00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 3: And it was a tea farm, so I'm asking.

34
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 4: I was like, okay, well how much are you actually well, fine,

35
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 4: you're producing tea a gat it? Okay, so how much

36
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 4: you what's your revenue a year? And it just did

37
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,400
Speaker 4: not It didn't add up at all, like at all.

38
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 4: But for them, it's like a lot of times the

39
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 4: herritage land, which I totally respect, I get that right,

40
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 4: And if they don't have to sell, then there's no

41
00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 4: motivation there, you know what I mean. It's not like

42
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,120
Speaker 4: I think, it's just a different system here, right, so

43
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 4: you just have to adjust to that.

44
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 3: So there are deals one thousand percent.

45
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 4: You can absolutely find land that is comparable I would

46
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,519
Speaker 4: say some parts of California, and like I keep comparing

47
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 4: it to like Texas, right, Like you can get great land.

48
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 2: I I heard like ten thousand and acre on it

49
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 2: is that.

50
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's like a good yeah.

51
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 4: And then sometimes though, like there might be land that's

52
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 4: like ten thousand a plot, but it'll be because it's

53
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 4: like they really value the road, right, so like it'll

54
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 4: be like things that we don't really think about, but

55
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 4: like if it's close, they'll tell you how close it

56
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 4: is to the main road, and the closer it is

57
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,000
Speaker 4: to the main road, the higher the price will be.

58
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 3: So I've seen plots that.

59
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 4: Are like, say you could go anywhere from like three

60
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 4: hundred square meters, which is like I guess the size

61
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 4: you would like build a house, right, And they'll be

62
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 4: like it's ten thous dollars for that plot, which you're like, wait,

63
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,359
Speaker 4: I just could buy an aggre for They're like yeah,

64
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 4: but not here.

65
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 3: They're like, where's the road, yeah exactly exactly.

66
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,639
Speaker 1: One of the things that a lot of people, especially

67
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: away from ignorant to is how profitable farming can be. Right,

68
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: you said, we went to a tea farm, we got

69
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: to see your farm, and we brought down the onion thing.

70
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 1: Talk about that and why people should really be looking

71
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: at this as a business opportunity.

72
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,359
Speaker 4: Oh man, I mean like when you think about I

73
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 4: knew it had to be profitable because you see it

74
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 4: and you're like, these guys are doing it because it's

75
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 4: making money. But I couldn't really wrap my brain around it.

76
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 4: But my lawyer again who's been super helpful, he's a farmer,

77
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 4: and he was like, I make way more money farming.

78
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 4: It's like this is a short fire. So he started

79
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 4: to break it down for me. When I started to understand, Okay,

80
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 4: it's like this is something that especially here because I

81
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 4: think it, Yeah, really I think here, like this is

82
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,520
Speaker 4: so much agriculture like opportunities here, and I feel like

83
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 4: the younger people are not doing it as much that

84
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 4: they need it right and so like, for example, the

85
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 4: reason I decided to do onions is because a lot

86
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 4: of you know, they were getting like a year ago,

87
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 4: they were getting a lot of the onions from Tanzania,

88
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 4: and then recently they kind of banned the onions from Tanzania.

89
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 4: So it's like they need onion farmers here. I was like,

90
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 4: I can do that, right, So things like that. But

91
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 4: for example, like you know after your costs, right, if

92
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 4: you if you put in five acres of onions, right

93
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,279
Speaker 4: and with everything, so you got your with the exception

94
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,240
Speaker 4: of the borehole, which will make your money back within

95
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,040
Speaker 4: the year. But say like just all of your driplines

96
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 4: and all of that stuff, right for five acres, if

97
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,120
Speaker 4: you once you spend all that, which is like say

98
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,919
Speaker 4: eleven thousand dollars, you can make between let's say thirty

99
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 4: conservatively till like thirty five thousand dollars within let's say

100
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 4: a quarter. Right, so at minimum you have two harvests

101
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 4: a year for only five acres. That's a good you

102
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 4: can live on that, right, it's a good living. And

103
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 4: then say you add another five acres, like so it's

104
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:54,360
Speaker 4: it is actually extremely profitable.

