- Knowing the right agronomic practices in your LUCRATIVE UGU (PUMPKIN) FARMING is the bedrock to sustainability and success in your ugu farming business.
This is an amazing video for all ugu farmers (pumpkin farmers). This video focuses on good agronomic practices for the establishment and maintenance of a productive pumpkin field.
It is practical and very educating. #ugufarm #ugu #agriculture #nigerianugufarm #ugufarmers

Can I cut ugu leaves while the pods are still growing?
I am late to your channel but very satisfied with your output. Keep it up.
Welcome aboard!
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub Thanks allot and stay blessed.
well done sir, wish to ask if the irrigation system is necessary during the rainy season
No, it's not necessary.
The essence of the irrigation is to provide water for the crops, which the rain would be doing during the rainy season.
Hello @Chidav Where are you based. Can you help advise on a small
farm setup in Lagos state
Yes please

Thanks For the Information I really find it resourceful.... please can ugu do very well during dry season?
You can plant ugu anytime as long as you have irrigation available
I plan to plant ugu before I came across your video on CZcams thanks so much. can I plant in the month of February. please advise me.
Ugu can plant ugu anytime as long as you have irrigation available.
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub thanks so much .
Did you apply any foliar fertilizer at all...just which to know...kudos bro
No, we didn't.
We used organic and a bit of NPK.
More of organic fertilizer.
Nice job , pls I am having problem with my ugu leaves,
The green pigment is been eaten up by what I don't know, pls what do u suggest I do to stop the spread.
Spray with insecticide
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub which do u recommend?
@Chidav how do you deal with squirrel on my ugu farm
We really dont have squirrel attacks on the farm.
But you can get traps and set on their paths, also, drop some poisoned fruits that they love around the farm.
You can still spray some repellents on the farm. They do not like the smell of garlic though, so you can get the extract and spray on your farm.
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub thank you so much.
Also, Can I trim ugu plants while the pods are at the final stage of maturing?
Yes, you can but you shouldn't make it too intense wo you don't kill the plant in the process
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub Thanks for your prompt response. You are a blessing to this nation.
The wind is making too much noise in your microphone..... Haaaaa
Yes, it was actually. It that’s already solved. Thanks for watching
Please what's the difference between inter spacing and intra spacing
I just want you to imagine two different rows.
So inter spacing is the distance from one row to another row, while intra spacing is the distance along a particular row.
That's very Helpful Thank You very much 🙏🙏

What is the right management of a commercial ugu farm
Thanks for your question.
There are several of them.
For your field to be a commercial field, you have to ensure the right plant population is on the field.
Then the following have to be done on your field.
1. Prompt harvesting of your ugu leaves. (Harvesting would be done twice every month or in some cases every 10 days) therefore, proper fertilizer application would b done after every harvest in order to ensure the plant produces optimally.
2. Ensure there's no weed on the field to compete with your cultivated field.
3. Fungicide and insecticide application after every harvest to ensure no pest attacks or fungicide attacks (this should be done at least 2 weeks before harvest)
4. Irrigation of field to ensure it produces all year round.
5. Proper field observation to ensure that you detect any issue before it becomes a major one.
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub thanks so much for the answers to my question. I will always look forward to more of your update. Thanks and God bless.
Please what type of fungicide and pesticides can you recommend
How much they sell it per kg
Seeds are sold in paints or per seed
Hello, please are you an agronomist?
Yes please.
How may we be of service?
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub I'll get back to you when I'm ready.
Thanks.
Please can we plant ugu in a swampy land during dry season ?
It's not advisable Sir.
Ugu is a perennial crop that can grow for 2 to 3 years with good management
So planting it where it would be destroyed just after a few months is not profitable for the Ugu business.
You can, it's true that it will be destroyed after that dry season but the profit you make will 2 times rainy season farming.
Please where is your farm at
We have our farms in Lagos and Ogun state Nigeria.
Please where in lagos
@@kolagbodiana1334 It's in Ojo area in Lagos.

All you need is proper field management. And ensure plant is healthy
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub my own farm will only bring out flowers but hardly turn to fruit, any chamical for the fruit
Apply decomposed poultry dung and a NPK 15:15:15 alongside
My mentor 😊 pls can i have ur contact?
Yes please, go to description of video
This is local ugu seeds not hybrid
No Ugu farmer can claim to have an hybrid seed yet.
Ugu is majorly cultivated here in this part of the world. And other countries even get their seeds from Nigeria.
Most of the varieties available are locally gotten
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub Ok i heart you, so 20000 seeds are ok for 1 Hectare of land right and what is the estimated kg to be expected from 1 Hectare via anytime the owner harvest them
Not at all.
For commercial purpose, you would need a well populated field. Using spacing of 60cm by 50cm, you would need about 33,333 seeds.
And you may even go more dense using 50cm by 30cm, 60cm by 30cm.
From 1 hectare, you can get up to 5,000kg to 10,000 kg
@@ChidavAgriculturalHub Thanks bro, all the best from China. 5k-10k per each time we harvested the leaf right because i know it could be harvested twice in a month
Exactly
You talk too much in your videos, repeating what you have said previously, over and over again
