Why not wait to go up a little bit of money?, In the binge friend, took out a loan! At what price they bought it?, Even in ENABAS sold it to 1150 pesos!, "And how would you rate the cycle?, Hard, hard by the rain! First came the drought, planted on 16 December, some born in December by the wet ground and another in January. We care well, I hilling hoe, so spraying against pests and foliar fertilizer I applied. The harvest was like I did two plantings, planting and replanting, because one was born first and then the other, so I made two cuts. I had to lay it on wire by rain threatening, the collection has been tough, you saw him! At that price it was good!, To recover from past losses, to level because the price is good! I like black bean plant but you see, I decided on this, if he had lost black seeded, the price is dropped, to half a quintal!

Alfredo is happy, his efforts materialized in the harvest has allowed it to repay the loan she received, her primary concern. The labor cost per acre was three in 1600 Cordobas. After deducting these costs will remain in the bag córdobas C $ 2.818 per acre, ie free córdobas 14.090 in the five blocks. You say, was it right, did not lose!, Paid off the loan, recover the investment in labor and still has his little notes in the bag! Yes, indeed. We were 156 cordobas gain for each day of work invested in the cultivation of the five blocks of beans. Others have less, almost nothing, just for the food.

El gallo pinto, whose invention is attributed to the African descendants in the Caribbean Coast in banana and lumber camps by the lack of variety of foods, called that way because the red beans and white rice , giving the appearance of a cock with red feathers, lording it became popular in the Pacific during the twentieth century, mainly in cities, such as practical nutritional solution for the tables of workers, artisans and poor households. It is the dish that gives us four main components of the diet: beans provides protein, essential for life by their content of amino acids; Rice provides carbohydrates and fats oil. In addition, scrambled rice and beans provide vitamins and minerals.
While the poor produce proteins in extreme conditions for their survival without being subject to public policies that contribute to improving their conditions of production, large rice producers, who put the carbohydrate directly on the table , the government subsidizes the cost of the energy required for irrigation of large white grain sown. Consider this when buying and, indeed, at the time to savor your gallo pinto!
