From Nigeria, I just bought twenty thousand naira worth of dung for use in my farm. Yes you are on point farmers buy animal dung for improving farm fertility.
Wow that’s amazing. What farm do you use it at?
Great video Fred God bless, it's ideal and worthy for the venture
It sure is
In Uganda, goat dung is the most thought after organic manure. Used in coffee and banana plantations. The urine is used for fertilizer too. Though it's quite scarce when compare to cow dung. The belief is that goats dung stays longer in the garden for it disintegrates gradually
That’s great to know
Watching you from Uganda we use animal dung for banana plantation, maize, coffee , vegetables and any other things for farming, we mix together with the soil first like a week before we plant anything but if you're going to plant like tree you've to dig the hole first then after you put dung about one weeks then you put the plant but if you're going to plant vegetables like spinach you've to mix dung with the soil in the place where you're going to put those vegetables simple as that.
Really? That’s great
Great video, the main reason why it's beneficial to raise goat hse is Ammonia discharge from the goat dung which affects goat respiratory disease ,this one the ammon evaporated is less by the time it reaches the goat herd.so it's more to do with biosecurity
Yeah right.
Great video Fred. However, I think raising a slanted pavement at the bottom would make it easier to clean/collect the dung afterwards.
Well noted, thanks
Thank you Fred!! Very detailed and inspiring!!!! It will surely help me!!!
Glad it was helpful!
wow i am very impressive. the youth must learn from you . i will give a call
Yes, thank you.
Alright sure
Great job you are aways an inspiration, maybe the camera is not doing us justice to show how high the pan is raised.
Will show that next time. Thanks
Thank you very much for your coaching and inspiring farmers. As for now I think we have the biggest housing till you completed your project in Sierra Leone Northwest Kambia District, Gbalamuya Town. I will like to send you some pictures of our farm. The one raised shed is completed the other one is on construction.
That’s awesome. You can send it to me on WhatsApp +233241177677
Well done bro 👍
Thanks ✌️
Amazing Fred. You’re the man ❤ 👍🏾
Thank you kindly
In Malawi the urine and dang is used as manure and some are making organic fertrizers with them
Love what u are doing, God bless❤
Thanks
I'm from Kenya , animal dug is mostly used in greenhouses,but you can also in coffee plantation & Banana plantation.
Oh that’s great. Thanks for sharing
I think the goat farmer in Akuse is called Henry Adobor ( Green Acres farm). He imported some boer goats to Ghana some time in the early 2000s, if i remember correctly. Unfortunately, i seems his website is no more active, so there is not much info online apart from a few blogpages.
Oh okay. Thanks. Will look it up
Good job done Fred, my question is do you bath the goats
Not directly but we bath them with a disinfectant regularly
Good job Fred
Thanks
Am using the waste product to cultivate some vegetables in my small inland garden it helps my reduce the burden of buying artificial fertilizer.
Oh that’s awesome. How well is it doing comparing to other fertilizers?
Good idea Fred, but the height under the pen does not seem to be high enough for easy access for sweeping.
It’s quite high though. Will show it better next time
Hi Fred, thanks for sharing this. It looks like you treated the bottom part of the poles you used. If that’s the case, I suppose it’s against pest or decay. What did you use for the treatment? Thanks
We used insecticide like dursban
I have a bigger one in Sierra Leone, and it is about 6 Ft above the ground
What's the measurement?
Oh really, I’d love to see it. Can you send me pictures on WhatsApp? +233241177677
Thank you a lot 😊
Always welcome
Good job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great job ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
First here you are doing great
Thanks 💪🏾
Good morning sir, please sir, how much does it cost me to build a pen for fifty goats?

Hi Fred, just came across this and wanted to add some ideas I came across as I did some research on goat pens. Farmers in Pakistan were using the raised pens but plastic flooring with interlocking mechanisms to connect them together. Underneath a slanting metal sheet was inserted to collect the dung. Here is a link to a presentation I found helpful to show this.

Thanks very much for sharing 🙏🏾
You are right there and it would have been great to take the camera, turn it away from you and show us exactly what you are doing. Instead you describe the whole thing for us to imagine what a great job you are doing while you are sitting on it. SMH.
Will work on that. Thanks
U better raise it up some more before its costs u n ur flock
Any reason why?
@@FarmingInAfricaOfficial to help you clean under the pen well and to avoid ammonia gas from their urine and all
Yeah yeah
Sorry to remind u ur goat pen is very low to the ground that's dangerous
It’s actually raised
@@FarmingInAfricaOfficial suppose to be 6ft above the ground
Animal excrement is referred to as dung, not faeces!
Well noted. Thanks
