After making this video last year, With hope that I will have a bountiful harvest. Few weeks later, there was a Ginger disease outbreak in Kaduna. This disease affected over 95% of the Ginger farms within and outside Kaduna State.

Today, a bag of Ginger is over 600k. So many people couldn't farm Ginger this year, because the seedlings was scarce. Ginger farmers usually keep aside their seedlings after every harvest.

Ginger is a major cash crop in Southern Kaduna. Some people have build Duplex, buy lands, Cars and travel abroad with the money they made from Ginger farming in Kaduna.

None. The only insurance is that, if you collect a loan facility from Government to farm and you encounter this. Government will not ask you to refund the loan.

CBN, Bank of Agriculture and some State Governors do give out loan facilities to some farmers.

That is to the few privileged ones that have access to Government loans/grants.

Sorry for the loss dear farmer. I hope you recover with a double harvest the next season. Was this disease avoidable? I was thinking farmers now have access to herbicides to prevent outbreak of any disease.

Please research and find out how you can prevent what happened to your ginger plantation from happening again.

Take it easy - the feeling of lost profits can be horrible.
