Panas Terik - Heat Wave
It's "unseasonal", the heat at our farm lately. Noon day ambient can reach 38 celcius. Chickens stop eating and some drop dead from heat stroke.

Bukit Tinggi, Bentong, has it's own unique micro-climate, generally wet and humid throughout the year.

But for the past few years, we noticed changes to this micro climate.

We have really screwed up! As an individual we can help by buying local and by supporting sustainable ( not just organic ) agriculture. Industrialised agriculture, both traditional and organic, is a major contributor to global warming.
