We will see how the current donation campaign will turn out. It looks like there is not gonna be a bigger amount of BTC be possible to collect here that we will even have difficulties to reach the goal from our current donation campaign. But in that case I would donate the rest that we can prepare at least what we have planned for now (OP).

Have you able to convert out those BTC's to local currency/fiat before the market crashed or still in BTC form? If yes, then that would really be hard to reach out such target.

According to some search it would take up to 120 days or simply in 4 months time https://steemit.com/agriculture/@pakganern/the-process-of-rice-production-in-philippines

Yes, stomachgrowls is right here, it takes around 120 days to be ready for harvest. He set up a farm in January and it was harvested a few days ago, I'll upload pictures shortly. In total, it took around 140 days to be harvested. But I'll post pictures shortly here.

Have you able to convert out those BTC's to local currency/fiat before the market crashed or still in BTC form? If yes, then that would really be hard to reach out such target. Luckily, he conversted all BTC to cash at a rate of approximately 52k USD. I'll adjust our funding goal and display it in USD instead, maybe it's better when prices are so volatile.

It would be enough to remove old plants, buy seedlings and plant it where we will remove old plants:

He will distribute all harvested rice to his town and especially those who have helped him harvesting it. But I have asked him to sell a part, if some rice is left because such funds could help us to reach our new funding goal.
Also are you guys going to setup a website or something along those lines for this initial venture?
He and me don't have any coding skills and hiring a programmer to set up a website would be a loss of funds because it's not really necessary. I'll keep using Bitcointalk because it has worked very well for us so far here. I will ask him tomorrow, how many funds are collected so far and how much USD is missing to reach our goal. I don't know the exact numbers, but it should be aroud 150 - 200$, which is still to collect.

I have a bigger update today: First (and very important): We are using the App Bitcoin.ph where our donations are sent to. Today, it seems like he can't access his address anymore because Bitcoin.ph made an update. No funds were lost. I don't know if there's any transition period but please @everyone use our new address: Donation address: 3Cii92orneregUnho24tRerWFEGqVywW2bI've also updated the OP. Second: The farm which we had set up in January this year, was harvested now and we have some pictures to share: He has also sent a short video: https://i.imgur.com/RA10Kf0.mp4It was a big success and we want to thank everyone who sent donations so far.
For our current campaign we are re-arranging our goals and he has asked me to change the campaign a little bit. Now, we will not remove the old plants from the new farm but we plan to use again the farm where the rice was harvested recently. Since we won't have to remove so many old plants, it will be cheaper and easier to set it up again. In addition, this part of the farm is more than 2 times bigger than the one mentioned in my OP. We have already collected half of the money to do this from our current campaign and still need 200$ to finally do this. We are are planning to begin shorty and if we are short of funds, I'll sent him the remaining BTC. Our target is mid-june because he wants to hurry up a bit when days are getting more rainy.

I sent the $200 needed to achieve the goal of your campaign. Good luck to the person, hoping he will be able to start in time

Much appreciated, that's very generous. I've already PMed him and he will arrange to get the machines for preparing the farm and buy some rice seedlings since we have collected enough funds now. I'll make updates here documenting our progress.

We will start using machines to prepare our farm very soon by removing old plants. Currently, our farm is still how it was after harvesting: It should take 4 or 5 days to prepare it again. After preparing the farm, we will start to plant rice.

Hello and sorry for such a long time and no update. Unfortunately, shortly after my last update, the water supply was shut down and government tried to repair it. But we needed water to start our work, so we waited until it's fixed. It took a long time to be fixed but fixing will be finished in a few days. Additionally, a big Corona wave was hitting their town and people were affected. So we decided to buy some food from our funds: We will start preparing the farm when we have water again but because we have bought some food, we need some more money (around 100$). To get enough funds again. Donations please to: 3Cii92orneregUnho24tRerWFEGqVywW2b I have already donated a little bit and 100$ aren't much, so we should get enough funding to compensate our food purchases.

Before starting to prepare our farm, we have bought some more food: Preparing our farm should start in a few days and funds are enough to remove old plants. After it, we need to reconsider how much funds are left and how to proceed. But buying and planting rice seedlings shouldn't require much money.

Our farm is now supplied by water again and our farmer has prepared our farm meanwhile by removing old plants: I've also received a video from him but it's recorded sideways and I had no chance to rotate it, so if you want to view it, I have uploaded it on Imgur: https://i.imgur.com/VZmJWDN.mp4As far as I know, the farm needs to prepared a second time to remove old plants again and after it, we can start planting rice seedlings. Unfortunately, our fund is still lacking 100$. If nobody donates, I'm allocating the missing fund during the next days but hopefully, we can collect it from donations. If you want to donate even a small amount, you can send some BTC here: 3Cii92orneregUnho24tRerWFEGqVywW2b

I am glad to see how the farm is progressing, and I hope that the harvest will be good because, given the fact that food prices are constantly rising, anyone who produces something of their own will survive easier. My small donation has been sent, I hope someone else will share a few more satoshi for a good cause

My small donation has been sent, I hope someone else will share a few more satoshi for a good cause Many thanks for your donation! I've also donated 75$ and now, we should be ready to start. Today, all remaining plants have been removed : Planting rice seedlings should be the next step now and we have enough funds to do it.

After preparing the farm (removing old plants), rice has been seeded and we are waiting for it to grow. Here a few pictures:

Unfortunately, no new pictures could be made so far because I just got an update recently, that our friend had a broken phone, so he could not send any pictures. He PMed me a few days ago again and made a short update: Our previous rice was harvested recently but it wasn't much because of storms and bad conditions. He sent me a picture about what was harvested:
And new rice was already planted also a few days ago (but not from our donations as far as I know): So, I'm very happy for all your donations and despite a lack of updates, it brought some sacks of rice to harvest.
