    Please,when you do these videos,ask the guest ie Maria if she can put her email address in the description box so that other brothers and sisters can contact her in the event that she needs to invest with other like minded people in the diaspora and on the continent. There is another sister in The Gambia 🇬🇲 by the name of Ajola Jallow who left Wall Street in new York to start her farm. Please put contact information (with their permission)for these sisters and brothers. We may need to collaborate with them.

      The fungicides and pesticides are what is used to control the fungal diseases like late blight, early blight etc and pesticides are for controling the sucking insects. Tomatoes are first raised in the nursery bad then later transplanted to the main garden. Hope this throws some little light
