Peter, I live in an area where there is an abundance of palm berries going to waste. Is the berry and seed the source of palm oil? Do you just crush them to extract the oil?

Hi Keith ; > So we just can't farm without Monsanto, right. Sensible question. Unfortunately the article does not propose reducing the use of herbicides but only increasing their use. Don't they understand that it is only a matter of time before another weed becomes resistant to the new cocktail and even worse than the first? Where does it end? The logical conclusion is the creation of wide variety of superweeds which will create havoc for all farmers. Don't they see this coming??? Apparently not. > How is your patch of forest getting along, Peter? Lots of things are doing really well, thanks. But it is a big project for me. I'm pretty tired. Anyone interested in my energy farm project can see progress pics at : www.cresard.com/pr01 The plan for this year is (budget permitting) : 1) Biogas from pig s**t. 2) Set up the ethanol still. 3) Get the wind turbine working. 4) 10K more teak seeds arriving Friday. 5) More of pigs, cattle, chickens, rabbits. 6) Plant about 10K oil palms this rainy season. 7) Dry season farming. 8) Breadfruit (for ethanol) and diesel tree (for diesel). > Best And Best to you Keith.
