Hello Hive

This is our Sorghum farm that almost got flushed away by rains. I'm so glad that the flood of water that passed by here didn't eventually carry them away.

We are now finally able to go near the farm, there is a river very close to this Sorghum farm that often overflows it's boundary and passes right beside the farm. Sorgum is the only crop that can grow here, no other crop would have survived with the amount of water that has passed by this place.

See the route where the water flowed over, nothing survived on the place except for grasses that have just started growing and for that we also have to come and clear the grasses round about the farm, in no distant time from now people will start burning grasses for hunting and we won't want any forest fire to catch up with this.

The Sorghum is yet to produce it's food despite being planted in the month of July. Even though the rains have stopped already, we are hopeful that these will be able to produce something within the next one month before the ground gets really dried

Sorghum is one of the crops that I know quite well that they are very much adapter to dry conditions as they can survive for about a month or two whenever there is no water.

It was a good thing that these Sorgum were able to grow to a good height above the ground before the flood water came. This is why they were equally able to survive and the more reason we chose to plant this specie of sorghum here rather than the one we were introduced to in the previous. Getting farm lands to farm on these days is a bit difficult and we are trying to work around the ones we have which is why we can't suspend growing crops around this water ways yet. Whenever the water comes, we stay away completely until it is safe to come near the crops again.
