soil enhancement
4) What variaty are they using & can we have it in Africa ?¿?
5) etc
Thanks for watching this video of ours. Indeed the distance were too close but those were within the rows. However, between the rows, there were 60 cm apart row spacing and over 100cm apart between drips. So each end of the corn row has enough space sunlight etc. Sowing the seeds one per hill minimizes competition where as irrigation and fertilizer application via the drip lines helped to achieve uniform growth and yield

Beautiful indeed, but I will like to learn how they associate drip irrigation and mechanization
I spent $52,000 i Drip Irrigation for six Hectares of Onions plantation including the mainline pipes & waterpump
Mantul deh
Thanks
This nation is incredible, they stand together, know how to share but above all, they have a will to work and succeed, you go Israel 🇮🇱, others will find it hard to follow in your footsteps
You're right Joe. Israel is an amazing country
Can you say where is Israel because I didn't find it on the map?
And do not mean occupied Palestine, seriously, shame on you for lying and believing it
Its name is occupied Palestine and not any other name that has no history or future, God willing
Sorry, not interested in being political whatsoever, thank you. Just interested in farmers willing to produce food.
@@user-ob5lx7fx1b why do you people always create confusions where ever you go?? Are you not ashamed of yourself?? Disgrace to human race. You don't have any aim for your life that's why you are still following this propaganda that Israel is occupying on your land so you won't wake up and find something doing. See your face! You're full of hatreds!!
this is a blessed Nation by far divinely !! can't be compared by any other . whether there's rain or not!
@Pure Gold.
They're hardworking and are also working intelligently.It's not about blessings.
That kind of belief is the one that's left most parts of the world blind~Especially Africa.
@@jean6030 beautifully put. We Africans are quick to attribute every success story to some sort of miracle from God. Instead of hard work . Planning and technical know how of how things work.
Africans pray every day for riches n health but fail to even go work
Yes they are land grabbers ... Don't forget that...
amazing bro❤❤❤
Thanks
It's not cheap I spent $ 52,000 in Drip Irrigation system including the mainline pipes & waterpump distance from the river to the farm is 700 meters Onions Plantation
You are right sir. In the long run, we believe the results will be awesome
irrigation+rainfall = evaporation + transpiration + runoff + leaching
Which one of these processes do Farmers really have control over during the growing season? If you have the ability to irrigate your sandy soils and water is cheap and plentiful, then you are fortunate and have some control on the left side of the equation. If you do not have irrigation, you must look at the factors on the right side of the equation to see what can be controlled or minimized to benefit your crop. Evaporation from the soil surface can be reduced with mulch or leaving crop residue on the soil surface. Transpiration is a function of the plant leaf surface area and the weather. Runoff is or should be minimal in sandy textured soils with high percolation rates.
This leaves the leaching of water out of the root zone as the #1 controllable loss of moisture to your crop. Interrupting the downward movement of moisture in your soil by installing a "smart" barrier can greatly reduce the leaching of water and nutrients. SWRT subsurface membranes detain/retain up to 90% of irrigation or rainfall in the root zone for crop use by disrupting the gravitational movement of water in the soil while still allowing excess water to percolate and do not create anaerobic soil conditions.

Hi. I'm Ahmad Usman Salihu from Bayero university Kano, Nigeria. Can we link up?
Nice job.
Thanks for the visit❤
when are you coming sir
Hey good day, how are you suppressing the weeds and pests and keeping it so clean?
Herbicides
@@Ваня199 can you tell me which ones?
The Fulanis herders in Nigetia should learn from this farm development and used the Northern vast lands for cultivation instead of terrorissing and killing defenseless citizens in Nigeria.
How did they keep off the weeds? Weeding or spraying?
By using drip irrigation, production was done in the dry season. However, herbicides with long effects on weeds such as lagon was used as pre-emergent weed control
African dry humour here!all that agriculture "just to feed cows"! hahahaha 🤣. wonderful though.i was ( amaized and cornfused). Imagine right now the rain is beating down my roof while I wonder why there are no vegetables in the market!
Mantap...👍
The chosen land is not the best? Wow the least shall be first.

First I want to thank you for the video, but what technic are they using so the farm to be so clean like this

What!4 - 5 months no rain? That can't be.
It is sir
We even sometimes have years when there was no rain from end of March and up to December, Israel doesn't rely on rain for agriculture
Every problem has a solution. In fact there are many solutions. There are also ideas imported from elsewhere which work there but not in most of Africa. Most important are rain water trapping so none runs off to a stream, cover crops, built up of plant residue to prevent water evaporation, low till no till soil management
May I request sir on the practices you did in your corn field? I'm from Philippines. Thank you
Yes we can
Good land preparation, correct spacing, good inputs, timely sowing and timely application of fertilizer, pesticide, etc, timely harvesting etc
Great video. How are they planting the maize that close? I know maize needs about 60cm plant to plant but on their maize it's just too tight. How do they achieve that? What do they put on it to make it grow like that. What do they use for getting rid of pest

Very healthy unstressed plants are far more pest, mold, insect resistant.

