for being involved in TL projects (Figs. 2.1 and 2.2). “I was taught how to grow the
seeds, carry out diagnosis, how to store them, among other things. This year, there
are some seeds that I have begun putting on the ground so that I can continue conducting
research about them. Naliendele Institute gave me about 20 lines and I am
working on all of them. In fact, they have not yet been named. I’ve just planted them
in plots; from plot number one to plot number twenty.”
Nyirenda is reaping big from his seed production business. “Last year, I got 90
bags of groundnut from 4 acres, and I sold 47 bags through Naliendele. I sold to
other farmers the remaining 43 bags” he said. One bag equals to 42 kg.
Nyirenda does not regret his decision to venture into groundnut seed production.
“First, I have six children; two are in secondary school and two are in primary
school. I pay their fees from the money I earn in the groundnut business. I have built
a good house and bought more land to expand the planting area from the proceeds
of the groundnut business as well. Generally, I would say, for me this a self-sufficient
business.”
Nyirenda, however, appeals to the government to purchase planters on behalf of
the farmers as this will reduce the cost of production and increase profits. He also
thinks that if a factory is set up for groundnut value addition, farmers like him will
not struggle any longer with lack of market.","2020",,,,,,"Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd","Singapore","3-32","30",,,,,"doi:10.1007/978-981-15-0845-5_2",,,,,"TRUE","978-981-15-0844-8",,"Sowing Legume Seeds, Reaping Cash",,,,,"","https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-15-0845-5_2","","",,"","",,,,,,"",,,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,,,,"","",,,,,
