"Information is power" Matt is knowledgeable - he does it right. The energy in this interview is dope- likes for Matt

Muthama's passion is always on another level. 100 guys like him with enough capital and 🇰🇪 would be the largest exporter of beef and mutton.

This man is highly knowledgeable, i just love how he explain things….and interviewer asked very vital questions too…thanks for a job well done.

The energy in this guy is unmatched .

Waaal waaaal waaaa this is awesome , i have learnt a lot and will emmulate in Zimbabwe

Guy is a walking encyclopedia of the type of farming he's doing. Am starting the same with sheep small scale mpaka nifike, I'll recording everything in my KZfaq channel. Thanks alot for such an informative video.

I’m very impressed. Well done Matt!!

Thank you sir I have learnt from you a lot about farming the Cattle, you are direct in answering questions asked

muthama is a good teacher and an informed farmer

Watching from Uganda.... Very informed and proud farmer ...i love his passion

Matt is very intelligent n innovative,,,just love him💯💯💯

Watching and feeling so inspired Love from SA...🙌

This is an excellent setup; very well thought through with great priorities i.e. starting out with the feeds first. My prayer for you as that the local community will continue to be welcoming to you in the medium and long term and that this will result in sustainable transformation of beef production in that area... All the best...

What a informative subject ❤

great video....good questions and content

The interviewer you are a guru when it comes to penning questions for your audience. You have asked all questions Pilate Pontpher the ruler never asked those who crusified our Lord Jesus Christ. Kudos to video and interview questions. For Matt, you comic and mastery of what you are doing apart from educative is entertaining too😂😂😂 Following from Kondele Kisumu Liiiiiiiive!

Inspiring.Would love to visit this farm

Very educative, good job man!

The interviewer did his job very well.

Here in Uganda. Really love this. Inspired

"Information is powerful" I like the confidence 🙌

Nice job!❤❤ i love what you doing

This is a master piece when it comes feeding animals

Kudos, with this lesson... We will eradicate poverty

Great stuff. Very educational

Wonderful work. This is awesome,,, but passion is Paramount

You are doing great job.

Very educational for anyone who wants to learn about farming

I have learnt a lot from this video,thank you so much.

I have watched this guy's video s many times He is so into his thing The way he narrates,so incredible May God continue to bless his farm You are a rare breed

Wonderful, we have learned something

Now we are talking. This guy is me in few years. Good job sir

Matt is my role model

Keep the good work from sange farm Zimbabwe

Watching from Seattle. Comming soon.

Great my brother, you have shown us the way

Excellent content

Amazing lessons.

so much to learn from this man with a passion for agriculture. well done

Folk from Northern Kenya need to come and learn from this guy on growing animal feeds in dry areas

Am proudly of African youth interprinorship in Africa all thanks to the youths kudos we are wining

Impressed interesting project

The government of Kenya needs to support open an agricultural college in the dryer farming styles environment. Prof. Matharia would be a right man full-time lecturer. More farming equipment needed grass cutters, machinery, water drilling, irrigation fire control extinguishers, and clinics nearby slaughtering houses for local consumers and export routes. Once again admired his enthusiasm details orientation about integration local knowledge into dryer always food shortage villagers death during longer season a man masterpiece can control future famines and hunger.

kazi safi sana!! Thumbs up!

Thank you for asking good questions

Oh my God, this information is worth morethan a million

Top Information . Thx alot❤

Great work farmer. Watching from south Africa. May i suggest, since the maize is for animals, cut and crush the whole maize plant with the cobbs. It makes good feed. Check your grain ratio per plant, and then add your other concentrates. That reduces work and wastage of your stover

Very motivating

Uko sawa mkuu,

There are so many things to pick out from Matt besides beef lots. 1.coastal region can be a bread basket even with the little rain it receives. Just plant the right maize seeds and the right animal feeds crops that do not require much rain like panicum grass, sorghum, sim sim, sugar graze and take advantage of the erratic little rains and crops will grow with the little rain they get 2. Even with saline water , one can still do farming as long as the soil is fertilized not by expensive chemical fertilizers but readily available cow manure. Not even kalro or our Agri institutions can figure this out? 3. crops even grow faster in coastal region than even the most rainy places in Kenya and their leaves are bigger, in my little knowledge of science i thinks its due to the proximity to the ocean which creates the humidity. the ocean provides moisture which then gets to land and mixes with hot weather and humidity is created resulting in plant growth. Thats why you notice the coast is actually green even in dry seasons due to the effects of the ocean blowing moisture into the land. These are the people the president needs to invest in. folk who are actually doing it and walking the talk not just some folk in the minisitry seating in airconditioned rooms pushing papers, and wasting tax payers money in conferences at home and abroad instead discussing how to irradicate poverty via farming instead use that money to invest in MAtt. If i were President, I would employ him into govt, ask him to give me a plan with a budget and everything that he needs on irradicating poverty in N. kenya and coastal region via beef lot farming and once the plan is done instruct him to implement it and the govt will be 100% supporting him.

