Propagating yam through minisetts (FRENCH CAPTIONED) 

Very good. I am impressed. It helped me for an examination tomorrow. I am currently pursuing a Diploma in Agriculture

information is power. This will increase my yield this year

@Gladys Foster They did suggest an organic method. Wood ashes.

The farmers who cannot afford pesticides or other chemicals will be growing organic yams which should sell at much higher prices.

Thsnks Doctor. Very helpful. I have also subscribed for more news from your organisation.

Wonderful!! I'm surely going to try this out. Thanks for the knowledge 😊 IITA

God bless Nigeria, God bless IITA for this. am proud to be a farmer

The information is adequate and explicit. thanks

You are so blessed Sir

What do we do with the dry cut seeds ? It needs to be planted obviously, but we were not told in the video, so the information is incomplete

Thank you for sharing this nice video, Brother👍

short an informative,thank you

What do you do with the cutting do you plant them directly into the soil or do you use toothpicks and a glass of water to let them root ? That was a very important aspect that you didn't include in your video .

thank you for this information

Very nice video ..👌👌👍

Thanks for this information. I’m going to grow some yams here in the States.

Thanks Doc for the video

Waoh thanks

After sowing miniset yam, how many day does it take for sprout to start coming out (or to say, to start germinating)

At what time of the year can mini yam set be propagated and planted?

Do we plant the cuttings straight into the soil or it will go through the nursery?

Thanks!!

Thanks Dr. Okonkwo, for this very valuable training on video.

At what time of the year can I grow my mini sett

Does anybidy know how long a mature harvested yam can stay before cutting it in mini sets. This i ask because the yams have to be imported to my country before preparing them into minisets and putting the in the soil. and which between hot and cold weathers is the favorable for yam farming?

Thank you for this presentation/education on Yams I have always been fascinated with Yams Are the purple Yams still around Thank you

Nice video

I see some people using cement to treat their potatoes, can it also be used as an alternative to wood ash.

This is good, my question is about the chemicals, are they safe?

After treatment of the yam with wood ash how many days will it take before planting.

How do we plant the yam,is it by facing the white part up or face it down wards to the soil

Can I used this cut yam to produce ware yams or I HV to produce seed yams before producing ware yams

Hello, can i use Snipper alone as chemicals?

How do we plant this?. Is it on heaps or in a nursery just like tomatoes?.

👍👍👍👍👍

Please what chemicals are used to treat the seedlings or cut yam seedlings?

Very informative video. Thanks

Good afternoon sir please after the woodash what is the name of the other chemical you used before you dried the yam, and I'm also curious about the way you cut the yam so small I thought that the growth and the bumper of your harvest depends on the size of the tuber of Yam you planted,pls Dr I'm interested to more Mrs Eshemokhai

Can I use wood as alone to treat the yam before planting

How to plant cassava

Now what... WTF did I miss something? Did he boil them and then eat them for dinner 😄

Discouraging with the chemicals use. We diet should be focus on more organic diet

My question is: Is the insecticide plus other chemicals as you mentioned healthy when we eat the yam?

You won't reply, but I too wish to know a biological way of planting yam. I wish to plant Purple Yam, however. It's probably different.

I would think that using a solution, or rather a dilution of neem oil would work. It is a natural insecticide and fungicide.

Come to my yam shop bogo on yams limited time

wood ash wood ash wood ash :) best natural thing to use for fungicide and insecticide

Should that be doRmancy? Clive Ocnacuwenga

Thanks for the information, but instead of chemicals being used can you suggest a more biological or rather, organic method of treatment.. for some of us that do solely organic planting, these chemicals used are dangerous for health and will not allow the crop to pass organic testing to be regarded as certified organic crop in the Western world where we plant.

Sir, your video just proved that school is scam when it comes to practical aspect. I just watched a video of a farmer who didn't study agricultural science and it's very much educative compared to yours. Also he replies people's comments but you don't reply comments despite knowing that your video is vague.

don't use chemical, respect nature understand how it work, try permaculture

sir if the chemical is safe why you need gloves? sir respectfully you don't need chemical, let us stop poisoning out self, back to all organic organic organic organic foods

Waste of time

he's not a good teacher. he kept saying chemical. doesn't chemical have a name? I'm not sure if he knows what he's teaching
