This thread is a knowledge-sharing discussion debating the geographical limitations of growing millet and sorghum in Southern Nigeria. Participants argue against the belief that these crops are exclusive to the North, citing personal experiments in Lagos and Ikorodu, while others defend traditional climatic constraints. The conversation evolves into a broader critique of 'westernization' and a lack of agricultural education in the South.
Credibility signals:
citing personal experiments in specific locations (Ikorodu, Abuja)referencing specific regions for crop success (Oyo State, Katsina State)claiming ownership of farmlands ('my plot of land', 'my wife produces feed')
“Millet will grow in southern Nigeria. I have seen it grow in a compound in Ikorodu.”
