Dear Diary, We have finally started harvesting our beans in Batches.The rain stopped early and it affected the butter beans,we learnt a lesson: *Butter beans requires more rain fall than iron beans.We will improve on this lesson next year InshaAllah. 4 Likes 1 Share

Your beans looks luxuriant and nice to behold! Please, i) What spacing did you use within rows? - They appear fairly compacted ii) What selective herbicide did you use? - That did not hurt the beans at this stage of foliage Thanks Maryam1234: 1 Like |

RelevantUpdates:The park has become a shadow of itself,the structures are still here but the place is not functional anymore.The site surrounding the park has been bought over by Dantata/Sawoe they intend building an Estate (Live close to Nature) here. My farm is adjacent The Zuma Rock from back, another one is situated at the back of one of the twin rock.We also have one close to Asphalt Company;all within the same vicinity.Distance from my house to the farm is 15 minutes walk by foot.Thanks for finding this thread noteworthy,God bless you. 3 Likes |

Dear Diary, We have harvested all the beans, next step is pounding or beating to seperate the chaff from the good beans.Did I mentioned we've started cooking the beans already? Oh yes! No time to check time. It was a tiring experience,we contracted some women to help hasten the harvest as herder's have started scavenging for foliage with immediate effect, imagine a Fulani boy waiting with his cattles for you to finish before entering your farm, it's damn serious. This one even speaks Hausa ( An'gama?Have you finished? As if na their rights to enter the farm Omo by force harvesting started, we left the farm very late immediately our neighbors came because those Fulani nor want go.Our neighbor has to employ one of the Fulani boy to help him cut his Sorghum;the man was scared like he had a bitter experience with them before. The soil covering the Bambara nut is so strong that it's making the digging process difficult,we regretted not digging up during the raining season but no wahala,we will be digging it for fun intermittently as we progress. To all my readers, Thanks for the motivation to keep on updating Much Love 5 Likes |
