The rearing of livestock and farming in general, has taken a new dimension with the emergence of J Creed Farm and Consult in Nigeria.
J Creed Farm and Consult is a modern farm, which specializes in the breeding, farming and processing of livestock; sales, supply and export of farm produce; livestock management; and professional services, in the area of consultation.
The unique farm which is managed by a group of foremost experienced agriculturist and owned by Elosia Johnson Gigi, is located in a suburb of Ikorodu; one of Lagos State’s Local Government Area, known for agroindustry.
J Creed was borne out of the existence of some economic factors (especially in husbandry), ravaging the country Nigeria. These are factors like: inflation, unemployment, ineffective production and supply of food and other commodities; which has led to pressure on the masses.
As the clock ticks and the second counts, the effects of these factors are transcending to other critical issues, like food scarcity and hunger, etc. The need to proffer solution to these issues have triggered a level of consideration to meet the demands of food scarcity.
J Creed Farm and Consult has distinguished itself as a modern farm with the capacity to provide food and job security for Nigerians. This is evident in the current project the farm has embarked on, which are: pig, fish, and poultry farming; cultivation of crops and production of livestock feeds etc. all for human consumption and export.
Considering the role agriculture plays in the viability of a modern economy J Creed Farm is currently taking advantage of the vast and untapped opportunities in the dynamic Nigerian sector. It is also not leaving any stone unturned in its modern and mechanized approach, in using agriculture to transform the Nigerian economy.
At the moment, the poultry section of the farm has raised domesticated birds such as chickens, turkeys and geese to produce meat or eggs for food in large quantities and numbers respectively. The farm has also delved into Pig/hog farming, thereby raising and breeding domestic pigs for livestock, for food and skins.
Without mincing words, the history of some great economies that have made impact in globalization got it right from industrialization, not leaving the fact that agriculture also plays a significant role in industrialization.
The fact also, still remains that a huge chunk of raw materials used in some industries are from modern farms. The hides and skin used for leathers are from livestock, and others.
Another example will also suffice in a case whereby there is a high demand for cassava flakes (Garri); a popular food/commodity in Nigeria, which has also led to an unimaginable increase in the cost of processing and production. This type of situation will always leave questions stirring in the eyes of the government and the masses until the right approaches a taken.
J Creed Farm and Consult has emerged with the right perspectives to solving these problems that have emerged from the factors mentioned above.
The Fishes that have been raised in the farm will not only be for human consumption but also for commercial purposes, not leaving behind the prospects in exports of these fishes and other farm produce which are needed for consumption beyond the shores of Nigeria.
Apart from the recent advancements in the information technological space, great economies which are making impact today have practically embraced industrialization, which has in turn sustained most sectors in their economy.
Till this moment, Nigeria as a third world country has set backs in its economy because it is not producing but consuming. For every problem, there is a solution.
J Creed Farm and consult has come with a solution to these problems.
