Quick money is guaranteed for you if you can start a business of harvesting and selling Bamboo Sticks today. I am again back to the agricultural sector and this business idea is one of the unpopular ventures which has busy raising secret millionaires over the years. When I was still in the university, I once collaborated with the indigenes of the town where I was residing and did this business with them to earn some money for myself. There are jobs to do but we all want it the easy way forgetting the fact that nothing good comes so easy. Now if you are interested in going into this business to work hard and earn your living, follow me on this article word to word, read on and you will finally see yourself at the top.

The Bamboo sticks are tall strong and semi-elastic sticks that are sourced from Bamboo tree plantations. The stick has cylindrical segments with a large holes at the centre naturally joined together at edges as they grow into very tall sticks. Among the Igbo people in Nigeria, the stick is known either as 'Achalla' or 'Otosi'. Even great and strong men in Igboland take the name as their Chieftaincy Titles because it presents them as great men of valour and increases their dignity. The bamboo tree is one of the all-purpose trees in the world in addition to the palm trees. No part of this tree is a waste and it grows in and out of seasons.

Interestingly, they grow naturally in a conducive land even without being planted. Mainly, they grow very well in tropical rain forests where you will find large and small water bodies like rivers and streams. This helps them to easily absorb water as they grow into tall green and strong trees. And to cap it all, these trees grows as fast as possible. As the older stems gets longer, younger ones automatically sprout out through the buds to replace them as soon as they are cut. If you look around in most idle farmlands, I guess you will see the Bamboo trees there. Apart from just the Igboland, they grow in many other locations of the world and virtually everywhere.

When it comes to what bamboo sticks are used for then, I must tell you that the list is as endless as the skies. Basically, bamboo sticks when harvested and cut into desired pieces are used as firewoods. Also, crop farmers of climbing plants like yam and fluted pumpkin slice them into long pieces and use the sticks as a climbing apparatus that will provide support for their plants as they grow. Not only that, house builders also use bamboo sticks to build a support framework around a construction project so as to get all parts of the building within their reach as they render their services.

Bamboo sticks are also used by artists for craftworks and for design purposes too. In most places, bamboos are also used to build Bamboo houses. Some farmers also use bamboo sticks to make their farm fences, yam and cocoyam bans, harvesting sticks for tall trees, supporting sticks for falling trees like bannana and plantain stems and for many other miscellaneous purposes. The leaves of bamboo trees are used by some traditional health practitioners to prepare their herds and healing portions for a wide range of diseases and health problems. I cannot just say it all because the utilities into which the bamboo tree can be put is quite inexhaustible.

You can start a business that deals in the harvesting and selling of bamboo sticks and make a lot of money from it. In a town or city, a long bamboo stick is sold for as high as N1,000 or even N1,500. Assuming you have a land where they grow freely in large numbers then, I have to change your name to 'Goodluck' because you have already made it in life. This is because you will get them for free and sell them off to make unlimited profits. But for those who do not have a land where bamboo trees grow, you can either buy one from a seller or pay other owners of Bamboo lands situated in remote areas and villages to cut bamboo sticks from their lands.

Once an affordable bargain price per bamboo stick cut is agreed on, start harvesting them at once. Such land owners can charge you as low as N200 per stick cut. That is an attractive business deal because after cutting and transporting them to your selling point somewhere in the city, you will make an estimated gross profit as high as of N1,300 on each of the sticks and still have a big net profit left for you to enjoy after putting your transport costs, labour costs, loading and offloading charges as well as other miscellaneous costs into consideration.

Find a selling spot somewhere in a strategic corner around the cities or towns where you can display and store your bamboo sticks for sale to customers. If you can get a spot near a building material market, cement block and concrete product industry, a fast developing estate, a growing industrial layout and other good places, it will be very nice for you because your potential customers always come around such areas. Ensure that you dry your bamboos under the sun so as to make them stronger before you sell out. Dried bamboo sticks has a higher market value than the moist ones. As your customers come, strike profitable sales bargains with them and deliver your products for the money. You can even earn more money by charging them extra fees for loading the sticks or for transporting the bamboo sticks to them as the case may be.

Your potential customers includes builders, contractors, farmers, households, among others. Please always take good care of your health and handle bamboo sticks with a great degree of care because even though they are highly priced and valuable economic commodities, they can inflict serious lifetime injuries on people when they are handled roughly. The bamboo sticks and leaves are as sharp as swords and spears.

Many people have lost their sights and sustained other bizarre forms of injuries and wounds from this business. That is why you must be careful so as to reap the benefits that accrues from the business in a good state of mind and body. From the harvesting to the transportation, loading and offloading of bamboo sticks, exercise extreme care as you handle them. At any slightest tough, they can tear the skin and even while cutting them into pieces, a flake of the sticks can dart into the eyes or pierce the body. That is why they are cut slantly and not directly. The experienced people here will definitely know what I am talking about.

Also, use and apply pesticides around your the display and storage spot for your bamboo sticks as to ward off termites and pests from attacking and destroying your merchandise and reducing their quality as well as market value. For other helpful tips and information that will help you to successfully set up and run this business profitably, please seek the consultancy and advice from an experienced expert in the field and get guided into the right path and direction on how to make money endlessly from the venture.
