Agricultural Activities Here In Our Town

The town of Manticao, Misamis Oriental have many different kinds of agricultural plants. Most of the people who lived here in our town are Farmers and they plant many different kinds of crops, vegetables and fruits. For Today's blog, I would like to share the agricultural activities today. In Barangay Poblacion, they conducted of buy and sell activities of vegetables and fruits. The price of the vegetables and fruits is less compare to the supermarket. Many people will loves to buy because of less prizes.

One of the fruits they sell is this delicious and sweet pineapples. Each of this will costs up to 65 per kilo if we buy to the supermarket but here it only costs 35 per kilo. According to the owner of this pineapple fruits, this is a kind of Hawaiian so it means that there are no pointed edges of its leaves compare in common pineapples. Aside of that, the fruits is very big and good for exportation. Pineapples is good for adding in the dish we cook just like Calderita. This is also good for juice making and sometimes, I did this by extracting of juices.

An Eggplant Vegetables

Next is this big eggplants, according to the owner of this vegetables, instead of using synthetic fertilizer, they only used organic fertilizer just like animal Manure. I really amazed of the output of using organic fertilizer. If we buy this in the supermarket, it costs up to 50 Pesos per kilo. But here it only costs 25 pesos per kilo. It is very worth to all residents because of less prizes.

There are lots of dishes can make out of this vegetables, some of this are stew, fish soup, fried eggplant and "Tortang talong" a kind of dish added with eggs and fried. This is also good for exportation activities and in fact, they decided to travel it to Cagayan De Oro city.

A Cow Ranch

There are also local farmers who raised cows just like this one. This is located in Barangay Pagawan, Manticao Misamis Oriental. The cow raisers wants to have milk shop on which they will sell cows milk. Almost 30 cows are here and the place is really perfect for cow raising. I am very amazed of the place I went particularly here in the cow ranch. It is abundantly with grass and the cows are having fun eating with grass. Because it is surrounded with fence, the owner did not tied all his cows and they let them walking around.

Cayenne

We called this one "Siling Espada" or "Cayene" for short. This is not really actually very spicy one but it is also good for adding it in the dishes. This is very in demand here in the supermarket and most buyers are eatery or restaurant owners. There are many kinds of chilli can be found in here. Cayenne costs will reach up to 25 Pesos per kilo only and it grows everywhere as long as the soil is very fertile. This is perfect for adding in soysauce and fish stew.

This sack of eggplant vegetables will be traveled to Cagayan De Oro City. This is one of good business and family source of income. The owner of this vegetables is very happy that all of his vegetables are sold out. It will have a long travel on this vegetables. Truly, Farmers have a great contributions to our societies so we can have food to eat 3x a day.

Bitter Gourd Vegetables

Bitter gourd is perfect for sauting method. Adding scrambled eggs is also perfect for this kind of vegetables. Well, there are some people who don't like this kind of vegetables because of its bitter taste. But I really like to eat bitter gourd or "Ampalaya" in Local term. It costs 35 Pesos Per kilo and there are many people wants buy. According to them they can save more money because of its less prizes.

This is very helpful especially for those people who can't afford to buy expensive prices of vegetables in the supermarket. I really amazed of the Agricultural activities and truly if we keep ourselves very productive, we can gain a good result and to become successful someday.

-Kudos to all Farmers.-
