sorry bro msg got deleted accidentally by me...haha

what i wanted to say was though there are allocations of up to RM 8B but hardly it will trickle down to farmers. the bulk of it goes to infra works

and there are many overlapping things that the PM announced. IE... Establish the Food and Agro Council for Export (FACE), FAMA is currently performing this role if not mistaken. why not just strengthen it. instead of creating another council with more civil servants

before we are all agreeable on the export market though lucrative, has local demand been sufficiently met ?? if not why head overseas when your local market craves for demand.

We should have a policy where for every 30% of export you sent out 70% must be locally marketed until local demand are met and then we can think of export. keep exporting out at the expenses of the Rakyat.

if there is oversupply in the market of course then you export.

Well 4X4 is fun. Durian is terrifically tasty.

How about fertilizer, machinery and other stuff? Solar powered device?

Bro if you got no time to tend to your farm. try to prevent your tree from flowering so the tree wont be so hurt. and save some of their energy

bro,

if you got someone to take care of the farm i can intro a fertiliser programme for your trees. it can help you to revive your trees and then help with flowers of the durian tree

Hi fellow farmers, what are the adjuvants that go well with foliar fertilizer, say Bayfolan?

Hello Chris,
I think your question is a bit subjective. I shall assume that you are trying to apply foliar fertilizer by spraying onto the plant leaves. I am not familiar with Bayfolan as I've not used it. Most of the foliar fertilizer has "small molecule" as the "wetting agent" built in. Also depending on what type of plant and method of spraying.

I think you can look for just any wetting agent if you feel that it helps.

I test out Halex Nutra-Phos N, powder form. Was told that wetting agent blended in. I mix it with my DIY EM (fish). I spray with knack pack, pressurized it to max before releasing, aiming at the underside on the leafs (pores are larger on the underside). On my Jackfruit sapling I can see them "penetrating" into the leafs.

Happy farming.
