Agostinho Abudo, successful cashew farmer from Mucojo
This time we have a story about Agostinho Abudo who lives in Nacutuco, some 5 km from Mucojo Sede. This year he has harvested 10 bags or 900 kg of cashew nuts and has sold them all for a price of 30Mts/kg, and he is still harvesting from his farm. Furthermore he noted, “The cashew fruits were sweeter and the nuts were heavier and larger. It was like in those earlier times when there was no Oidium disease yet.” What had made these possible?
