Rice Farming by Aboguede(m): 12:28pm On Jul 25, 2023
We started some rice farming and I will update the tread according to the journey.


At this stage, we have already done land preparations and we have also planted the rice. We planted a faro 44 rice variety.

The land is 5 plots 50by100 and it is a low land and has enough water retention.

We planted the rice directly to the soil and today is about 5 days since we planted and there has been rain about twice already

The place was used for cucumber about two years ago and at the time I took the land, it was very bushy so I hired about 6 labourers to clear it and then after the clearing the we did the levelling and tilling.

From the photo u can see that there are lot of water in the land and that will help since we are not using controlled irrigation system rather we depend 9n rain and it is still july so many more rain expected at least till September. Though it is because of location and climate of this rigion which has enough rain even till November
