Cassava Conversion and Harvesting

Hello, I am Khuy Mao and I am writing an article about changing to increase income from traditional experience, changing from selling fresh cassava to selling dried cassava. Because there are many types of cassava, we also need to choose cassava varieties with high starch content to increase both price and yield. And harvesting can start from December to January, during the dry season in Cambodia. From experience, harvesting dried cassava yields higher income than harvesting fresh cassava. On the other hand, selling fresh cassava has a percentage cut of between 20 and 24%, which is about right. So I decided to harvest the dried type again to help boost the economy and income for my family. The above is my opinion. Thank you for reading this article. Please come back for more articles. Thank you.

My modern agriculture, my experience

My experience, written by me, Khuy Mao, on 25/6/2025 This article is based on my understanding of cassava crops. In order for cassava crops to produce high yields, we must know some things, such as the type of soil for cultivation, care, etc. Some important things are planting at the right time, from the middle of the fourth month, the rainy season arrives, choosing medicines for supplementation, etc., caring for weeds from the time of planting, etc. These are all important things for cassava or clean cassava. For my cultivation, not too much, enough for my family's care and some time left to earn extra income. At some stages, I also borrowed money from others to use, such as preparing the soil, cultivating labor, etc. While maintaining and cleaning the weeds is my own effort, in my free time I find a job to earn income. The above is my experience that I always study more with reality. This article is not a community article, it is my own experience.

Rural areas and roads in my village

Hello, today I will write an article about the roads in my village. This is a remote rural area, where travel is very difficult due to the roads. But sometimes the villagers also participate in building roads and repairing roads to help ease difficult areas. The owners of cassava farms also help build roads to make it easier to transport them by large trucks.

Part of the rural farmers for a better future

  Farmers should study how to farm clearly. Should study about other crops both in the fields and crops near the house. And should record work and expenses and income clearly. To study our annual income and expenses. Creating debt is also part of the income of farmers. Take debt to create work to earn income. Expenses must also be known from the average estimated income. To avoid debt, etc. Only create debt to pay for our progress. Knowing our needs and wants clearly is a good thing.
