    A Farmer's Tale in Pictures

    This thread will show in pictures the improvements and the work that a farmer did on his or her land.

    NapNap Area
    First, the farmer had a space of land cleared for the mini house to be built on.... The farmer thought that before any clearing or planting work is done on the land, there must be a place to shelter him/her and the workers from the harsh sun and from the rain.



    I am so unlucky that if I fall into a barrel full of D*ick**s, I'd come out sucking my own thumb!

    I think we should at least hope for a happy ending

    Not entirely sure if this lieland, fantasyland or dreamland

    This thread will show in pictures the improvements and the work that a farmer did on his or her land.?

    So is this one real location or one of those games where the foreigner is robbed buried and she trawls Pattaya for another walking ATM remains to be scene.

    It may of course be raunchy tales of the wild prairie with wild cowgilrs and brave slums of the soi

    By law, I believe, you're allowed to build a house on farming land as long as it is a wooden structure.

    My net is crappy so I'll post the burning pics tomorrow.

    After clearing, the farmer have to wait 2 weeks to 6 weeks before burning the area, depending on the size of the trees that were cut.

    The 'burn' in this particular area was real crappy coz it rained for days. When this happens, the leaves rot and they are not as flammable.

    The same thing happens in my country. Wet leaves are difficult to burn.

    Leaf compost? Would be ready in 3 months in this climate. So much better than manure or chemical fertilizers....

    The location is The Philippines, size of land is 7 hectares. I'm planning to do a spread with a 5 hectare one also, and a 12 hectare one. All in this thread.

    Sorry for posting this here, I should have posted under PI thread, but there was no Farming and Gardening Section there... It's mostly travel threads there.

    Anyways, let me know if I should still continue uploading the pics or not.

    The 'burn' was real crappy, but stuff like this happens all the time in farms. Often times, farmers are at the mercy of the weather.

    I think you clicked onto your picture and 'copy image' it and then pasted it to your thread.
    What you should have done is gone to your 'gallery' and clicked on the pic you want to show. It then appears bigger. You then click on that and it will get even bigger. You then 'copy image' and paste it to your thread.

    It's best to do this with having logged into TD twice on your computer. You can then leave your thread waiting whilst working on copying your pics before pasting them on the thread.

    That's the best I can do to help. Good luck.
