Hey Alphaeusson.
How many dairy cows do you have today?
How big cost is buying animal feeds of your totally cost?
And my last question. Are there any agriculture land for sale in your area? And how many acres is there??

    Total annual cost for 2 dairy cow feeds : USD 1500.
    If you could get the money to buy some land to farm Napier Grass on, would you do it?

      Maybe I am thinking about your business in a longer term, but do you think you could make profitable business, if you rent an acre agriculture land and starting farming Napier Grass for animal feeds for your 2 dairy cows, and sold the rest to others livestock farmers??
      I am asking about this because I am looking for a business partner in the future, who can make profitable business in farming and has knowledge about farming in Kenya.

I am so greatful for the loan u gave me of kenyan sh.700.
I used it to buy Napier grass,mineral salts and molasses for my cow,as this acts as milk booster.
