Tell me more. What is scary about cutting morning glory ? Watersnakes ? I was just watching a guy do that yesterday. It looks kind of swampy, and there's rubbish all around. (This is in town.) When I eat it I try to forget where it's come from.


The unknown, plus the sides of the lakes are steep and the water deep and full of pig shit, crabs etc.

Also a lot of parasites on the morning glory. Snails, and eggs of the snails can be deadly for mine goats, or they can get brainworms. Cambodian cows are very strong, so the chance that they get sick is small.

Reproductive season coincides with the wedding season, at the end of the wet season.
