Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 73162, member: 636"] A Chinese agribusiness operating in Nigeria has rolled out spray equipment designed to slash labor demands and accelerate chemical application across vast farmland. Charles Lee, who represents Smartisan Investment Nigeria Limited after residing in the country for 16 years, demonstrated the agricultural drums in Kano State's Kura Local Government Area and explained how the machinery can match the output of roughly 40 manual workers within a single day. The innovation addresses a persistent vulnerability in Nigerian agriculture, where pest invasions can devastate up to half of a harvest if growers cannot treat their fields within a narrow window. Lee emphasized that the drums enable operators to cover 10 hectares before nightfall, a speed that proves essential when infestations strike and traditional hand spraying leaves crops exposed for dangerously long stretches.