Did you apply fertilizer , kindly tell us the type of the fertilizer you used
Hello, thanks for watching our video. Fertilizer was applied to the corn. We used Fertilizers containing NPK as active and trace elements which are mostly found in Israel. Thanks
In Israel the irrigation fluid holds the fertilizer in solution. The type and concentration of fertilizer changes from week to week because the needs a re never the same. Fertigation is designed for each individual crop because each crop has unique timed needs. So the fertigation is very detailed and specific. Fertigation makes up for the shortage of organic matter in the soil that normally would provide nutrients and retain water.
certified ....
How is the irrigation done? From a bore hole, river?
Thanks for watching our videos. Depending on the volume of water available via depth of the borehole, area to be irrigated, power source, etc, 1. you can pump the water from the borehole into a reservoir or tank and later use a surface pump to distribute the water to the field through the drip lines or 2. with adjustable pressure, you can distribute the water directly from the borehole to the field. It all depends on the above listed factors
@@risingfarmers thank you
Good sharing brother ☺️
Thanks brother
I am telling you, we as a people will not be out of food anytime soon. The way that agricultural technology is doing wonders, it is really amazaing. I cannot uproot myself to leave the UK now, That is the next move that they should be doing, allowing studies through distance studies, this way more people would be able to pay for studies, dont you see everything is now becoming digitalized with the technology. Are you in Isreal or in Africa
Thanks very much. I recently returned to Africa.
can you invite me over,i need to learn the technology
How can I get sweet corn that's resistant to caterpillar and have good yield. My location is Sokoto Nigeria
We are grateful you watched our video. You can place and order on Amazon and eBay. We hope your country would allow the import of seeds. Thanks
changed crops so there is not repetition, and try mixed cropping and cover crops to change the caterpillar habitat.
You don't explain details of how the farm is without weeds and pests
No wonder😊 israel is a promise land given by God for His people🙏🙏
This blessing is not only for us Jews, in our book it is written, if you bless Israel, God will bless you too!
Cuál es distancia ideal para poder sembrar
Thius is Marvelous, i like what am seeing, but my question is, would i be able to do a degree in Agriculture from here in the UK. I cannot leave to go there now, but as long as i can stay here and take a degree through distance studies, I would be happy to do so. Please send me back a reply.
Thanks for your compliment. About the distance study in Israel, Agriculture studies are mostly done on campuses in Israel. However, we wish you do further research on that. Thanks
Good post, but how is this done?
Thanks sir. Good agriculture practices, timely sowing and timely application of fertilizer and herbicide as well as the use of drip irrigation were the keys to the success of the farm
Did they use fertiliser and chemicals to weed the grass?
For the fertiliser, drip irrigation allows the addition of fertiliser to the irrigated water known as fertigation. This method allows lesser use of fertiliser as compared with the conventional way. For the weed control, with drip irrigation in the summer or lack of rains, only the corn is supplied with water. Effective weed management was done prior to planting. There are also some selective herbicides which when applied once prior to planting enables efective weed control until maturity of the corn

Shame on our dictators
We can do many things for our own good if we believe all other things in life depend on us
You have unlimited information on internet, you have all the tools to prevail, you only need the will and consistency to prevail, if we managed to do this in a desert, imagine what we could achieve on a land like yours? and you can too!
Am jealous of the land of milk and honey.

A plant crop with no pest over it indicates too much chemicals are used. Those con seed should be avoided for human consumption nor to animals.Convetional farming is the source of many chronic diseases affecting humanity nowadays.
Another propagandist and boycotter..... we know your ways idiots! How many have you produced??
there are organic pesticide you know?
I can't see the maize cobs I can only see the maize trees

Is that GMO corn?
No please.
How do you achieve a weed-free environment?
Weed-free environment was achieved by the help of drip irrigation and use of herbicides. The land was prepared prior to the end of the raining season which allowed weed seeds to germinate and they were controlled using selective herbicides. Selective herbicides like Lagon from Bayer allows one time good weed management throughout the entire growing season of the maize, however, this type of herbicide should not be used in sandy-soils. Since the maize was planted in the dry season, the use of drip irrigation ensured that only selective portions or targeted crops, i.e , the maize receive the available water in the form of drips thereby denying the availability of moisture for other plants (weeds) to germinate or to survive.
Because they weeded and since there isn't enough rain falls, they hardly have weeds and you can control your weeds by putting plastic on the ground to cover the soil.
