I hadn't even thought about water. I guess we take a lot for granted here. I can appreciate all the hard work it must be then.

Goats! We got goats all over the place! Unfortunately, goats don't eat the roots so, within a short time, you have weeds again and you can't use them once the crops are growing or you will have none of the either.

As you can see, the land wants to revert back to jungle almost as soon as it is planted.
