Planting Cassava In Fiji As A Family_VLOG 123
Waking up early, and planting cassava with Jon's parents, Luvu and Judy, alongside Eliki and Seva - Jon's sons.
We kicked off our day by heading to the farm, where we set up a tarpaulin shed and made a fire to make tea.
While Luvu and Judy expertly cut the cassava stems, the grandkids filled the air with laughter, exploring and playing around the farm. Simultaneously, Jon and the boys took charge of rotovating the field, preparing the soil for the cassava planting.
Amidst the activities, Luvu, Jon's dad, shared heartfelt moments as he expressed how much he loves engaging in these activities. He spoke about the joy of spending time with his son and grandsons, making the day even more special.
The vlog captures a blend of laughter, family bonding, hard work, and collective effort as we worked together on the farm. It was a day filled with love, sweat, and the joy of being surrounded by family.- Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe to our channel for more heartwarming family adventures!

Didn’t think about that actually!
when i went to boarding school at Marist Brothers High at Suva, i was given a list of what to bring with me ...a mosquito net, pillows and blankets and a cane knife. Yes, a cane knife..because after school we were all required to go to the plantation behind the school to clear the weeds and grown our own dalo and cassava

Kawai is my favourite starch in Fiji (the bright purple adds a great splash of colour too). Not a great fan of just boiled Cassava, but cassava chips are great!

Agreed cassava chips are delish! Kawai is a very special treat
13:05 All varieties of cassava contain hydrogen cyanide, no exceptions. Concentration of cyanide differs across the different varieties, nonetheless ALL contain cyanide. Cyanide "boils off" when cooking (boiling/baking) the cassava, hence no problem eating it after it's cooked properly.

Correct! The University of South Pacific released a technical report which confirms all varieties of Cassava, grown in Fiji, contain cyanide. I thought I saw a link to this report in a reply to this vlog but it was removed!?

Do the boys know any Hindi as well as Fijian? I know a lot of the locals around there speak all 3 languages really well.

No not too much actually.
Do you export your cassava or just sell it at a market? I prefer the yellow ones and I love making chips (french fries) with them, better than the potato version.

@@WakaFamilysame here too in Nadi. $100- $150. Lately theres hardly any cassava in Namaka Market. Twice my mum had to buy dalo and it was less quantity. Disappointed that farmers here in Nadi are not into cassava planting to meet the demands.
