Hello Hive

Here is one of the piece of our lands where the planted groundnuts dried up and we were unable to harvest a thing. Alot was spent on this land to grow the groundnuts starting with clearing and cultivation of the land which we we paid some labourers to assist us with that hard labour.

Next we have purchases some groundnut seedlings which we planted. The seeds were very expensive at the and about 1.6kg of groundnut weight were sold for $3.

Having purchased and and planted the groundnuts here, everything was going on well for the germinated plants before the dry spells of the month of August came and damaged this portion. The groundnuts were in their first stage flowering and growth and the short drought was pretty hard on them. There was no way they could recover when the rains returned.

Rather than leave the land without growing a thing in it, we have decided to pull up all the corn stalk and prepare the land to plant some beans.

From now till December one can still grow beans especially the type of specie we have which I have showed us yesterday that it produced some food within just one month of planting it.

We started with uprooting all the burnt groundnut plant earlier and then now we are uprooting the corn.
Since the ridges are still in tack and the place is not totally covered in grasses we can plant the 2month lifecycle beans which we can begin harvest as from the month of November all through till the year ends.
That way we can still utilize the land for something useful rather than waste so much to prepare the land for planting crops and getting nothing out of it the whole year.
