Hi guys. So, this is Mr. Saude. I'm the production manager for this company.
Now we analyze some of the few things here. So, it wasn't so easy to start this project.
It was very tough. You see the branches there. These are the trees.
You see these trees. We chopped them down to fill the whole hectare.
Then we put the tractors. We hired the people to come and then work here on a daily basis.
It wasn't very easy. It was a tough job.
So, they chopped all this. You see that fell? You see that fell?
You see the trees that are down there? Yeah, they've chopped it down.
And then later on, we find the tractor to till the land, to prepare it completely.
After that, we have to board the seedlings. We go to Ezekro.
And then we hire people to come and then help us to plant these seedlings.
So, it wasn't so easy job. It was tough.
So, later on, we have to prepare the trips. You see these are the trips.
Because we use the trips, the trip system. So, it's quite expensive and it's costing a lot.
So, after the trip installation, then we start to put things together.
So, then you see these are the results of three to four weeks.
These are the results now. So, now we are on the final finish line.
That's what I can say.
How many plants do you have here?
Yeah, we've got 8,000 plants. We've got 8,000 plants of cabbage.
This is a conquest. So, now this is the finish line.
If you see this, it wasn't easy. It was a tough, tough, tough job.
So, now we are about to go to the finish line.
The 1st of January, it will be out.
And then we'll start to take it out to the market, if you see it like this.
So, now it's happy. You can come with the camera and see.
It's happy now. It's happy, you can see.
It's full of happiness. Yeah, it's enjoying.
So, even though it wasn't so nice, you can see.
It wasn't so nice to be into this.
So, it was a very painful journey.
Painful journey. Not a nice journey.
So, that's what I can say.
Today we're going to have to spray.
We're going to apply the vegetative and the warlock and the aqua.
So, then we have to combine those chemicals together to disturb the...
What do you call it?
The worms and other stuff that disturb the cabbage.
So, because cabbage likes...
There are many various insects that disturb cabbage.
So, you see the whole field, it has to be now, today,
applied those chemicals.
So, then we have to disturb that.
So, if you don't do that, those worms, insects,
you can destroy the whole system.
So, now you see the whole entire thing.
It wasn't so easy.
It wasn't so easy. It was a hard, hard, hard work.
But, I'm sure two months down the line from now,
we will have to be taking this product to the market.
That's what I can say.
So, you can even see the other field there.
We still have to open that side.
We still have to go the entire field.
You see, we still have...
We also have another cabbage down there.
If you can see there.
Push the camera that side.
So, this is our work.
This is our work.
Our daily basis, we have to supply people with the food.
Yeah, we're committed to supply people with the food
and the proper food.
That is well, well prepared.
We don't take a chance.
So, we work very hard to ensure that the product is optimal.
Even though it goes to the market, you don't have to complain.
It will be clean, perfect, up to standard and stylish.
You see the whole field.
You're going to consume it.
Very soon, it will be in your market.
Okay, that's it.
I also want to show you another field of cabbage that we have got now.
Because now, we're going to have to...
We've got another cabbage down there.
Up there, I'm sorry.
It's one month left.
So then, it will be out.
So, I'm going to show you.
How is it? How is it looking?
You can also put the camera on the field there to show them.
These guys will see how was the entire system before we came here.
Before it has to go out.
So, I want to show you.
Nah, it can't be there.
It's one month old.
One month left.
So, it will be out to the market.
You're going to consume it.
You will enjoy it.
It's very nice.
How many has to have you?
Yeah, we've got 6,000 plus.
6,000 plus.
So, the whole system, it's conquest.
It's still the same conquest.
Yeah, it's enjoying.
So, this is what we do.
Like I've said, our main task is to wake up and then come and then plant.
So, then you can eat.
Without us, you can't eat.
So, that's our main task.
You see the whole system.
This is a conquest.
So, this one is only one month left.
The 1st of December, it will be out.
If you check it here.
Even this one today, we have to apply the nutrients here.
So, we have to boost it up.
To be the better.
Thanks very much, guys.
Thank you.
