    • Hello Homesteaders/Gardeners
    HAVE YOU EVER BEING INTO FARM AS A WOMAN?

    There is always a lesson to learn everyday for whosoever really want to move higher a bit. While we were growing up I happen to have a Grandma that is also a pure farmer just like my husband. But then we were not expose fully into agriculture just because we were staying with our mom. And with our mom there is no extra plot of land that can be used for farming. So we were growing up gradually but all I know as at that time was that I am interested in farming but I am not opportuned. This is why we must always make use of our opportunities in life,and we should also grab them so that it will not get out of us then we will have ourselves to blame.

    All I know also was that we always visit our grandma then back in 2019, more than 6 times in a month, I always see her when she plants are crops of different types which up to now I can also explain how she does it even as at that time. I always see her plant cocoyam, plantain, Maize, beans, pepper, Tomato. But we were not opportune to step into the farm at all due to we were small and we were not also allowed to carry hoes or cutlass.

    But to my surprise when I started dating my husband and we eventually got married things change gradually because of the nature of my husband work. He is into farming and I also learn everyday from him even with the children. I am also happy to take the full responsibility just like a farmer's wife. I learned a lot because this is where we often get our food from. Fresh From The Farm and it is very healthy. We always carry out our own farm activities in the morning or in the evening so that there will be no disturbance of the crop to the best of my knowledge.

    I also help my husband at work which makes in more happier and be also responsible even more.

    So what I know of, we have different sections of the farm which also comprises of the eggplant section we also have the animal section we have the pepper section and the vegetable section so we take them one after the other while we also make the necessary activity.

    The egg plant section is doing great because we visit all the section equally and we also attend to it. The eggplant is a very special plant because it was even when I met my husband I consume it officially. I have never seen this type of eggplant before but I have seen it in books. And at the moment we are even producing eggplants in our farm.

    When so many people see me on the farm they always ask a lot of question why am I practicing Agriculture?. I always give them a reply that agriculture is life always been a lover of planting of crops ever since I was very small. At the moment everything is extremely hard and costly but if everyone of us are into agriculture the rate at which the poverty is high will be very low and market prices will be normalized. But even to cultivate crop Is a problem. People hate dirty job.

    But my advice for women and ladies and the general public is that whenever we are opportuned to plant any type of seed we should always give it a trial. Then there will be less poverty to challenge. I am happy to be a farmer's wife and a farmer genuinely.
