good day mondo farms i have been following your videos since last year and you have inspired me a lot ....may God bless you.... watching from Congo DR in Lubumbashi town
Thanks 😊 Yes, we grew a bit of cassava this season because my wife loves it. Just harvested it last week. Took it to market and found the most insulting, ridiculous prices ever. The market is flooded with it this time of year. We actually ended up keeping enough for home consumption and giving away the rest to our staff. We will not be growing cassava much again in the future, apart for enough for home consumption.
There is an excellent regenerative agriculture based on agricultural design, water management and polyculture. The name of this extremely good agriculture technique is called permaculture. Great practitioners of this technique: Example: Richard Perkins of Sweden, Geoff Lawton of Australia. Look into it.
Soya beans is a crop that needs both water and heat. Sonit is usually grown in the hot and wet season. But I suppose it is possible if one has the means to irrigate.
Wow. Many of us in Africa don't yet have the luxury of making such choices. We're still at the bottom of Maslows hierarchy of needs, and food security for our growing population is a real issue.
Yes, we know that and accept it as one of the many sad realities of farming in the real world. 😢 If you watch the video again, with an open mind, you may begin to pick up my overall tone of regret for the way we have to do things. I express several hints and even have a section where we highlight our efforts to protect our people who have to do the spraying. Herbicides and pesticides are a necessary evil that allows us to feed the growing population and ensure food security for our continent. Honestly, we farmers often find ourselves stuck between a rock and a hard place with such things.
You’re 100% correct. Farming is a science. No 2 ways about it especially when you’re farming as a business.

Absolute legend! Hope someday you can teach me and help set me a farm!
Thanks 😊
Mr Folotiya, you are such an inspiration. I hope to meet you one day and learn more from you.

Thanks. I have known about Permaculture for a few years now, and we shall incorporate it into our farms as time goes on.
Can one plant soya in the dry season
Soya beans is a crop that needs both water and heat. Sonit is usually grown in the hot and wet season.
But I suppose it is possible if one has the means to irrigate.
So here in Canada I don’t eat anything with soya where is your soya from?
Wow. Many of us in Africa don't yet have the luxury of making such choices.
We're still at the bottom of Maslows hierarchy of needs, and food security for our growing population is a real issue.
Do you export soya beans ?
No, local demand took up everything this year.
In fact, Zambia is a net importer of soya beans.
Thank you
You need to dig a little deeper into ising herbicide it does affect the crops