105
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 3: They're looking for farmers. They want people to farm.

106
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 4: It's such a good opportunity, especially Kenya. Kenya has so

107
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 4: much flat land, you know, and it's great soil.

108
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 3: This is Africa.

109
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 4: It's like you throw a seed in the ground and

110
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 4: stuff just grows, you know what I mean. Like literally,

111
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 4: like it's amazing.

112
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 3: It takes.

113
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 4: It doesn't take as much as we've ruined our soil

114
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 4: in the States, you know, And it took me so

115
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 4: much to I mean even thinking about that, Like when

116
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 4: I think about my farm in California, it took me

117
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 4: a year before I could plant anything because the soil

118
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 4: was so depleted and it was just so ruined.

119
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 3: Like I had to go.

120
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 4: Through this whole process of like fixing the soil just

121
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 4: so I could grow stuff. Whereas here it's like, I

122
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 4: mean I could put anything in the ground. You're like, oh,

123
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 4: look it's a tree. You should see my backyard right now.

124
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 4: I a little in an apartment. My backyard is like

125
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 4: a jungle I have, but I ended up have been

126
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 4: here a year, right, So I've banana trees that are

127
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 4: like literally like twenty five feet tall, and like I

128
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 4: had to cover them to keep the monkeys from taking

129
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 4: all the fruit.

130
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 3: And I made It's amazing, you know. So it's just

131
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:49,760
Speaker 3: to show the difference.

132
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 5: Like, so I was gonna acually, what is the process

133
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 5: that actually said, because buying land is one thing, but

134
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 5: having an operational farms another thing.

135
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: You got to like have an irrigation system.

136
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 5: You gotta you know, I'm assuming you to plant the seas,

137
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 5: you gotta have people that's working it. You gotta have

138
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 5: pesticite control. Perhaps you gotta put the fence. Like I

139
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 5: think people don't understand how complex farming. They look at

140
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 5: farming is something that's like especially people from cities, right

141
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 5: as something that's like backwards, right or something that. But

142
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,159
Speaker 5: it's like it's so people don't associate technology with farming,

143
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,359
Speaker 5: But that's like the first form of tech.

144
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 3: Absolutely, it is farming.

145
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 4: Absolutely, And like I said, it's also real money, right,

146
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 4: Like it's real money.

147
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 3: And it's also like.

148
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 4: When you think about like food safety and just like

149
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 4: no matter what's happening in the world, if you're farming,

150
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 4: you've got this.

151
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 3: I mean honestly, like the only thing that's.

152
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 4: Gonna be could be the weather, right, But even that,

153
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 4: like there's there's safeties that you can you know, take

154
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 4: to get around that.

155
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 3: I mean, I think, like for me like buying all

156
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:46,239
Speaker 3: this stuff.

157
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,359
Speaker 4: One thing I have to say is that like especially

158
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 4: in the farming areas, people are people want to work.

159
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:53,480
Speaker 4: So it wasn't even hard, Like I got an agronomous

160
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 4: and these are people would like full on like degrees

161
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 4: in agronomy and like farming stuff that I was just

162
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 4: kind of like fumbling through it, like they really know

163
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,040
Speaker 4: what to do, you know, And so I ended up

164
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 4: I ended up finding someone. It was very again, it's

165
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 4: just random, like because Naivasha specifically is a farm area.

166
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 3: So like my car broke down and.

167
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 4: I was talking to the mechanic and then he was like, well,

168
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 4: this is a good This guy's a good agriculture like

169
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 4: he's a horticulturist actually, and I was like okay, cool.

170
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 4: And then I talked to him and he was like.

171
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 4: I was like, well, who can I have help me?

172
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 4: Like really do this and.

