HELLO HIVE

Fuel spikes all over the country has taken so strange effects on irrigation farming with so many farmers struggling to keep their farms wet during this period, the number of times that farmers wet their crop are now been managed to an extent so that the spending wouldn't go beyond what we can manage. There are different crops that are dominating this season and vegetables are the most popular one of them with their aggressive need for water on a daily basis leaving farmers with no other options than to irrigate them manually.

So far the maize is doing okay and it is not showing any sign of damage due to the extreme weather ☁️ conditions which means that a lot of money is going into it for fuel and other things so that we can keep things going as it ought to be we can't just abandon the shift we've put in because of the hike in fuel price but it has not been easy in any way.

So times we underestimate the effects of some of this issues in farming but we never really know how bad this can effect the price of food in the market and it has already started doing so since the turn of events with food stuff being sold at an high standard price and everyone is struggling hard to manage this price increase as it should be.

For now everything is okay we are coping with this hikes but any other increase might just throw so many farming activities out of balance and price might even hit staggering values than they are now .
