How recent rainfall and floods threaten my cassava farm.
HELLO HIVE
Introduction
In recent times, nature has unleashed it's fury upon parts of the world ๐ with floods been an integral part of this threat, the general balance of things has also been affected by mans activities upon parts of the world that has acted as a big catalyst to aid the damages caused by nature on the world.
Farming activities are supposed to be supported by nature's strong activities but it is not always like we hope as things might get a little tough for farmers like me whose livelihood depends on the delicate balance of nature and the weather pattern, rivers are now flowing past their normal course and they are gradually moving to lands that are used for planting gradually draining the lands of nutrients .
Floods from other parts of the lands that are flowing towards the river are destroying the plants on their paths and uprooting others as they make their way into the river, that is the current experience of my farm.
There used to be an initial direction for the flood from heavy rainfall to flow into the river without affecting farming activities but now, that has been affected by mans activities around the floods direction which results in the flood changing its direction with the next available route been our farms, my cassava farm has been hit but not as bad as that of other farmers and as time goes on things might just get worse .