173
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 3: He's like why no guy?

174
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 4: And then I just like what snapped him? And he

175
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 4: was like I'll be there on Sunday. I was like great.

176
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 4: But it's also like you have to talk to people.

177
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:34,960
Speaker 4: You have to like some people are not gonna be

178
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 4: as good.

179
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: You know.

180
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 4: You just got to kind of get out there. You

181
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 4: can't be afraid to speak to people and kind of

182
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 4: figure it out. It is something you have to learn, right,

183
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 4: Like I'm still learning, but it's totally doable. One thing

184
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 4: I will say to you different here than anywhere else.

185
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 3: And people are so willing to help. They're so well,

186
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 3: I mean, they really are.

187
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 4: There's like no dumb questions because I asked tons of

188
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 4: questions and they're just so willing to help. And they

189
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 4: don't want you to mess up, you know what I mean.

190
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 4: They're like, no, no, no, that's terrible, don't do that, you know,

191
00:07:59,120 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 4: And you're.

192
00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 1: Like, oh, I was going there because as you were

193
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: talking and we spent a few days together, I'm thinking, like,

194
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: you're really knowledgeable in this. So there's been an education process,

195
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,480
Speaker 1: but even when we are with our drivers, they're knowledgeable

196
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: about everything. And how has the impact that the locals

197
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: had on the process of you saying all right, I've

198
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,760
Speaker 1: got this acreage. I want to add more. They gave

199
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: me some ideas. I'm going to add this. Wait, how

200
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: do I power this? This might be a new idea.

201
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: How much is the impact you had on you so much?

202
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 4: I mean, when you think about even moving to a

203
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 4: place where it's like the people, That's one of the

204
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 4: first things that I fell in love with here was

205
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 4: the people, and like these people are loving and care

206
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 4: and they care and it's just from the top to

207
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 4: the bottom, like you could be in the mall, bump someone,

208
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:39,839
Speaker 4: and just how that interaction goes, you know, to really

209
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 4: needing someoney, to be like, I need help.

210
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 3: I don't know how to do this. Help me, do

211
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 3: you know what I mean?

212
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 4: Like, it's just so it's so different culturally, I think

213
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 4: from that perspective, it's like welcoming, right, it's warm.

214
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 3: And I think too, like what I.

215
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 4: Really appreciate and what's made this so feasible is that

216
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 4: there is a process. Even if it takes a long time,

217
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 4: it's the same. They'll be like, no, this is what

218
00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 4: you have to do.

219
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 3: You've got to do this.

220
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,600
Speaker 4: And so whenever one keeps giving me this same answer,

221
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 4: you're like, okay, you know you're not being taken for

222
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 4: a ride. It's like, this is how you have to

223
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,920
Speaker 4: do it. And so then it becomes like, all right,

224
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:08,880
Speaker 4: well this is the way to do it. This is

225
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 4: how we do it, and they, like I said, what

226
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 4: you don't know? People will help and even you know,

227
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 4: I'll talk to random people. They're like did you plant this?

228
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 4: And are you putting this around it? And oh no, no, no, sister,

229
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,200
Speaker 4: you gotta put baking soda. And I was like, I

230
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 4: did hear that? They're like yeah, yah, yeah, I put

231
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 4: baking soda if you don't want those. But you know,

232
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 4: little things like that and you're just like, oh okay.

233
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 4: But they're always willing to help. So it makes something

234
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 4: that could feel really daunting and new. It makes it

235
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,000
Speaker 4: easier because it's not like it doesn't feel like crabs

236
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 4: in a barrow where everyone's just like, you know, fighting

237
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 4: to win.

238
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 3: It's like they're like, we're farm't we farm?

239
00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 4: It happens you you can't drive up a road and

240
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 4: can you not see some sort of someone selling some

241
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 4: fruit or vegetables or something, right, Like, there's so many

242
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 4: things people are just they're farmers and so it's great,

243
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,079
Speaker 4: Like you learn a lot just by regular conversations.

