A TALE OF FARM PRACTICAL YEAR (FPY) CHRONICLES FUNAAB


THE FPY CHRONICLES 2018...

Agriculture contributes at all levels in a man’s daily activities. Either directly or indirectly, people, goods, offices, companies, private sectors, communities, and the likes of other unseen activities across the universe rotate around the orbit of agriculture. No matter how you want to view it at all levels, agricultural contribution to the growth and development of a country through food provision and shelter alone is one thing you wouldn’t want to push aside. The use of cassava pills to erect buildings in modern technique of house construction is an amazing invention, all thanks to agricultural products and fabulous Agriculturists across the globe who could see beyond electron microscope.


Now, Let’s Talk About FPY Chronicles.

The acronym FPY means Farm Practical Year, and to break it down, it simply means that the year has been designed for agricultural practices for a defined level (4th year in the University) to levitate agricultural importance and build a structure where people could have enough and better understanding of what they’ve been writing and reading since their inception into the university of agriculture through frequent daily practices. The farm practical year is solely for efficient practice throughout the period and a very promising one at that.

The word chronicles simply means a written account of events and when they happened (annals, archives, chronicon, diary, history, journal, narration, prehistory, recital, record, recountal, register, report, story, version…) ordered by time. We could simply say a creation of record base on written facts.


To achieve this great movement, FPY students of 2017/18 set have to work together with the sole aim of laying a solid foundation for the upcoming ones, letting them have a good mindset about agriculture and the FPY as a whole, correcting the fact that the farm practical year is not a year of movies and freebies but a year to bring to existence the real practice of agriculture with our bare hands, and also to engage ourselves in practicing the real agriculture as a bonafide educated young farmer.  


 Being the first of its kinds, FPY chronicles will be a source of empowerment to every student who participates with full commitment and dedication to work hard as a team but not individual inclination, as we all know that togetherness is the key to achieving set of goals in life, and it goes a long way in helping us all.
We are going to have batch representatives at all locations that will lead the team and make sure proper records are taken at each sections or work done units. The use of cameras for video shoots, photos of activities on the farm and the likes of other things done on the farm will be put to record in collation at the end of everyday activities and the unit representatives will collate the results of the day.
We want people to see us as leaders of today and as agriculturists with clear vision and passion for the economy. We want to reduce the rate of negative believes in agriculture in various students’ minds and also increase the rate at which youths will be interested in studying agriculture.
We need cooperation, togetherness, unity, commitment, understanding and willingness to achieve this movement.

CRISTIANO RONALDO IS A GREAT MENTOR.

PONDER IT TWICE: CRISTIANO RONALDO IS A GREAT MENTOR. When we talk of leadership and mentorship, it doesn't end at academics, politics, entertainment and the likes. The world of sports, especially football has produced exceptional leaders across the continents. From Madeira, a Portuguese star, Cristiano Ronaldo Alveiro has demonstrated a great deal of leadership and mentorship with his indefatigable and astonishing performance in the world of football. This guy is amazing! Cr7 is a goal lord, a great example for hard work and commitment. In this guy I have learnt a lot of things viz; 1. Perseverance. 2. Commitment. 3. Courage. 4. Confidence. 9. Beliefs. 6. Competence. 7. Consistency. 8. Focus. 9. Determination and 10. Drive... Among others. When asked 3 years ago about the time he would stop football he said; when I can no longer play again. At age 33 he still scores 14 champions league goals in 9 champions league matches. He has demonstrated a go

CUTTING THE HEAD IS NOT THE ANTIDOTE FOR HEADACHE.

RUNNING AWAY IS NOT THE SOLUTION BUT STAYING TO CORRECT THE ERROR!  It was great discussing solutions with these great people yesterday (Prof. Mrs. Ashimolowo, Mr. Babs Alabi and Mr. Mubarak) at Funaab radio 89.5fm, the sound of abundance. See video on Instagram @mr_egalitarianworldmotivates and also YouTube @ Mr. Egalitarian World Motivates...  There's one thing that is sure in this life, consistency can never be underrated, even if it is just selling some few commodities, with consistency you can go places. Dream big, follow your instinct, believe in yourself and pray in your way, so far you're talking to the one God.  This is just the result of consistency, yet, I have a lot to learn. Like I would always say; hard work works, working really hard is what successful people do. The decision is in your hands, either you want to be part of the "get rich quick" syndrome or you want to explore in the right way to stardom, you cut your coat according to you

GET DIRTY, HAVE CLUES.

PONDER IT TWICE: GET DIRTY, HAVE CLUES. In agriculture there is no such thing like "I am a clean dude" I can't carry anything. You just have to carry things with your head since you have no other alternatives as a subsistence agricultural farmer. But that doesn't mean you can't also look for other means to make it simple, such as using wheel barrow or other easier means. The harvested crops just have to get to its destination for processing.  It was ethic at first while in the bush trying to harvest cassava, but when it got to an extent I had to behave like a real farmer. We are practicing subsistence agriculture for now anyway, but commercial means of farming is on its way... Get dirty to get ideas, practical skills and exposure rather than getting clean to be clueless on the field. Agriculture is all about getting dirty most times.  #DO AGRIC, IT PAYS. #ponderittwice #weneedempowermentineducation #youthsarelost #communication&skill #itbeg
