Amoloye urge farmers to exercise patience during the pre-planting process for 2024 planting season

 "Founder of AMOLOYE FARMS AND AGRICULTURAL AGENCY, Kareem Jeleel Adebowale, urges all farmers to exercise patience during the pre-planting process amidst climate changes for effective profit management or maximization in the 2024 planting season. With the looming threats of disease and pest infestations, unpredictable weather patterns, including harsh weather conditions and unexpected rainfall breaks, as well as potential hazards on already planted seeds and plants, it's essential for farmers to stay vigilant and adaptable. By being patient and proactive in implementing preventive measures and seeking timely solutions, farmers can safeguard their crops and ensure a successful harvest season."


"Rainfall breaks in March and April can significantly impact the pre-planting process, causing delays and disruptions for farmers. These breaks in precipitation can lead to soil moisture inconsistencies, making it challenging to establish proper planting conditions. Furthermore, sudden heavy rainfall followed by extended dry periods can create ideal breeding grounds for pests and diseases, further threatening crop yields.

It's important to note that planting with the first rain of the year, especially without irrigation, can pose risks to crop health and overall yield. The initial rain may not provide sufficient moisture to sustain crop growth, and subsequent dry spells could lead to crop failure. Without proper irrigation systems in place to supplement water supply during dry periods, farmers risk losing their investments in seeds and labor.

Instead of rushing to plant with the first rain, farmers are advised to exercise patience and wait for more consistent rainfall patterns or utilize irrigation methods to ensure adequate moisture levels for crop growth. By adopting a cautious approach and considering the long-term implications of planting decisions, farmers can mitigate risks and optimize their chances for a successful planting season despite the challenges posed by rainfall breaks and unpredictable weather conditions."
