Weekly challenge #6
Your wealthy uncle gives you a sizeable piece of land (~20 hectares). Upon checking, you realized that it had the ff. features:
1) It is highly arable (good for agriculture)
2) It is rich in mineral
3) It is found in a prime area (good for commercial use)
4) It has a fresh, clean river running through it.
What will you do with the land?
Since it is a 20-hectare land and it is highly arable which is good for agriculture. I will use the 4 hectares to plant crops and other vegetation. Since it has clean river, I will use another 4 hectares to make a fishpond and raise fishes, specifically Tilapia. How will I do that? I will simply create a path for the river to go to the pond and make another path for the river so that it can benefit the other things that I will do to my 20-hectare land. I will use another 4 hectares of my land to raise poultry, goats, cows, and other animals that can be used for commercial purposes. I will only a hectare of land for mining. I will only have to limit mining activities on my land so that I can prevent soil erosion. If I won’t limit such activity, it can affect the other things that I did for my land especially the crops and the fishes. When that happens, crops and fishes will die and there will no food for us to give and sell to the market. I will also build a house so that we can live there whenever we need to ease our minds and when vacation starts. In order for the crops, fishes, pigs, cows and many more to progress and grow, I will hire farmers, expert farmers to be specific, so that we can produce products and sell it to the market. Farmers can build there own houses too so that they won’t have the need to go back to their houses every night. 2 hectares of land will be used for the farmers’ houses. The remaining 5 hectares will be used as a park and other recreational activities. I will create a park so that children and their families can enjoy and have fun. Of course, I will have to make a fence or a boundary to separate the farm and the park. And that is my plan; if ever my uncle gives me a 20-hectare land.
