Cassava roots cut the traditional way

This video shows a manual process of separating cassava roots from their main stem after harvest. A farmer stands in the field holding a freshly uprooted cassava plant, its thick brown roots still covered in soil. With practiced precision, they use a sharp machete to cut through the stem and detach each root cleanly. The steady rhythm of each stroke reflects patience, control, and years of experience in traditional farming. Every cut keeps the roots intact, reducing damage and preserving quality for processing or sale. The demonstration captures the balance of strength and skill needed in manual harvesting, where each movement contributes to efficiency. This simple yet effective method emphasizes how traditional agricultural techniques remain valuable for maintaining crop quality and minimizing waste. The process showcases practical craftsmanship and respect for nature’s rhythm in food production. #shorts #farming #agriculture #cassava #harvest
