Greetings everyone, this is my Second time to visit here in Parola Farm Valley located in Zone 23, Barangay Poblacion Manticao, Misamis Oriental. This areas contains lots of wonderful and relaxing places just like big trees, Mountains, River and a Plain Areas. My Main topic for tonight's blog is all about some of the crops and producing copra out of coconuts. This valley contains lots of valuable plants and some structures used for drying coconuts to make it copra. But before we proceed to the topic, first allow me to share some of the areas here in Parola Farm Valley.

This also contains a beautiful resort but unfortunately I did not take any photos of the resort because the owner don't want to take any pictures everytime when the resort is not in operation. This Sign made of woods pointed to the place were the resort built. This can make people easily found the place because of the sign pointing to the place. In the planks, was a white color paint written in Greetings message just Like "Welcome".

Inside of the are some newly planted fruit trees. Some of the fruit trees can be seen and found here are Guavas, Papayas, Manggo trees, Cacao trees and even Sampaloc and Lanzones trees. Crops like Lutya and Kuryoso is also planted here at the Parola Farm.

Bananas is also one of the primary source of income here at the farm, approximately, there are 400 Banana plants located in the place according to the land owner. Some of it are not yet produced or bears fruits. Planting lots of bananas is one of the great investment in Life. There are lots of farmers who already successful about selling and planting banana fruits.

This farm was also divided into two parts because of this Rocky road located at the of in Parola Farm valley. Even if the road is not yet concreted, still there are lots of people passing by.

A little bit farther was this vegetable garden near at the River. There are lots of vegetables planted near at the bamboo plants. The soil was very fertile because of the dry leaves of bamboos. Lots of big trees just like mahogany and germilina trees also grows in the place. It keeps the place cool and relaxing because of the shady places brought by wide branches and lots of leaves. Some of the vegetables grows in the Garden are Alugbati leaves, Malunggay leaves, Camote Tops and chilli pepper. This garden is near at the Garden and it will be very easy to fetch lots of water everytime when watering the plants.

This house structure was completely abandoned by the tenants, it is made of light materials just like Bamboo pieces, lumbers and plainsheet. Some of the walls and floors of the structure is made of bamboo pieces and it built near at the Bamboo trees and Barangay Road. Many years has past when this house was completely abandoned by the owner.

Parola Farm valley is near at Manticao river. This body of water helps to all agriculture plants in here. They also dug deep hole and installing some polythelane tubes and motors so that it can suck lots of water for watering the plants in the field. There are lots of trees grows at the cliff, it helps the soil of not getting eroded everytime when there is a flood occur.

Visiting Coprahan areas at The Farm:

This is the structure were the coconut will piled and put to make it dry and easy to removed the coconut meat to its shells. The structure is made of light materials just like bamboo pieces, Round lumbers, Plainsheets. The coconuts they harvested in this Farm will be put in here and it undergoes lots of methods.

The harvested coconut will put and gathered in one place so that it will be very easy to get and pelled the husks on it. Husking methods is one of the hardest job in copra making, it takes a lot of time before they finish husking. Approximately there are thousands of coconuts that needs to be husking and it takes a week of doing the Job.

Even if this job is hard and tiring enough, still those workers are having a lot of fun time and feel this work very easy for them. I really amazed of them because of their hard works and dedications to their Families. They keep husking the pile of coconuts everyday and they only take a rest very lunch time.

Some of the copra was already put in an empty sack and piled in here. They covered with this plainsheets and later they will hauling this sacks of copra in the truck to be transferred going to the City and sell.

Drying coconuts using burned husks needs to do for 2 days so that the coconut meat will become very easily removed to the shells. I tried to get some coconut and this kind is not yet ready for removing those meat. It needs to dried up a day, I have a little bit ideas about copra producing because this is what I did many years has past.

I was having a lot of fun and enjoyable time exploring the place. Thank you for visiting and reading my post, have a nice day everyone.
