Hello Hive

A happy weekend to us all, I hope that we are all having a good time in sound health of mind and body. It's a good time to relax this weekend and I wish us all the best of it.

After our round of activities in the farm yesterday I noticed some villagers here and their vegetable beds. They were carrying buckets of water and trying to water the veggies. This made me to remember how long we have been in this system and have also watered our veggies with buckets and cups before.
Every peasant farmer is trying to grow some veggies by the river as well but compared to the more stressleas mechanized methods we use I just feel for this people.

With a pumping generator set we are able to grow veggies on a larger space of land and within the shortest time possible.
Buy trying to use buckets to fetch water from the river to water vegetables and grow these plant will only limit people to growing veggies on a very smaller piece of lands. For this type they can only grow veggies that is sufficient for their family use and not so much that they can sell in the markets.

The importance of technology in our lives cannot be overemphasized. Engaging in irrigation farming using generator sets makes farming much easier, the pumping machines available here is often leased fo us for use, it is fairly expensive and not everyone can afford it. Hence these sets are made available for people to lease, the overall cost of borrowing the machine may be high in the end, the best approach is to purchase one for personal use.

Much as these technologies are with us now, it is important to use them wisely and avoid potential side effects, because of the ease of growing crops, some people often add fertilizers in these veggies in excess that some vegetables are planted and ready for consumption in less than a month. This is unhealthy, due to the fact that it is now less stressstreasful to water the plant and grow veggies, it does not in anyway encourage people to grow unhealthy foods as fast as they can. Let's be mindful of the foods we grow and sell to people in our markets. This technology are all good when utilized properly and not to hasten personal profits and gains at the expense of the health of people.
