“ However, like every business, you have to learn how it is done, so as not to run into trouble.

Every business is a risk because, at your best, you cannot prevent some unforeseen circumstances but there are different ways of minimising the risks to reduce the effects as much as possible.”


What is Charcoal


Charcoal is a dark grey residue consisting of Carbon and any remaining ash, produced by the slow process of heating wood and other substances in the absence of oxygen called Pyrolysis. It is an impure form of Carbon, which contains ash.

However, it is an excellent domestic fuel, and can be made from virtually any organic material like wood, coconut shells rice husks and bones. Usually hardwood species like Acacia, Mangroves, Oaks and Prosopis are preferred for Charcoal production.

Charcoal though an old source of energy, is as well still a modern source of energy for Cooking in both rural and urban centres. Charcoal in addition, is now an export commodity in Nigeria, with a large market in the EU, USA and Asia. The prices range from $170 -$300/ton depending on the packaging. Tropical Africa accounts for 70% of the exports and the market is all year round with a slight drop between July and September.

Indeed the charcoal industry is a multibillion dollar global industry. According to The Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) of the United Nations, over 40million metric tonnes of charcoal are consumed globally and approximately 2.4billion people rely on wood and charcoal for their daily fuel.

Nigeria currently ranks second to Brazil in the production of charcoal. The western countries particularly prefer Nigeria’s charcoal, as the country is rich in tropical hardwood, which burns slower and is hotter. Nigeria currently exports 380,000 metric tonnes of charcoal annually.

“Do not wait to be told again this year. Indeed cashew is now the real cocoa, the return on its investment is massive”

Cashew Nut - the real money ritual


Today, major production of cashews occurs in Vietnam, Nigeria, India and Ivory Coast. Cashew nuts are produced in tropical countries because the tree is frost sensitive, adapting to various climatic regions between the latitudes of 25°N and 25°S

In 2013, the world total for production of cashew nuts (in shells) was 4.4 million metric tons. Its cultivation in Nigeria made the country the top African exporter with about 950,000 metric tons.

The Shea butter industry in Nigeria is dominated by small scale with production capacity of less than 0.1 tons per day. The production plants are usually found in south western part of Nigeria, where there is a large market for the product.

Nutrition

In a 100 gram serving, raw cashews provide 553 calories, 67% of the Daily Value (DV) in total fats, 36% DV of protein, 13% DV of dietary fiber and 11% DV of carbohydrates (table).[17] Cashews are rich sources (> 19% DV) of dietary minerals, including particularly copper, manganese, phosphorus and magnesium (79-110% DV), and of thiamin, vitamin B6 and vitamin K (32-37% DV) (table).[17] Iron, potassium, zinc and selenium are present in significant content (14-61% DV) (table).[17] Cashews (100 grams, raw) contain 113 mg of beta-sitosterol.

Uses

Cashew nut is basically use for cooking oil - a dark yellow oil for cooking or salad dressing pressed from cashew nuts. At the same time its fleshy part - cashew apple can be eaten fresh, cooked in curries, or fermented into vinegar, as well as an alcoholic drink.

Shea butter is mainly used in the cosmetics industry for skin- and hair-related products (lip gloss, skin moisturizer, creams and emulsions, and hair conditioners for dry and brittle hair). Shea butter is edible and is used in food preparation in Africa. Occasionally, the chocolate industry uses shea butter mixed with other oils as a substitute for cocoa butter, although the taste is noticeably different. Shea butter melts at body temperature. Proponents of its use for skin care maintain that it absorbs rapidly into the skin, acts as a "refatting" agent, and has good water-binding properties. Shea butter melts at body temperature.
