I like cassava. It’s one of our tribal stable foods here in Uganda for the Lango tribe. I like it cos you can eat it in various capacities like boiled and eat it with peanut paste, fried and mingled. Although recently with the introduction of GMO modified cassava which rots in the garden just after 1 year unlike the traditional one which usually takes more than 3 years in the garden without rotting. This has made people to look for alternative stable foods. I don’t know about you guys over there in Ghana how is it

You need to do some composting and add it to the soil to improve it. Use leaves, vegetable skins etc t9 make a compost pile. You can compost in a bin plastic bin also. Gradually you can improve the soil in your garden. You can ask people to donate their cassava peel and plantsinand yam skins etc to make compost. Then add it to small sections of the garden especially at the root of your plants. Dig the hole to plant tour cassava or seeds and fill it with compost and soil.

Use a hoe not shovel or panga 😂. Also add water overnight as too dry. You can dry some of the harvest and pound for fufu or fry for snack. So happy to see dad showing the kids and wife how it’s done 👍🏿👌🏿. The children are attentive and well mannered and peaceful and humble and interested in their African heritage. Kudos to the parents even though they are from different races, they are a great example of how similar we all are if we work together. So proud of you especially the father for relocating the family back to Africa and providing leadership as the head of the family. Cheers to the mother too as she’s the one who provided the nurturing. Thanks 👏🏿. To preserve water, you should use the rain water that you trapped via the roof and water tank. Can’t wait to see the yam harvest. Cut the cassava on the grass 😂 so no need for sweeping. Dad doesn’t crack 😂😂😂😂. Scrapping cassava after peeling removes the bitter taste of fresh cassava- also good to leave in water to get the starch out.
