An Insight of Technological development on Agriculture.

 Nigeria, as one of the best food producing country, needs some electronic innovation  in the field of agriculture. Monitoring and control of farming  environment play a crucial role in farming production and  management. Farm lands and plantations in Nigeria and  west African countries are usually very large scale running thousands of acres and in most cases fencing these large  expanses of land are prohibitively expensive and really overwhelming.  Farmers therefore act by putting together fences using  sticks and ropes and these provide the individual security measure  they can adopt. These security measures are feather-brained and really ineffective as intruders can easily jump them and move  away with the yielding amount of crops as they will carry them without the  knowledge of the owners, especially when such fences are erected around dark crevices.

Since then what are our assessment.!           A woman that was given birth to in 1960 would have gotten to her retirement age in Nigeria, If all thing been equally she would have given birth in her 20’s to 30’s she would have fully grown children and grand children so 60 years is enough for a country like Nigeria to be fully grown.
