Back in the villages, the seeds are coated to make the famous seedballs. It’s very simple, you just have to mix clay powder with charcoal powder and a little water. Of course, the clay and charcoal must first be crushed to make a powder which is then sieved.
The result is a sticky paste into which a seed is inserted. Then you roll it between your hands to make a ball.
And then you let it dry in the sun.
It’s amazing, you can find seedballs coaters in every corner of the village!
