My Groundnut Pilot Farm that ended in Theft
#1
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.

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.
