How are you friends in the #homestreading community?
May we all live our days with enthusiasm and joy
I haven't visited my plantation for several months because of the rainy season and I have many other activities to do, so today I took the time to visit a plantation that I haven't seen for a long time. The journey to the plantation takes almost 1 hour from my hometown, and while traveling I saw many differences in the road to the plantation which was usually very bad and with differences which now make my heart happy on the journey.
After arriving at the plantation, I walked around looking at the situation, I had not visited for several months, and the appearance of the bushes made me feel uncomfortable. This also made it a burden for me, of course I had to spray again, as I had done last year. Then.
While traveling to other places I saw palm trees with fruit that could be harvested and this made a profit for me, of course I could sell the palm fruit and use it as money for my return home.
But I was very unlucky, I didn't bring the Egrek that I usually use, only the machete that was in my hand, this felt difficult to do because cutting the palm fronds was very hard and had lots of thorns, especially as I was very difficult at climbing up the tree, it was really very difficult for me to feel, but this was an advantage for me and I couldn't possibly leave it and especially since it was very rare for me to come to the plantation, so I decided to just cut it with a machete.
After cutting, I felt that using a machete was very difficult and took a little time on the tree, unlike the Erger that I usually use, it was quick and very easy to cut the stem, but with calmness and caution I was able to do it and take down three fruits from one palm tree at once. the.
After cutting, I placed several parts of the fronds and fruit neatly collected and I continued looking at other trees, maybe there were some that could be harvested too, so I could take them to sell.
By going around to other places I found palm trees that were still short in size and also had fruit that could be harvested even though they were a little small in appearance.
And when cutting this part of the palm tree, for me it was very young because its size almost reached me so I was very relaxed between the machetes and down the stalk of this palm fruit.
And here there is also a rotten palm fruit that I have left behind.
Additional, I took a photo of myself next to a palm tree.
After that I saw a nutmeg tree with fruit and then I also immortalized the fruit using my cellphone camera, so that you can also see the nutmeg in my plantation, and apart from being able to sell this nutmeg, it is also very good for us to consume but it tastes A little acid but contains lots of nutrients and vitamins.
Apart from wandering to other places but no sight of palm fruit that could be harvested anymore, I captured the moment of locking the stream next to the plantation and enjoying the atmosphere nearby as if it would relieve the tiredness that I had done earlier.
And then I continued to carry the fruit that I had collected earlier to take it to a closer place and bring it to my bonda.
And because I didn't bring anything that could hold palm fruit, I looked for some wood to assemble so that it could hold the palm fruit that I had harvested and put it on top of my Honda.
Once everything was lifted, I had to do the very important tying so it wouldn't fall off on the way to sell it.
After doing the things I needed to do I was finally ready to take it to the place I usually sell it.
In about a few minutes I arrived there but there was no toke where I usually sell palm fruit, but only his wife. And I asked the toke's wife, where did the husband go, and the toke's wife answered?, she had gone to see the palm oil, and surely you know that a woman cannot lift heavy palm fruit, so I had to embrace this palm fruit and put it on the scale. that's there. So I'm sorry I don't have a picture that I can share here.
And after that I went back to the plantation to get some of the equipment that I had brought earlier and when I got there the conditions in the plantation were already a bit cloudy so I didn't continue any other work because I was afraid of rain.
So today I am very happy, apart from being able to see the plantation, I also get benefits from the palm fruit and I am also very happy to be able to share moments in my plantation with all my friends in this beloved community.
That's a short story that I can share on this occasion and I'm sorry, maybe there are some pictures that I didn't show enough. I hope my friends like this post and it can entertain you all.
