These video clips were shared in our Telegram group. They depict some of the tricks used by some buyers to cheat you when they come to buy your farm produce and you're not vigilant enough.

Let's call this the Magnet Magic.

To avoid this kind of thing happening to you:

1. Ensure you use your own weighing scale. Don't use theirs.
2. Attend to one customer at a time and don't let them bombard you.
3. Always inspect your weighing scale each time you want to attend to a customer.
4. Have some of your most trusted farm hands around to assist you with the monitoring
5. Don't allow the buyers to scale by themselves. They have no business coming or touching your scales.

If you loose your guard, those "evi1 eagles" will devour you. May our labour not be in vain.

Did you know that proper ventilation in poultry houses can improve egg production? Fresh air helps maintain optimal temperatures and reduces disease risks. Let's keep our birds comfortable for better yields.

A mistake some of us make as farmers is spending expected profits long before our farm projects are ripe for harvest. For instance, you stock a pen with broiler chicks and before the birds reach the standard market weight, you have started spending your expected returns like the money is in your hands. Who does that? Well, some farmers (mostly newbies) have committed this error in the past.

You must understand that livestock farming comes with uncertainties. Hence, spending profits that you have not earned is not the right thing to do. Yes, your animals may be growing and looking healthy today. However, uncertainties such as disease outbreaks, poor performance, unexpected market price changes, natural disasters and farm accidents can occur, potentially wiping them out. You could incur huge losses if such an enterprise is not insured.

As a farmer, you must do your best to avoid making purchases, taking out loans or paying off debts because you believe money is coming. Just imagine for a few seconds what would happen if what you relied on fails to bring the expected or targeted profits.

What should you always do as a farmer?

1. Rather than spending ahead, plan for contingencies. If possible, keep a particular sum of money as a buffer when an unforeseen event occurs.
2. Take proper care of your animals and farm. When they are properly managed and are provided with high-quality feed, they will perform excellently.
3. Insure your farm business against unexpected losses and other uncertainties that could ruin your business or put you into a financial mess.
4. Never make financial commitments based on assumptions. Wait until your farm investment has matured before counting profits.
5. Be optimistic and be financially disciplined
