10% to @steemfarm-market

Hello steemians and members of this great community. I called this community great because its a community that supports life for without food humans will die of hunger.
Farming has been a thing of the past and many youths today are shy about it but should we be shy of where we get food from??
From what that support living on earth??
Farming is something that we should be proud off and show off with it. Do you really know as AFRICAN that farming is our inheritance?
Farming our inheritance

So today i went to the farm to process palmnut, its a long process before its gets to palm oil that's commonly seen in the market.
First the "palm cone" containing the fruits is harvested and kept for days in an open air.
In some areas, it is watered to shorten the time it takes for the fruits to loose up from its cone but in this case, it was kept in an open space in the farm and prune from its stems to allow it loose naturally.

picking up nuts thats separating them from the cone

So on this day, we went to the farm to separate the nuts from its cone. This process is carefully carried out as the cones are naturally made up of thorns. A wound from this thorn is usually very painful thus it requires a lot of care. This method can not be used in very large scale production of palm oil as it is very slow.

After this procedure, the next process is to sieve the palm fruits to separate them from the dead remains from their coins

sieve the palm nuts from its remains

This normally takes hours too but its not as difficult as the picking process.
After this procedure is completed, it is then packaged in bags and carried to the grinding mill.

Follow up as i explain the milling process of palm nuts to get palm oil in my next episode.
Thanks
