Mesra Farm - One Year Anniversary!!!!!!

Below: Tapak menantu aku - harvesting palm oil; 4 years old palm trees - very bountiful harvest indeed

Its very heartening to say the least when palm trees planted about a year ago look like the one above and below. Hopefully by the end of this year there will be quite ready to show some yield.

While Sarawak recently experienced the worst flood in 50 years - my folks in Dijih were busy harvesting their sago palm in Ng Luau; each lumpong of 3 feet each fetching RM6.50. One family got RM17,000+ another RM10,000.00. When the landas season was over they went home to Meruan and resume harvesting their oil palm which were not harvested for about 2 months because of the poor road conditions. One 10-acre plot yields as much as 18 tonnes which translate into RM7,350.00.
