This evening I decided to take a walk to my beans farm and see how is germinating. I wanted to go since in the morning but there was a heavy rainfall through out the morning to afternoon, is this evening that the rain stopped. So, since I have already made up my mind to go to farm in the morning but couldn't go because of the rain this evening I took a walk to farm. I saw the beans, it's looks good and beautiful to my eyes and the farm is looking neat because two days ago my siblings went to the farm and weed it. We are lucky there was not rainfall for past two days that made the weeded grass dried up quickly till today and am sure that's why the farm is very neat and clean.
This kind of particular beans takes 40 days before harvesting. Last year we got about 3 basic of beans harvested from this particular farm. This year we decided to plant more in order to harvest more than the way we harvested last year. Beans is very good, in our house almost everyone likes eating beans so much especially my mother and my father.
My mother can cook only the beans and eat it. But most at times the beans can be cooked with rice as joloff rice, with yam as yam porridge, beans and spaghetti. One can cook beans with so many other food ingredients. So, because beans can be cook with different food items that's why we want to have it in abundance in our house. Other people have beans farm for business purposes, like after harvesting it they will take it to the market and sell it. Beans is very important because is a proteinous food that gives strength to the body system.
But our house we are farming beans for consumption sake or domestic purposes, not to sell it or commercial purposes. Most people that have beans farm for business purposes often have the farmland in a big or large quantity. Some people during harvesting beans they will have more than one to two bags, depending how many measures of beans they have sow in the farmland. Farming beans is good and important among the farm produces.
I went to the see how the beans farm is growing and I saw is germinating good and is in a good condition. I wanted to know either to see if cow graze at it or insect have destroyed it, but when I saw the beans I was so excited with the level of the growth. This beans farm is two weeks now, hoping after 40 days it will be ready for harvesting and for consumption. Rain fell heavily today, yet I decided to walk down to the farm and take a glace at the beans farm because I wasn't among my siblings that went for the weeding of the beans farm two days ago.
I put on my jacket to reduce or covered myself from contacting cold and stroll down to the farm. Even though there's still cold outside but with this jacket I wear, am ok with the weather. One good thing about farming beans is that it doesn't require fertilizer on it, one won't spend any money to buy fertilizer in order to apply in the farm like other farm produces. You will just buy chemical and spread on it. The chemical will make your beans grow very good and healthy, and even kíll those insects that might be trying to destroy the seed or crop.
Right now, I'm hoping to have money, I will buy chemicals and spread on it. Seeing this beans , am sure it will grow very well and have bountiful harvest after 40 days.
Farming is good, when you farm that particular harvest will help you in one way or the other. The money you might want to buy that particular thing will be used for another thing. I love how my beans farm is germinating and I know it will gives me a good harvest.
