Hello Hivers ๐๐,
Planting of crops is highly necessary in agricultural mindset this is to encourage others who are also striving so hard to be a farmer likewise people who are also in two-way direction if they should go into farming activities or not. When you set your aims and objectives as a farmer you also need to look out for some negative aspects of what you are aiming at. For every farmer like I always say, you have so many risk ahead of you to take. I will say generally speaking that when it comes to agricultural mindset taking risk is what it is been done to carry out so many activities. Let's take for example this plant is called the African spinach, this Africans Spinach is off two type and species depending on which one you have in your own country. But at the moment I have two of them in my farm. So I planted this African spinach when it was almost ending of the rainy season and it was doing well and perfectly growing up all of a sudden this came up with attack of spotted leaves, which I eventually ignore when it all started. Because it was just scanty so I thought it will just go within a shot period of time not knowing that, they will come back in full Force and it up all the leaves.
- This is to show that farmers are always at risk. When I visited this particular location sometimes ago this week they are all looking greenish and very attractive to the eyes but you can see them at the moment. The green pigment are already gone.
The most negative part of this is that when you notice that they already lay eggs on your crops for example, on Maize ๐ฝ๐ฝ, Tomato ๐ ๐, Pepper ๐ซ๐ถ๏ธ, Carrot ๐ฅ๐ฅ, Potato ๐ ๐ etc. Within 2 to 3 days they will act on it and spread out consuming all the Green leaves of the particular plant leaving it alone standing and if care is not taken it will die off.
- I recorded so many losses here because of this, I have this mobile seat bed close to 5 to 6 which I planted the African spinach and also they appetizer to the stomach vegetable. There are more risk when you reach some something type of season. This is why you need to extra careful when getting into agriculture or planning to get into it. You need a lot of patience and tolerance. Or yes you may run out of Farm activities if care is not taking.
When I got to this particular spot I was later discouraged because they destruction was massive I couldn't imagine close to 48 hours and all green pigment gone, except just few ones standing alone.
- When I moved closer again I saw all types of insects already lay eggs on the leaves. I also saw some larvae moving up and down at the top of each plant. That means that they already eaten up the lower portion of the African spinach then the move upward to consume more. This is absolutely not too easy task.
This is why I took so many pictures of this particular scene simply because we need to always be ready to face so many consequences as a farmer who is also ready to teach people how things are being done. If by chance I relate this to my neighbor farmer he will not believe what I'm saying because those African spinach were a top notch.
For any reason you want to plant any type of crops you need to always check on them regularly add more water if everyday is okay for you. Using the hand wedding method is also allow although this can be done weekend if your work schedule is very tight. You can make it once in a week. But if you have the normal regular time you can always visit your farm and Weed everyday or every other day. It will also Assist in crop growth and development.
