Hello house

I just saw this thread and it was more than useful. I have 6 acres of land for palm plantation. I want to ask how many palm tree can I plant in that land with a 9meter spacing. And also I want to ask where can I get a very cheap land in southeast Nigeria like an hectar for very cheap for Palm plantation purpose.

Thanks very much.

This your 6 acres is approximately 2.43 hectares = 24,281m²

At 9m x 9m dimension you will plant 124 palm stands on 1ha = 10,000m²

So on 6 acres = 2.43hectares = 24,281m², you will plant approximately 301 palm stands.


On land matter, the gurus here will/may help.

Thank you very much for your answer. Am grateful.
Plz I have another question. With 300 palm stands, how many litres of oil can I get annually and what will be the estimated income it will bring.

Thanks very much.

@Adesiji....The only structure of alike Okomu in SW is moribund Okitipupa Farm Estate....

okine4real:


5M is a lot of money...If you go by what @ felixzo1: said, he said he used a spacing of 7 meter triangle...which would eat lots of space.. But for me i used 8.7 feet. meaning i used about 3 meter spacing. If you go by @ felixzo1: spacing that means if you have one hecter which is 100M by 100M you would have about 200 to 250 palm... and with that you would get about 2200 liters of palm oil per year... As for me the oil is very small. So if you must go by @ felixzo1: spacing you must or should have like 200 hecter which would enable you plant about 31,000 palms. but if you go by mine own spacing believe me with just 10 hecters, you are sure of getting about 13,500 palms... with with 13,500 palms you are talking about sweet profit.

But i have not gone to the village to see how the crops are and how the spacing is, all i know is, i do all the calling from Lagos... If you are in Heaven and you have a phone No, i would place a call to you, so far i want to seek information from you. When mine mum was buying the palms from NIFOR, she asked the workers there, that we want to use a spacing of 8.7 Feet and the said its okay..

But if anybody wants to go by spacing of 7 Meter, pls go to inside the village and buy your lands.... go to where you would buy your land for 50k or 60k per plot. so if you buy the lands very cheap you would have lots of money available to buy like 1000 plots at once.


During the season of Palm fruits you harvest every 10 to 14days.. each palm tree shoots around 5 to 7 palm fruits around one tree.
There is even another specie of oil palm available now TENERA is even old specie.. The specie is called SUPER GENE OIL PALM.. Its all over Malaysia. The Supergene na die.... It shoots around 15 palm fruit at a time and the harvest time is 2years after planting.
The Reason while i chose palm tree over plantain is because certain people have lots of money to go into farm, but dont know which to go for, Some people are not ready to go into farming because its cheap.. some people wants to invest even 10M and also want to reap beautiful profit.. So if you that kind of man that has good money and you want to go into farming... then palm tree is for you

My apologies for drawing us back to this post but please I want to ask if anyone has tried the SUPER GENE OIL PALM? I want to bring it in from the said country but I need to know if someone had tried it. Thank you

Hmmmmmm.... Watching with 3D goggle.
If this breed gives you good qualities of SPO- palmoil, it will surely denies other parts of the business PKN, PKO, PKC and PKS. But still let me learn from you sir.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
I am planning of going into oil palm plantation, I wouldn't say I am discouraged by what I have read thus far, I would rather say it has spurned me to work harder for the challenges head.
Special thanks to the OP and everybody that contributed.

Good day everyone, if one wants to start processing what equipment do they need at first. I'm guessing a presser and a boiler but I may be wrong. Thank you

It all depends on his target product. If his target product is palm oil then its ok. That's about the same size of seed in the you tube attached in page 9 of this thread by Mangan.

taraba state will not be suitable for iil palm plantation, the rainfall is inadequate. some parts of Benue, kogi, do to the east , Western and southern states are most suitable

Hello house, i have decided to comment today. Hope all your seedlings/plantation are growing well. Lol would talk again soon.

okine4real:
I have been hearing lots of people, talking about different types of Agricultural produce they can plant or would want to plant, But what i have not seen on these forum is for someone to really come out and tell us, all the stress, difficulties, ups and down he/she went through before setting up there plantation.

I want to start by saying i have managed to secure mine self 13 plots of land. Each plot is a 100 by 100 feet. i want to start up an oil palm plantation. I have been able to buy 1755 oil palm Nursery from NIFOR. My story goes like these.......

Each oil palm nursery cost 150 Naira
Loading of each oil palm Nursery inside the vehicle is 20 Naira each
I paid 50,000 to convey the goods from IMO state to Ibusa Delta state.


On getting to the farm, the vehicle could not get to ibusa on time, the vehicle got to ibusa around 9.30pm. So the vehicle had to park in the house for the night. The next morning the journey to the farm began around 6.30Am, on getting to the entrance of the farm, the vehicle could not go in, because of poor road network. The vehicle managed to drive in but as the vehicle drove in, some sticks punctured one tire. So we had to off load the hold oil palm nursery on the ground. So we hard to go hire a pick up van. The van owner charged us 6,000 to convey the nursery to a location closer to mine own farm because there are other people farm in front of mine farm. now after that, i had to call the Hausa boys to use there wheelbarrow to convey the nursery to the farm, they charged 24,000. na wa ohhhh

Now the next stage is for me to plant. My mum's brother did one of these Agricultural causes is school, so he is a professional when planting oil palms.

We used a spacing is 8.7feet. you heard me clear, 8.7 feet. while they where doing the measurement, you know when planting oil palm, you have to do pegging, some hard roots was sitting on the sport where he was suppose to plant the oil palm, there was so much roots on the ground, we called the Hausa people again, they charged me 30,000 to uproot all the hard roots. so work continued. As am specking now, they have finished planting the 1755 oil palms. They would be buying more 200 palms because its like the land is more bigger than with i was told.

While am putting these here is for the new people that wants to go into farming. People, if you must go into farming, you must have money..... The more you go into it, the more unforeseen issues comes, and if you don't have cash to solve the issue immediately, your work would be suspended.

Also it does not end in just planting, there are still lots of things to be done before the said three years when you would starting harvesting.


So far so good, i have don't lots of mistakes in setting up mine oil palm plantation. If i have read some post that advices one on NL about setting up Oil palm plantation, i would not have made these silly mistakes.

if you are setting up an oil palm plantation.

Never you buy expensive lands.
Buy from NIFOR in your State not from outside your state
Let there me good motor able rood, so the vehicle conveying the palms can go into your land direct.
Make sure there is know roots in the ground that would disturb when planting


I would update later when more things comes into mine head

boss, I saw you post and liked it. how can I you I want to go into palm plantation. how much is a nursery palm now

if you planting an already sprouted seed, it sould grow in a matter of days, keep irrigating
