Sangwoodgoon grows a variety of beans, and they make a habit of allowing some of the harvest to mature into seeds. Depending on the variety, farmer Sze Chung adds compost and Trichoderma solutions when cultivating the seeds, and sometimes basalt into the ground before sowing. These practices improve the crop’s nutrient absorption at the initial growth stage and increase resilience to pests and diseases.
