Once upon a time there lived a good and generous farmer. When the farmer went to his field, he found a sparrow with a broken leg. The farmer felt sorry. He took the bird to his humble home. The farmer immediately treated the bird's leg. After a few days of care, the sparrow he released back into the wild.
A few days later, while the farmer was irrigating the fields and plucking the weeds, he was approached by a small sparrow he had helped. The bird carried three watermelon seeds on its beak. He gave it to the farmer. After that, the bird went away. The farmer was very grateful to the birds.
The next day, the farmer planted the watermelon seeds near his house. After he took care of the seedlings of the watermelon tree, the watermelon tree grew. The longer the tree gets bigger. Finally the watermelon tree bears fruit. The farmer was very happy. He took the three watermelons.
As he was splitting the first watermelon, there came out some sparkling gold and diamonds. The farmer was very surprised to mix happily, then he split the second watermelon. It turns out that it is building materials. The farmer was very happy, and he split the last watermelon. It turned out that the workers were ready to build a magnificent palace for him to live in.
Finally, because of the farmer's kindness and sincerity, he is now a very wealthy man. He always shares his wealth with the needy and always helps the needy.
After reading carefully, now we see the mandate or whatever message is in the fairy tale.
That day the farmer went to the market to find work.
When he came out of the house, he saw an egg lying on the snowy ground. Carefully pick up the egg and bring it into the house.
The farmer covered the egg with a shabby cloth and placed it in cardboard to keep it warm. After that he went to the market to work.
The farmer kept the egg warm every day until it hatched. It turns out that the egg was a seagull egg.
Maybe the mother dropped it when she was about to move to a warmer place. The farmer took care of the little seagull lovingly. He always divided every meal he obtained from working in the market.
When you have to leave the seagull alone, the farmer will put it in a cardboard box and light the fireplace to keep the seagull warm.
As the days passed, the little seagull grew bigger and bigger. The farmer realized, this seagull will not always stay with him. With tears in his eyes, the farmer let go of the seagull to go south, to a warm place.
One day, the farmer lay sick from the cold. He had no money to buy medicine, firewood and food. Tok tok, a sound came from the door of the farmer's house. The seagulls are back. In the beak there are seeds of plants.
The farmer was surprised the seagull still remembered him. He let the seagull in and gave him a drink. Looking at the seed carried by the seagull, the farmer wondered.
What seed is this? Can I plant it in the middle of this winter? Ask in the heart.
The next day, a miracle happened.
Seeds planted by seagulls grow into a complete tree with its fruit in just a day. The farmer was very surprised to see it. Hungry, the farmer ate the fruit of the tree. Miraculously, his body became strong and he did not feel any pain.
Because of his miracle, the farmer named the tree the Tree of Gods, because the fruit can make the farmer pack healthy again.
The farmer took good care of the tree. Despite winter, the tree continues to bear fruit and does not become dry. The farmer sold the fruit and made a lot of money. Now the farmer is no longer cold and hungry. Nevertheless, the farmer remained generous, he remembered that what he received now was the fruit of his sincerity in helping his fellow living beings.
A farmer is someone whose profession is to grow crops, both on private land and have full rights in carrying out cultivation. Successful farmers are helpful to everyone. This is because, farmers provide a means of life for the community in the form of food that certainly makes us able to survive.
Being a successful farmer is not easy. You can learn from the story of successful farmers from scratch. The farmer who successfully cultivated this plant was named Rommy Mamesah.
These farmers live in Kawangkoan, Tompaso, Langowan, Minahasa, North Sulawesi. Rommy made a profit by cultivating chili and tomatoes.
From the results of farming chili and tomatoes, dozens of families have benefited to reach Rp 200 million in one growing season. Land area of about a quarter of a hectare in Langowan Barat can make money of Rp 150 million in just 4 months When the chili is harvested first, the selling price reaches Rp 70 thousand/kg. At this first harvest, Rommy picked about 50 kg of chili. Rommy managed to make a profit of Rp 3.5 million.
Many collectors who came to buy chili, one of them is a man from Manado. This man came to buy Rommy's chili.
Both agreed with the price of Rp 150 million. A week later the price of chili penetrated the highest price of Rp 90 thousand/kg. The selling price of this chili is very high, even exceeding the selling price of cloves at that time.
The story of another successful farmer from scratch named Abdul Qohar. This farmer lives in Candisari Village, Sambeng Subdistrict, Lamongan.
Abdul reap many advantages with papaya calina gardening. Agricultural land in the southern tip of Lamongan is notoriously dry and has been hereditary only planted with tobacco, rice, and corn. However, this did not decrease Abdul's intentions. With perseverance and persistence, Abdul managed to form the Godong Ijo Sejahtera Farmers Group with 112 members spread across 8 villages in the Sambeng Subdistrict area.
With a total of 15 hectares of papaya calina orchards, Lamongan is the third largest producer in East Java. Not only to Lamongan, papaya calina fruit from Sambeng is also marketed to Tuban, Gresik, and Jakarta.
In an area of 1 hectare, can be planted up to 1,520 stalks of papaya calina. On each hectare, farmers can get a turnover of Rp 18 million/month. This is also calculated by the possibility of failure factors.
The harvest time of papaya calina itself is when it is 6 months and 20 days old. Calina papaya will continue to bear fruit until the age of 3 years later.