Great learning

I like the confidence of the prorefessor of of Animal pridction

This can literally be a multi billion dollar business easily if the Govt supported Matt. I have posted a video on how Australia intends to expand its beef export business and when watching the video i said this could literally be Kenya. If those in charge could put their heads together. The lands scape for cattle rearing in Australia is similar to Northern Kenya infact if you saw the landscape without not knowing which country it is you would say Northern Kenya. But Kenya has a slight advantage, the proximity of LAMU PORT is the gate way to the world for North Kenya exports. There is also a direct road network from N. Kenya to Lamu. The entire Kenya hinter land from Coast all the way to northern Kenya is ideal for cattle keep. cattle keep is the main economic activity for this region so we are not starting from scratch all we need is a plan an coordination. cattle herders will be advised to sell their cattle when they get to a certain age and weight this will also prevent herders from keeping large herds which they can not support during droughts and leave them to die. Farmers in N. Kenya and herders will also be encouraged to grow animal feeds like grasses that do well in that area and other drought resistant animal feed crops whereby they can feed their cattle once they reach a certain weight in feed lots. 1. Matt intends to export his beef to the middle east via lamu port. The coastal region and N. Kenya can be suppliers of cattle to matts beef lot. cattle herders will be instructed on the age and weight requirements needed for their cattle to be accepted by matts beef lot.The cattle should be of a certain age and weight before they can be sent to the Beef lot. Basically Matts beef lots would act as fattening grounds. The fattening should be at the quickest time possible to reduce on costs on feeding. 2. There will be other farmers who will grow the specific feeds required for the cattle. Matt has shown us that even dry areas can produce animal feed crops. In the middle east one live bull goes for $750. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fMlpotuWnbvLaJs.html

Very informative all this good planning was done on how many hectors

Thank you, thank you and thank you so much.

The government minister for agriculture should come and learn here

Thank you for sharing

Great information

I like feed lot thanks bro

Matt can also use Biochar to fertilize his farm and he will triple his feeds. he can do a field test using biochar.

Nigeria Herdsmen need this education.

The interviever is so proffessional

Conserved energy not the ones that are taking laps round the world😂 Great advice

Huyu ni fayaaaa

The man is passionate thank you for the information it will help my feedlot too

Thank you so much for sharing. God bless you

Kali

I can listen to Muthama the whole day

KNOWN TO UNKNOWN instead of unknowing to known I love this man. and previously he also said that rain is a substitute for irrigation. I wish he had a KZfaq channel. I would be his first subscriber.

Are all the 1200 confined on the 50m by 200m feedlot ? Gud work wish you all the best mark.

You also need to invest in automatic water fire sprinklers because if you have a fire 🔥 accident there at your hay storage it will be catastrophic.

Just curious how 1kg per day would double weight of the animal in 3 months?

Also, consider making silage from your maize crop at milk stage

kAZI SAFI

And there you have it.

Alot of takeaways. So basically Kenya does not need to import any food. 1. Even in the driest areas these areas can produce food. 2. Secondly one can use ocean water to farm as long as the soil is well fertilized. 3.Thirdly its so sad the county govt can not advise the residence to practice a modern way of farming. Just a few tweaks and his neighbours who practice traditional ways of farming are unwilling to adopt this new method. I think the reason is they can not afford to buy the high breed seeds thus they chose to recycle the seeds. 4.What they can do they can act as contract farmers for Mr. Muthama. he provides the seeds and know how and they supply him with maize for his cattle and even have extra for their own consumption. 5. Mr. Muthama has a vision to be an exporter of beef to Middle east and the area is conducive since its close to Lamu port His vision is to have 10,000 goats and 1200 beef cattle at any one time, expand his feeds storage capacity to hold 100,000 bales of feeds meaning he will increase his goat and beef capacity to may be double or triple to hwta he has not to become a consistent supplier of beef to the middle east. 6. The entire Lamu region and hinterland can become an export beef hub if this type of animal feedlot can be replicated in the entire region can Kenya can be the major supplier of beef to Middle east. The middle east gets their beef from Australia which is thousands of miles away, and Kenya can be a very competative market for beef export to the Middle east if the govt can put its head together and support people like Muthama to create feed lots in the entire coastal. The value chain will also create jobs for feeds growers, transporters and employ folk to work on these feed lots

Hello.am so much inspired with your feedlot..i want to your farm

The presentation is inhibited by the farmer's demeanor...Kamujuaji kiasi

Very good farm I am Richard MUNDERE from Rwanda be part of the people to be trained?

How many acres do you have that accommodate 1200 cows and 10000 goats?

How old are sim sim before cutting and silage?

60acres for 250 bags? An acre of land can give you 40 bags of maize. 60 acres would give 2400 bags. I think he made a mistake and meant 2500 bags on 60acres

Where can i get simsim seeds and which company?

With all these investment and operational cost, I am afraid it will take a long time to break even. But it is a good thing to be optimistic....

🔥🙏

Puff adder, I done with farming

Whats the mix content of the feeed

Am so furious the video just ended too much love from Zimbabwe👌💯

yes yes yes

My dream

This informative, rise Africa rise. However your steers are given to much space per m^2 which allows them to use too much energy.

If your well water is saline....you can add crushed sea shells into the water....it should be crushed into powdered form...it will balance the PH and make the water taste/look great.

I wish I knew how much it would real require me to start something like this 😕

You are well knowledgeable. How can we get your contact to visit your farm?

"It makes alot of sense"

Hiyo brown ni sahiwal.

Kenya and ethiopia borana plateau in africa is the original home of the boran cow breed and galla goats.

So lake turkana can also be used to grow crops. The water is saline but not very saline. if Matt can use the water from his wells which have triple salinity due to the salt factory that makes salt causing the ground water to be salty than sea water so i can imagine Lake turkana water can be used for irrigation.

How much is a young boran bull
