Young people learn how to plant Moringa
On 26 th November 2019 nine people came to #OdesaIndonesia. They come from Garut, which is the mileage from Bandung about 1 up to 2 hours. Previous week they had visited us to discuss about community empowerment.
The visiting is the manifestation of it. The are likely serious to make change in their society. The instrument for it is that Moringa, that is being cultivating by Odesa Indonesia up to nowadays. Hence, they would like to learn how to crop this plant to Odesa Indonesia.
As a mentor, Huda, told many things about the plant such as the benefit, why Odesa Indonesia cultivating it, till practicing how to plant it well.
"To plant Moringa, many people tell that is easy but it is not as convenient as talking moreover if we plant a lot," said Huda.
The young people learn together with the old ones. They learn to each other because several of older men have experiences in planting trees.
The oldest one tell his intention to us that he intentionally learn this for the younger people, not for himself.
"I know that I am too old to learn this, so that this is not for me. I care about the younger people in my village," told he.
After the visiting, they do practice directly in their village.
This is so encouraging! Here in Northern Thailand we are also planting a lot of moringa. We find it easy and fast to simply cut a piece from a mature tree - about 3 feet long and 1 inch in diameter - and poke it in the ground. Planting seeds is great but maybe helpful to also propagate some cuttings? The water purifying qualities and high nutrient levels make this an INCREDIBLE tree to be planting!
