NUSA SABANA

Timor with its SAVANNA/SABANA (wide grassland that covered by eucalyptus trees) has become potential supplier of cattle since the past. However, the number of cattle is deducted day by day because their habitats are corrupted by rapid growing of population and their developments.
Timor will be known no more as supplier of cattle/oxen unless we can build modern breeding system by doing in advance the bellows activities:
1. Forgetting/leaving ways of the traditional breeding.
2. Planting such Lamtoro Agung, Gala – Gala and King Grass (joined with Cassava, Papaya and Banana) for food of cattle
3. Digging deep well or Buying Diesel Water Pump for watering those plants, especially King Grass

Therefore, I should give my big thank to every sincere response to build modern farm in Timor or teaching the modern way of cattle breeding to the people.
Since the land is dry and has longer hot season (three moth rains with low intensity), technology is needed. Buying Diesel water pump to pull up water from the river, or building deep well. We also need some money to hire Tractor to cultivate the lands.
I have a great dream to lift my people up from poverty line by working as a modern farmer. I would like to give them example by cultivating land using tractor, planting plants that are available for cattle’s food and watering those plants at the dry season.

Timorese still live in poverty because they can not regard their job as one that can raise up their lives- they work just for food only. In addition, Most of Timorese has lack knowledge of what we call entrepreneur spirit, they are proud of their children who work as state officer though the job does not contribute too much..
