Nduli-6th CVP Visit - Sept 1-2009

Ag Inst – Nduli
6th CVP Visit
(Partner – Christ the King, New Brighton, MN)
Sept 1st, 2009
Pastor: Layton Muyinga.

Notes about this crop:
Number of people attended; 15, there were 3 people who attended the meeting for the first time and we had all people from each preaching points except one preaching point and they informed the pastor about their absence.

The corn crop at Nduli is one of the best in the CVP Program besides having weather problems in this year.
The reasons for this include:
They followed the Ag Institute’s recommendation for everything in a timely manner. The corn was tall and the ears were well filled out.
They harvested corn and were already shelled, yield obtained is 67.5 tins equivalent to 9.6 bags of shelled corn from half an acre.

One of the people who attended the seminar explained to audience that, he cultivated Five acres and harvested only six bags of shelled corn.

Amount of beans harvested was 9 tins and 7 liters; they would like to have a different beans variety specifically a drought resistance variety.

Records:
Demonstration plot;
Ø First 10 meters- harvested amount 8.5 Kg or liters of shelled corn
Ø Second 10 meters –harvested amount 6.0 Kg or liters of shelled corn
Ø Third 10 meters – harvested amount 5.0 Kg or liters of shelled corn
Average in 10 meters in a row is 6.5 Kg or 6.5 liters of shelled corn.

Neighbor’s records:
They didn’t record; we recommended them to record next season.
