We are learning how to use a cool tool app called Voki. We created a character and then typed our text into the text box. Voki is a really cool app that we can now use in our blogs.

Whangara Farms 11.6.2018

Whangara Farms

We have been looking at farms and what they do, we also have been looking at the different seeds, grasses and plants that farms may use. We are also looking at what plants grow quicker, and what plants grow slower than the others..  Our guides were Renee and Andrew. Andrew was the manager of were we went, he isn't the manager of all of the land Whangara farms have there is another man that has some of the land. We saw how they trailed their grass and we learned new types of plants. We took some soil samples too. We are looking at testing them tomorrow.

We did it because we are looking at what agronomists do in their job and also what farmers can do to keep their farm healthy. We also did it because we are learning more about what farmers do in their farming lives they have.  We already know what one farm does now we know what two farms do. We are getting better at naming plants and looking and collecting soil samples.

Somethings that stood out to me are that some farms use solar powered machines and easy and quick gadgets to collect info about their farm, how it's doing and the things that are affecting the farm. Some farms are trying to prevent erosions, farms also like to still have lots trees around the landscape. A key ideas is that having dams and ponds in paddocks, don't really help the animals when there is a drought, and having no water. Tanks that fill troughs are much better than dams and ponds, and troughs hidrate the animals better

I liked learning about why the farm was re-planting trees on hillsides to prevent erosions, and preventing poop and dirt going into the river. I enjoyed finding out that lots of different grasses grow in different conditions and grow in different areas. I like how different farms have different ways on how they look after their farm.

I am still wondering do farms ever have to move animals to other paddocks that they don't own. I am also still wondering that if there is a storm and all the paddocks are really flooded, do you have to keep the animals and babies in the flooded paddocks??
