Pasteurization...way too expensive for your budget

Talk to @The_Atheist. He once posted a nice listing regarding dairy farming, including challenges, expectations, marketing and projections.

But if I were you, I would get into the digital migration business. Buy decoders at 2500, get electronic shops upcountry to sell for you at 3500, unawapea 300. No upfront investment by the retailers, na unazituma na matatu.

Simple maths:
10 guys each selling one decoder per day is 7k clean money. Toa miscellaneous ya two k unapocket 5k. Your investment is 30 decoders for 75k. Am ready to guide you on this.

Here you aren't factoring in human greed. You must be too naive or too trusting.

Idea ya onions seems legit but its not that straight forward.it needs some trial an error..but it seems like the best to me since youre more in control of the project...animals are quite unpredictable.

Boss, watu upcountry sio kama nairobiens. And again you aren't giving every Tom d*ck and harry. Someone won't close their 500k shop just because you gave them decoders worth 10k.

Too simplistic. How many not-every Tom, d*ck and Harry- do you know in rural shopping centres across Kenya?

My friend, am in the business since Nov last yr. I know the ups and downs, and those figures are not as simplistic as you think. People upcountry are much more monied that we Nairobiens. Obviously there are challenges, and that's why I offered my services in mentoring the fellow.

Believe it or not, I have used this model and moved over 1000 pieces over the period!

farming or any other business venture is profitable but the catch usually is majority of people give the good side they wont give you the challenges, just find out the challenges in the venture you wish to start, find out how to mitigate them and you're good to go
