Hello Hive
This is our Sorghum farm and in it's present condition we can't go near the farm. The evidence that this year was a year of heavy downpour can be seen right here. This river runs through the community and whenever there are heavy rainfalls it overflowed it boundaries and enters our farm.
Before now we were planning to weed grasses off the guinea corn farm before flood water came and filled up the entire farm. We have two sorghum field in different location but this one seems to produce more food every year which is why we didn't want to abandon farming here.
For this year I can even say that we are quit lucky that the guinea corns are still available, for some other years, it's either the plants gets flushed away or the water remains in the farm until everything gets rotten. This Sorgum are one of the most resilient crops that I know and regardless of how the water kept entering the farms they are still alive and strong. We haven't been able to go closer to the farm ever since the water came, there is but only one route that leads to this farm.
Sorgum is a very important crop to us and one of the cereals I won't want to stop planting anytime soon. It is very easy to grow and this sorghum along side corn forms a part of the cereals that last us throughout the year. We still have a handful of it left from what we have planted last year
It's already October and we are hoping that the rains will subside so that this Sorgum can survive and and this of our crops that are ready for harvest will not go bad. There is a lot of work to be done and we are giving our farms priorities working on each crop one at a time.
