Surprised in the room

So in the garden, there were two people, consisting of a middle-aged man and a young man, hand in hand planting peanuts, on the other hand, without realizing when his younger brother planted peanuts, he forgot about the time, especially after he helped Pak Yuli plant peanuts. land. He also consciously asked some basic things about the science of farming.

Because he has no experience, when he has the opportunity like this to ask about farming knowledge, of course, Adi can't waste this opportunity. So then, with the excuse of helping Adi, he didn't forget to ask Mr. Yuli about some things he didn't know.

"Sir, if you plant this cassava tree until it is ready to harvest, how long will it take?" Adi asked while continuing to help Mr. Yuli

"It takes 6-8 months to harvest cassava normally" (cassava, french cassava, sweet potato, cassava, cassava, or cassava (Manihot esculenta) is an annual tropical and subtropical shrub of the Euphorbiaceae tribe. Its tubers are widely known as food. the main source of carbohydrates and the leaves as vegetables.

The processing method of cassava tubers can be eaten raw. The main content is starch with a little glucose so it tastes a little sweet. Under certain conditions, especially when oxidized, toxic glucoside will be formed which then forms cyanide acid (HCN). This cyanide will give a bitter taste. Sweet tubers produce at least 20 mg HCN per kilogram of fresh tubers and 50 times more than bitter tubers. The cooking process can effectively reduce the level of toxins. From this tuber starch is made tapioca flour (starch).

The cassava can be processed in various ways including. Cooked, cassava is widely used in a variety of dishes. Boiled to replace potatoes and complementary dishes. Cassava flour can be used to replace wheat flour, suitable for people with gluten allergies.

"Oh, it's been a long time, sir," said Adi, commenting

"Yes, it's been quite a while, sir," said Adi, commenting

"Yes, it took a long time, but the results were pretty good," said Mr. Yuli

"Oh, so how long does it take for corn, sir, to harvest?" Ask Adi again

"The corn is 3 months or about 90 days" replied Mr. Yuli

"So what's the result?" Ask Adi again

"Depends on the seeds and care," replied Mr. Yuli again

"And so is cassava, the point is that if you are farming you have to be patient, and you have to take good care of it if you want a good harvest, but sometimes the most important thing is the weather and the season," said Mr. Yuli, adding

"Oh, I see, it turns out that being a farmer is not easy, sir," said Adi commenting

Because from what he heard from Mr. Yuli, he could imagine that being a farmer is not an easy thing where, the land is the first thing that must be done, to determine what plants are suitable for cultivation, after that of course seeds and various other things. fertilizers and vitamins must be chosen to make a good harvest.

After that, daily maintenance must be carried out, not to mention attacks from pests that can come at any time, and the most unpredictable is the weather even though Indonesia only has two climates, namely summer and rainy season, on the sidelines of the rainy season. There is a transition season which is the most erratic season and many pests breed.

So then you can imagine how difficult it is to be a farmer, so when we see the food that is on our plate, which is already finished, it turns out that behind it all a long process is needed, and Adi can't help but understand it better when he becomes more aware of how the value of the food.

Not to mention the farming profession which is sometimes considered a marginalized job and also something that has no future, is a stigma that can be said to be commonplace in most of the general public, this, of course, cannot be separated from the shallow knowledge possessed by the general public about the farming profession.

If further explored, the farming profession is one of the most difficult professions, and on the other hand, the farming profession, which has been combined with advanced technology and also various modern things, will of course be something different.

And this has been proven by so many of them who are successful in the path of farmers, especially when organic crops have become mandatory for some segments of the upper-middle class, that alone has made the farming profession a promising profession, it's just that as is well known that even though farmers are promising, the risks they face are also great.

This includes various aspects, such as the availability of various fertilizers and vitamins as well as weather and pests.

After talking with Mr. Yuli, Adi finally finished his help, rested for a while, and then after he felt enough he said goodbye. Arriving at Adi's house, he immediately went to the bathroom to clean himself, not forgetting to greet his family who was relaxing.

After finishing the bath then Adi who was impatient rushed to his room, got to verify what he now wanted, and without delay time immediately with his intention he immediately appeared in the room that was gifted to him. "Welcome back Adi," said the angel to Adi

"Yes, thank you for the warm welcome angel," said Adi in reply

" Can I help you?" Ask Angel back to Adi

"Okay, that's what I want to ask you, here are the seeds of 3 plants, please arrange them in 50 M of existing land, the rest I haven't decided yet," said Adi to the angel

"Okay as you wish," said Angel replied

Then not long after something happened where, the seeds that had been carried floated in the air and were instantly divided into 3 parts, one side of the cassava tree the other side of corn, and then the last side was sweet potatoes, everything happened in front of Adi's eyes, like magic everything floated and takes place automatically.

Where the land for the seeds has been prepared, and without delay, the seeds are planted neatly, with good distances to make the growth of the plants fertile, then when all the seedlings are planted not long ago, the sky that looks clear is now starting to become cloudy and soon the rain poured down onto the area of ​​the seedlings that had been planted.

For the whole process to be said to be very miraculous, Adi who had already guessed in his heart now witnessing it for real had to admit that this was a good thing. "Yes, this looks very easy" Adi exclaimed admiring the scenery

"You will soon get used to it Adi, all the planting and harvesting processes will be done that way, but if you feel something needs to be changed, just think about it in your mind, then the space will work," said angel added.

"Good.....it must be something more interesting," said Adi happily.
