#Durianium—Turning goat manure into gold for our orchard

After purchasing sacks of goat manure, today was the day to put it to good use. Fresh manure cannot be applied directly to durian trees—it would burn them. Instead, it must go through a fermentation process first.

Papa began by emptying the manure onto a plastic sheet laid over the ground. There was a significant amount to handle, and with each sack weighing around 50 kg, we had to be extra careful while lifting, opening, and pouring the contents to avoid injury.

Once a sufficient amount of manure was spread, it was time to add the fermentation starter—EM4, an agricultural product that helps break down organic matter and enhance soil fertility. The process involved mixing a portion of EM4 into a bucket of water, ensuring it blended evenly before pouring it over the manure. This was then spread out evenly before repeating the same steps with the next batch.

The fermentation process now begins. Over the next few weeks, the manure will transform into a rich, organic fertilizer ready to nourish our durian trees. Depending on environmental conditions, this can take anywhere from one week to two months, but in our case, it should be ready in about 2–3 weeks.

Without hard work like this, a profitable durian harvest would be just a dream. But seeing our trees grow, knowing we are contributing to a sustainable ecosystem, and working in the fresh air—it’s all deeply rewarding.

This is the essence of a farmer’s life: patience, persistence, and the promise of a future harvest.

#Durianium—From sweat to sweet harvest: The Journey of young farmers

Today at our durian orchard, the work was endless—just another day in the life of young, aspiring farmers. After purchasing sacks of manure and 1.8 tons of vermicompost, it was time to distribute them across the land.

Papa took on the task of transporting the heavy sacks of vermicompost using a wheelbarrow. Each sack weighed around 50 kg, making it a challenge to lift manually. Every movement had to be careful and precise to prevent injury. The process took time, patience, and resilience.

As we worked, we encountered black scorpions in the soil near the fertilizer. Far from being a threat, their presence reassured us that our orchard was part of a healthy ecosystem, still rich with natural biodiversity.

While distributing the vermicompost, Papa also gathered stones from the soil. Removing them would help loosen the ground, making it more fertile for our durian trees and other plants. Our son, Yarik, eagerly joined in, helping transport and distribute the fertilizer.

We set aside one sack of vermicompost to bring home, where it would nourish the grapevine growing in front of our house.

To reward Yarik for his hard work, Papa turned the wheelbarrow into a fun ride, pushing him back and forth between the orchard and the parking area. Moments like these make the hard work worthwhile, turning exhaustion into shared joy.

From morning until late afternoon, we labored under the sun. Farming as beginners is no easy feat—it demands sweat, sacrifice, and relentless effort. But this is what it takes to build something from the ground up.

We remain hopeful that one day, all this hard work will bear fruit—literally. A bountiful durian harvest will not only bring prosperity but also immense joy to our family. And we believe that day is coming soon!

#Durianium—Clearing the path to a fruitful harvest

At grandma’s orchard, where Yarik, Naya, and Eva often play, the grass and weeds had grown wild, threatening the neatness of the garden. Today, it was time to restore order. Papa took on the task of cutting and clearing the overgrown weeds using a newly purchased brush cutter.

Before starting, the brush cutter needed to be assembled and filled with fuel. We chose Pertamax gasoline, a trusted product from the state-owned energy company, Pertamina. Safety came first—Papa made sure to wear a face shield to protect himself from flying debris during the cutting process.

With everything ready, Papa began trimming and cleaning the orchard. The brush cutter roared to life, and in no time, the weeds and grass that once blanketed the orchard were gone, leaving a clean, organized space. The freshly cleared garden now makes it easier to care for the durian and other fruit trees, bringing us one step closer to a bountiful harvest.

Hard work truly is its own reward, and any fruit that comes from it will just be the bonus. Let’s keep working towards that fruitful future!
