Me Working On My Melon (egusi) Farm This Morning (35125 Views)

(4)

(1) Go Down)

maasoap(m): 7:36am On Apr 27, 2024
The journey started towards the end of February when I started the clearing of the yet to be developed 5 plots of land around my house.
I have two reasons for doing this:
One: to push the busy around my house back
Two: to get me busy every morning before I go out for the day as I actually have plenty of time on my hand grin
I equally bought and planted hybrid of water melon among the melon, about 100 seeds for N4500.
This was planted middle of March after the first rain.

This is beautiful
Where's the location of your farm?

We've not really started farming normal In the North because of lack of rainfall..

We're praying for May to be nice

Amen. Thanks.
I would have loved maize and melon inter cropping but goats wouldn't let me take the risk of planting maize in an open place like this.
But we just planted maize on a partially fenced plot of land beside me. If I can't go through the trouble of barricading it, madam has volunteered to use cow manure on it regularly to keep goats away from it. We will see how it goes

Even in the south, rain hasn't been falling regularly. People who want to plant maize are just starting

Beware of herdsmen that derive great pleasure in attacking farmers and trampling on their crops

I pray cows don’t enter your farm. That wicked act is what’s causing this food scarcity as well

Don't Tap into his Blessing. You people always attached evet to religion. Wake up and raise your But up from the sofa and do exactly what the man man did instead of Tapoing to unseen things. Practice it.
