About 500 meters down the hill, several women and children were fetching water from a bamboo tube at a spring. In the midst of the dry season, when other villages in Timor Island begin to experience drought, the spring in Boti continues to flow with clear water."We never run out of water. As long as the forest is preserved, this spring will not dry up," said Usif.
Seeing the harvest in Boti reminds me of the cassava in the Gunung Mas food estate project, Central Kalimantan, which is thin and stunted. Exactly a year ago, we documented the failure of the project built on the former cleared forest . These vine-growing tubers are usually harvested every two years in the dry season, when the leaves start to dry.
One of the citizens quickly dug with a pointed piece of wood. However, finding the forest tuber was not easy. Apart from its thorny stem, the position of this tuber is deep in the ground. Although bose is a main dish, the Boti people do not solely consume corn. Their eating habits vary according to the season and what they harvest. They also cultivate and consume rice from field paddies, penmina , sain , sone , in addition to tubers and bananas, especially ripe and satisfying plantain.All of these food sources are planted with seeds that have been inherited for generations, so they have adapted to the local environment.
