My stone hut, far down stream, 10 years earlier damaged by a tree in a cyclone
The ruins of the hut today
Wild yams grow over it now
Aerial bulbs make good planting material
Wild cassava, escaped from early farms in the area
The stems are used for planting material
It produces large, edible tubers high in energy
Protected by law, scrub turkeys have lost their fear of humans.
It will only leave if chased away
25 cm lengths of cassava stems
Planted horizontally in mounds
Yam bulbs were also planted along the fence so that the vine could climb on it
Thunderstorm rain brings nitrogen due to lightning
In less than a week the cassava sprouts
It will require little attention after planting and will be harvested at the end of the year
