Chopping down a tree? - Experimental Forestry Cropping in the Central Andes - Welcome back to Buena Vista!

in dtube •  5 years ago  (edited)


Welcome back to this 777 series which has now come to its third geographical location, to Buena Vista Farm in the Northern reaches of the Tolima Department in Colombia, South America.

It always takes a moment to get back into the swing of things, get traction on new ground, but we have jumped back in with both feet, are organizing the home office and checking in on all the progress up at Buena Vista. After long months in the office, it feels and looks a little strange :)

In this video we can see a step in an experimental process of forestry cropping. We have tested our hypothesis that this hearty vine crop of oil bean could be grown on living tutors, or living trellis, in the form of Trichanthera gigantea, another highmountain native to this area. Here I drop the first of this experimental method to the ground, and take a look inside!

Coming back this time, after not so very long, I also notice some differences, some differences with DTube, a growing number of sub-communities and more tokens. I look forward to participating, and hopefully helping to grow the usage of this great Infrastructure known as STEEM.

A big greeting from vennezuela!

Oh, your video cut off! Right when you said "omega 3, 6, and 9, fatty acids... "
I didn't know vines would strangle trees like that! O: Poor tree. Let us know what you do with the oil beans, I'm curious, I've never heard of those.
Good to see you!
