Full Version: My Groundnut Pilot Farm that ended in Theft
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
3 months ago I planted small portion with groundnut to test. I've never grown it before.

Everything went well. It was more than 10x easier than growing cucumber. But as harvest approach, a thief came and harvested everything this morning.

The ones I managed to harvest is shown below.

This is one of the silent challenges farmers face. But it won't discourage me from planting plenty groundnut, ginger, tumeric and pepper this year. So long as the thief keeps coming, I'll soon catch him/her. With God, there is no problem without solution.
Sorry about this. It hurts to lose a crop after months of work.
Thanks bro.
Wishing you a better season ahead.
Don’t let this discourage you. Groundnut is still a great crop. Target and capture the thieves. Install outdoor cameras.
This is one of the reasons many people don’t understand the
struggles of farmers. May God reward your efforts.
Sorry, boss. Next time, may your harvest be protected from planting to storage.
Keep going. Every successful farmer has stories of setbacks. Better days are ahead.
So painful. Three months of hard work taken away in one morning. I
pray you recover quickly.
Your determination is inspiring. I hope you catch whoever is responsible.
At least your pilot farm proved that groundnut grows well for you. That’s valuable knowledge for the next planting.
Thanks every one
God will restore everything you lost. Don’t give up.
This is why farmers deserve more respect. People only see the food, not the sacrifices.
Your positive attitude is the best part of this story. Instead of quitting, you’re planning to plant even more.
Groundnut is indeed easier than many crops. I hope your next harvest reaches the market safely.
Every setback carries a lesson. May this experience lead to stronger security and a much bigger harvest.
Your faith is encouraging. With persistence and God’s help, you’ll
overcome this challenge.
Thanks all
The thief took one harvest, but not your knowledge or experience. Those are worth far more in the long run.
