Traitement du Benzoliv
Growing
For commercial use plant 10 x 10 cm apart or one million plants
per hectare.
Benzoliv can be planted ½ to 1 meter apart along the border
to form a living fence.
Benzoliv can be planted 3 meters apart and allowed to grow tall
and mature to pods and seeds.
These mature Benzoliv can provide seed for propagation or the production
of BenOil.
Harvesting:
If the objective is production of green fodder with a maximum of
protein then harvesting should be done every 30 – 40 days.
1 hectare of land planted with intensive Benzoliv 10 cm apart and
harvested 9 times per year can produce 650 tons of Benzoliv which
can meet the Vitamin A needs of 15,000 children!
Picking:
Scarves, masks, gloves and overcoats are worn to meet food hygiene
standards. The leaves are picked off the stems which can also be used
for animal fodder.
Washing:
The first wash is done in catchment water or well water but the
second wash is done in clean filtered water.
Drying:
Ensure the area is roden free and away from direct sunlight. This
process may take three days
Drying Equipment:
Staging can consist of trays that are removable for easy access
to the Benzoliv leaves once dry
