  1. Hello Mr. Kie

    Where you live in Yasothon?

    I live in Roi Et and we have here nearly 6 Rai and i belive there is to make a living from this.

    The EM Farm in Saraburi have "Exemple Farms" for 1 and 7 Rai. But its all the times depend where you live.

    Hi Allgeier

    I live in Baan Sritan in Patiuw district. do you only work in a farm or also doing something else?

    Right! there are many example of model farm 1 rai or 7 rai or 15 rai. the model is more or less the same between each size just a matter of what you will be growing on your land...

    Thanks for sharing.

    It's about 60 km away where i live. Not to far. I do only this Farming. And this is normaly enough. Because 3 hour in the morning and 2 hour at the afternoon are not enough. (In my Position) And i not have Worker. So i thinking very mutch about the time i spending for each work.

    But its should be also a matter what i can sell on the Market by my self or my wife. The easiest profit is to sell the thinks by the farmer them self on the market.

    To sell duck egg, i dont need to have duck. I can buy them for 85 Bath.

    Or the Quailegg. To sell the egg of them. I not need to have Quail. In Roi Et there sell them for 85 Bath/100 egg.

    If you like you can send me your google coordinates where your Farm is.

    WishWasMan:

    If you have pig you not need to work at the hot hours of the day. And some small work its possible to do in the morning. For exemple: I cut every morning at 5 a clock the grass for the calw and the pig.

    The Morning is for working. Not for sleeping. The hot hours of the day to do some rest or stay on the computer.

    But i am a little surprise. We have here many advise how to farm but only on the paper or in the brain.

    I think here is nobody who live from the 5 or 10 Rai Property.

    Or have?

  2. Here is one Member who live from his 5-10 Rai Farm?

    In my position i would like to have every month about 20000 Bath and i will be happy.

    And this is now the question how.

    Every Worker or part from the Family will cut off some of my Profit or my income should rise.

    And now i asking who like to work at 40 degree and more in the sun and plant some vegetable? Or cut the grass for the cow? Or do some weeding.

  3. Today the Price in Phon Thong/ Roi Et.

    30% = 2.30 Bath

    20% = 1.90 Bath

    What do you mean by 30% and 20%? Is that moisture content? I would have thought the lower the moisture content, the higher the price.

    The content of starch insite the tubers.

    I have two places to sell my tubers here. One queck the starch and another one not queck. My Tubers are low on Starch, so i sell them to this shop who not queck the starch. The price was there 20 Satang better than on the Fabrik.

  4. Hi,

    i have about 15 rai of cassava now 13 month old. As the Price is not good now(1,70 Baht), i think about not take it out now, but wait until June/July next year.(Do the factories buy cassava in this month?)

    Will it still grow bigger or does it get "too old".?

    Everywhere i ask there told me about 11 month for the cassava. And you make 13 + 6 = 19 month. Maybe depense on the sort it's good or not.

    This 1.70 bath is for Starch or for Chips? The Chipmaker close the whole rainsaison where i live. And in our case, I would ask the factorie when there close.

    But if the Starchfactorie pay you only 1,70 Bath.Can i ask you what is the reason why its so less starch inside your tubers.

  5. Here is another try:

    How to put the cassava leaf inside a feed recept. Cuting and drying. I feed now to my sow every day and i cant see somethink bad.

    On the left side is washed cassva skin from the cassava fabrik. Also for drying and to put inside a feed recept.

    But to collect the leaf, cutting and drying take a lot of time. Not easy when i am alone.

  6. This is now my new planted cassava. I coverd with straw and skin from cassava. And also a dropping line.

    post-147638-0-93125900-1451043561_thumb.

    This is one a couple of month ago. Also on a dropping line but no waste water from the pig. At this time i can good see that the leaf not grow. Without of water from the pigstall i think i cant haverst cassava leaf.

    post-147638-0-46980300-1451043791_thumb.

    The tubers are not so bad. But very less starch.

    post-147638-0-67255200-1451043845_thumb.

    Here are some another cassava. There call this "5 minutes cassava". There use this to make some sweet thinks. Our neighbor take it out every couple of days and she pay me 10 bath/kg.

    I will plant this one again.

  7. I not count on Rai and tons. I count on kg and qm.

    This is now my second year with the cassava and where i live i sould think befor for what i plant the cassava. I planting for starch or for the chips?

    The starch in my cassava is very low because i put only the pig poo on it. This give me big stem and a lot of leaf. The weight from the tubers are ok. Average about 5 kg each. BUT, the starch is very low. So the starch company pay me only 1,7 or 1.8 bath/kg.

    If i bring the to the chipmaker. There pay me 1.9 Bath.

    In the starchfabrik there pay 2.65 Bath for Tubers with 30% starch.

    Now is the question what is easier. Planting for starch or planting for the weight?

    And which sort give me heavy tubers or which sort give me a lot of starch.

    Or maybe to plant the cassava to harvest the leaf? With the pig poo and water the leaf grow like hell. And the leaf have under 30 % Protein.

  8. Ash from burned banana plants is listed as being 50% potassium.

    But how many banana plants i must burn to get 1 to of ash?

    The cassava fabrik have some by-produkt to increase the quality of the soil. The price is between 10 and 150 Bath/to.

    Also the skin of the cassava. In my eyes, for today, the cheapest by-produkt to increase the soil. Kompost, mulch or only cover the soil to protect it from sun and rain.

  9. Some years ago i have been to a meeting where the future organic ricefarmers learned how to make organic fertiliser

    Mixing the ingeredians

    - Ricebran

    - Cow poo

    -Starterbakterien + Water

    k-IMG_2972.jpg

    Cover for 15 Days

    k-IMG_3552.jpg

    After 3 Days, it is to see that the Bakterial are working

    k-IMG_3549.jpg

    and here after the Rice who get this kind of fertiliser

    DSCN1097.jpg

    There havest between 800 - 1000 kg of Rice of one Rai.

    There Price for the fertiliser at this time was about 3000 Bath for 1000 kg. One Rai needed 300 kg + 300 kg of some animal poo.

    The Prinzip is all the time some. EM or the Bakterial from the Land Development Department or from the Move "Seeds of Permakulture".

    - 30 % animal poo

    - 30 % green (Waterhyazient, Gras)

    - the rest is somethink organic ( Waste from the cassava fabrik)

    + water and the starterbakterial

    And how mutch will this cost for 1000 kg? Not so mutch money, but time to collect ist.

    Allgeier

  10. Thank you somo for your answer.

    But we try to run our 6 Rai Farm to go the organic way. Now ist the question in witch organic matter we have this " K" .

    Rice hull ash have a about 0.6% potassium. (?). But I can get this for 40 Bath/to.

    Skin from cassave ist also cheap. But i dont know what is in the skin inside. I must search first.

    The cassave should be in the future part of our feed for livestock.

    Somebody tryed to irreged cassave? Here is an video and there talking about 50 to/rai.
