HELLO HIVE
Welcome to my blog this cool weekend evening, I hope you've had a relaxing and enjoyable experience through the weekend, mine is somewhat indifferent due to some offline activities, but then today I'll love to take you through my millet farm, which is gradually approaching harvest time.
Millet is one of the most important grain food crop we have, and we use it for different food like ogi, elubo, and it's also use to feed chicken and other livestock, it's highly nutritious and rich in protein.
It's been almost three months since I planted the millet in my farmland closer to the school I once teach as a volunteer, and since the day of planting I only get to checkup on it when ever I travel to that village, but then most of the students do help me tend to the millet alongside other crops I've there.
But since I've now gotten a new job in another state, which means I might not be able to visit the farmland again, I decided to check if them millet is ready to be harvested, because it life cycle don't usually go beyond three months, but then I took some of my siblings along so they'll be familiar with the place should in case it's not ready to be harvested.
Thank God I took him along, because had I not done that, then no one would have go help me harvest the maize , because the students who usually help me with it and presently on holiday,
Getting to the farm we realize weed as grown all around the millet, although I also had some Cassava planted around the millet, but that belong to another teacher in the school, so I'm guessing he might have been the one who last clear the farmland.
With my view and the texture of the millet like I saw in the first image, I believe the millet will be ready for harvest in the next two weeks at most, and I've made plan with my siblings to help me harvest and hopefully he'll help take pictures of those moments, because I won't be around again by then.
But I look forward to having a space to start up a new farm in my new state, because I'm a person who love being self sufficient in almost all I do.
Thanks so much for checking out my blog post, have a blessed day ahead.
