Threshing Cowpea/soybean Harvested During Rainy Season by Arbayong(m): 6:52pm On Apr 25 |
I am a Ghanaian who's enjoyed NLF for more than a decade. I plan to cultivate cowpea and soybean now to be harvested around late July. It will still be raining small small. I'm from the north where the crop dries before we harvest but I bought farmland in the south where they farm twice a year. We just cut or uproot the beans in the north and put the whole plant in the thresher without picking the pods. I would like to know if this is also possible for beans harvested in July as there may be a little more moisture. It would be difficult picking the pods from 5 to 15 acres before threshing. Thanks |

Arbayong: Do beans grow well in southern Ghana? It doesn't in southern Nigeria. Only grows well in far North Nigeria. 1 Like |

excanny:Thanks. Southern Ghana is not known for beings either. My farm is more in the middle of the two. Just that the second season here resembles the conditions in the north😊 |

excanny:In northern Nigeria it is planted in August/September and harvested in November. Planted when the rains are much and about to stop and harvested in dry weather |

FarmTech:I am yet to start the farm mate. But most multicrop threshers will do it. Just go to Jiji or Alibaba and look for bean thresher. I'm not sure I'm allowed to post pictures. You can go to Jiji Ghana for instance and search for multicrop threshers. There are small/medium size ones that can do maize, soybeans, sesame, millet, sunflower , sorghum etc costing about 13,000 cedi |