244
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 5: I feel like, so, what's the hardest part of farming? Right,

245
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 5: even from you learning in America to now having a

246
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,160
Speaker 5: farm and can't like what is the heart? Dealing with droughts,

247
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 5: even animals off your font? Like, what's the hardest part

248
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 5: that you had to figure out?

249
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 3: I think I keep saying that.

250
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 4: Like my farm in California was like my like training

251
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:14,840
Speaker 4: ground for this, right because it was smaller and I

252
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:17,080
Speaker 4: had major pests there too, So like it's just figuring

253
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 4: out like, Okay, what am I dealing with here? I

254
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 4: think water has been a challenge, Like the rain, No

255
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 4: rain is great, it rains so much here. I think

256
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 4: getting like the borehole says like that system is so.

257
00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:29,520
Speaker 2: What is that?

258
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,240
Speaker 4: So a borehole is like, well, right, so it's it's

259
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 4: basically they're digging into the ground and well, first you

260
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 4: have to get like a water analysis to see if

261
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 4: there actually is water there, right, So you'll pay someone

262
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 4: to come. Then you need a geologist to check and

263
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 4: make sure like see what the rock situation is. And

264
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 4: a lot of people will say, oh, you don't need that.

265
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 4: I did it, so I just was like I need

266
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 4: to know, like what's happening. It is an extra cost obviously,

267
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,000
Speaker 4: but you need to check like if there's water there,

268
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 4: and then you need to have someone come. And what

269
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 4: I learned was someone will tell you like they can

270
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,800
Speaker 4: do it for cheaper, but you don't really necessarily want

271
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 4: that because then your borehole is gonna break down. And

272
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 4: so essentially there they come, they check the water, and

273
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,559
Speaker 4: then they have to dig down between two hundred to

274
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 4: three hundred meters and then they put the casing in

275
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 4: there and then you've got this pump that's gonna bring

276
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:13,560
Speaker 4: the water up.

277
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 2: It's a well, it's like a well.

278
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a smaller well essentially.

279
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 2: And it pumps up. But what is the purpose of that?

280
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 2: To keep the crops?

281
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:22,040
Speaker 3: It wills to irrigate?

282
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 4: And also because even if you're gonna build a house there,

283
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,319
Speaker 4: gonna need water, right because a lot of the land

284
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 4: that you're gonna buy is rule right, so there's been

285
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 4: nothing there before, so you need to make sure because

286
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 4: a lot of land like there was. I was about

287
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 4: to sign papers on this other land and then I

288
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 4: and the guy was like, you should just check. And

289
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 4: that's when I was like, I wasn't gonna do the jelige,

290
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:40,640
Speaker 4: but the guys.

291
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 3: You should just do it. That's okay. I'm just gonna

292
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,080
Speaker 3: keep doing it for all the land. And I ended

293
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:43,439
Speaker 3: up doing it.

294
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 4: And he's like, there are these massive boulders up to

295
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 4: seven meters down, so my farming would have been a wash.

296
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,880
Speaker 2: How much water is under it? Like does it?

297
00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 3: It just depends?

298
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,559
Speaker 4: Right? So like for me, right now, that first borehole

299
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 4: that we saw that we just dug pulls up. It's

300
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 4: like ten point four cubit feet of water or whatever

301
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,440
Speaker 4: every day, right, So that's so then that's how we

302
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,280
Speaker 4: did the math. So then I know they said that

303
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 4: that amount of water, if you're continually getting that can

304
00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 4: cover up to maybe ten acres. Me wanted to be

305
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,320
Speaker 4: on the safe side. I decided to do five right,

306
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 4: and then I'll put another borehole, so I know that

307
00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 4: no matter what, we'll have water.

308
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 3: But that's also solar.

309
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 4: So then you have to figure out if you're gonna

310
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,439
Speaker 4: get a generator or if you're going to hook into

311
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,760
