With climate change and rising populations, we have to find more sustainable ways to farm our food. Are hydroponic greenhouses the key to farming's future? You can grow a variety of plants without ANY soil and 90% LESS water. It also requires 10x less space so you can do a lot more in a smaller area. That means easily growing fresh herbs, fruits, vegetables, and flowers both indoors and out. And because everything is grown and picked fresh, the flavor is unbelievable!
This Ghanaian farmer has found a way to use greenhouses to grow beautiful tomatoes, capsicum or bell peppers and Mediterranean cucumbers. His greenhouses are located right here in Accra, Ghana.

This is the only video in the world that I can watch and rewatch...
He had no knowledge of greenhouse farming but now he knows the does and donts and have employed unskilled to become skilled workers....this guy is now my mentor... #farmer nii
So lovely ❤️
Guys let’s take advantage of this educational piece
🥰
Thanks for the planting information.lwould apply it to my small gardens next season.
Yes so true, very educational
Great video! This guy is doing a great job. Growing your own food is power. It's amazing what we can do when we set our minds to it. When I have surplus tomatoes or food, I freezed it. I saved money that way. May God bless Ghana and Africa 🌍!
I am very proud of this farmer watching from 🇨🇦🇯🇲born lovely video Jasmine big up yourself ❤️👍👏🏾👏🏾
Well done !! Nii farms ..Ghanaians should purchase & consume our own crop produce ..we have plenty 🙏
Plenty 🥰
I love this man . Finally God has blessed Ghana with someone who thinks about nature and the wellbeing of Ghana .when ever I will be in Ghana, I shall visit you .Stay blessed Bro
Why religion in everything? God was not blessing him before? "Finally God bless him" God don't bless people who does not have a tangible endeavor for you to see. God does not bless unscrupulous people who has businesses? They are successful. What's with the religiousness. Is God not blessing the Ghana CD? My man African seem backward with the injection of religion in everything. Religion is no God. Inject God in every part of your life Not religion. Religion is construct created. God's laws are written in your heart. They are universal. They insert inner conviction when you attempt them. They come with consequences even if you pretend they did not happen.
Stop being dishonest to start.
It's so inspiring when I hear all these good deeds happening in Ghana. Well done to people like Farmer Nii, hope the government do not hit them with heavy taxes
He can open a farmers market in additional to his business, farm- fresh!
Yes I agree 💕
This is the most descent farm interview ever done in Ghana. No unnecessary questions and unstructured inputs. Good job.
On behalf of Afrikans l said thank you Nii.
Wow this is very impressive this guy is very good at what he is doing
Also very encouraging to others 💕👍🏾
He really is 🥰
OmG, I really enjoyed this interview, the greenhouses are so neat and clean inside. Praise Jehovah God for the healthy vegetables! Father God bless the health, hands and minds of the people who is maintaining the vegetables. Blessings to this farm!
Very informative and educative interview. I was researching green house farms in Nigeria when I stumbled upon this video. Initially thought the video is too long by just looking at the timeline but once I started watching the video I couldn't stop. So much value and engaging too. A very intelligently conducted interview. Thanks Jasmine from Nigeria. I will be contacting him for mentorship
Very informative and excellent venture to begin a business! Congratulations Mr. Nii on your success! Thank you for sharing! 👍🏽
Please Sister continue with the educational videos! We all learn in different ways. ❤
My school prefect. Always a cool, humble guy
Oh lovely
Love this and the fact he mentioned the issues with water issues in reg farming and entering into green housing … great .. insightful…and organized.. in the heart of Accra …
Farmer Nii to the world!
Very proud of you Nii. Congratulations. Thanks Jasmine 🙏
Awesome show, and a beautiful farm concept. I love how so organically arrived at this point from backyard farming. I'm definitely on track to follow his example
May God bless the future of Ghana
Solidly informative as always. Kudos to the farmer and yourself for doing this. I am now tempted to convert part or all of my backyard to a green facility.
I love it! 🇺🇸
I was not long ago discussing this very thing. Omg! I can do this in Ghana. Thanks so much.
Proud of FarmNii, you are what mama Africa needs, you created employment especially for the ladies who are the back bone of our continent, much love from Kenya.
Yeah amazing 🥰
I just want to learn how to set up and how to prepare the garden like this, most especially the materials used to prevent weed
Great vid. Good for Nii for starting up a hydroponic greenhouse farm. Indoor farming does have its flaws (soil is very important for plants) but I can see the potential and SSA countries need to up their game for growing and raising their food and becoming food sufficient and secure. I hope SSA countries promote the growth of their native domesticated crops (sorghum, yams, millet, cowpeas, etc) and domesticate new native species (grasscutters/greater can rats, African savanna hares, ostriches, etc).
What is a greater can rat?
You gonna kill my trip before I book. I don't play with rats, roaches and spiders.
No rodents, please. 😅
hi Jasmine great video takes me back to when i use to do that type of farming here in Australia back in the mid 1970's when in the Nursery game we called it Hydroponic farming Ashley Australia love it

This has proven to work well many places when done correctly, and Nii seem well on his way 😃👍
He answered "10 plots",,, is that 10 acres? When I've heard the term used, the size tends to veer around 0.7 acres = 1 "plot"
It’s about 2.5 acres
@@stephenashong6800 Thanks! 🙃
A plot in Ghana is about 100 by 70 feet.
@@markntiri8251 That's what I also thought, but,,, so 10 plots be over 6 acres, no?
@@emlillthings7914 nope 😂😂4plots equals an acre
Jasmine your videos keep getting better and better, we hope your channels subscription grows into the millions.
Appreciate this James 💕
