Land Procurement
You need a land you can either buy a land or lease one. Depend on your financial capacity, you can decide on buying or lease. If you decide on lease one agrees for not less than four years or more. I cannot assume the cost of buying land or lease a land. If you can get land inside deep forest or a land that has been cultivated for very long time will be added advantage for you.
Clearing of land
To clear one acre of land by manual method, you should prepare for N15K TO N20K, depending on area. Tell the laborer to burn it for you or they should sweep it, if you are doing the clearing during raining season to enable you to plant properly.
