Working on Farming: My Easiest Business Journey
Farming. For many people, it’s just something they do to survive. But for me, it’s been the easiest business I’ve ever had to run. And believe me, that’s saying something.
When I first started, I didn’t have much — no big capital, no fancy equipment, just hope and a little bit of courage. I needed a loan, but not from a bank. I needed trust. Trust from people who believed in me, who could see the passion I had for this venture. Because sometimes, it’s not about money alone, it’s about love, faith, and support.
That’s why I asked for help — not just cash, but trust. People who loved my vision, who wanted to see me succeed, who were willing to back me when I was just starting out.
And you know what? That trust paid off.
1. Earning ₦70,000 — Just Like Renting Land
In the beginning, I was working with a small plot. It wasn’t much, but the money I earned from farming was real — about ₦70,000. That may sound small, but for me, it was like renting a land, a stepping stone. It was proof that the business could work.
I was making money consistently, and that was enough to show that farming wasn’t just a hobby — it was a serious venture.
2. Trust and Love: The Foundation of My Startup
More than the money, it was the trust and love from family, friends, and mentors that gave me the confidence to grow. I told them about my dreams — not just to make money, but to build a future.
I wasn’t just asking for a loan; I was asking for belief. And when people believe in you, you move differently. You work harder, you take smart risks, and you keep pushing.
That support made all the difference.
3. Multiplying the Earnings: Four Times Over
Fast forward to today — I’m now making four times what I started with. That ₦70,000? It became ₦280,000. Enough to live comfortably, invest more, and plan ahead.
The best part is, I’m doing it in a way that feels good — not rushed, not stressed, but steady and smart.
Why Farming Was the Easiest Business
Some people think farming is hard work — and they’re right. It can be. But for me, the hardest part was getting started. Once I had trust and a little bit of money, the rest was just consistent effort.
I didn’t have to worry about crazy overhead costs or big loans. I grew what I knew, worked with the land, and slowly turned that into something sustainable.
A Message to Anyone Starting Out
If you’re thinking about farming, or any business really, here’s what I want you to remember:
Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Sometimes, trust and love are more valuable than money.
Reinvest your earnings. Multiply what you have step by step.
Believe in yourself, and let others believe in you too.
Farming gave me more than money — it gave me hope, stability, and a future.
I hope my story inspires you to start your own journey, no matter where you are.
Because with trust, love, and the right mindset, the easiest business can become the best business.
