The cooperative planted 420 hectares of agricultural land in Qamisho, of which 180 hectares was in the village of Himo that belongs to Qamishlo. 70 hectares of land were planted with lentils and 180 hectares with wheat.
As harvest season began, the women who are members of the cooperative went to the farms in Qamishlo to start the harvest and then head to Tirbespiye [Tirbespî / Al-Qahtaniyah] for more crops.
The produce was stored after the harvest was finished, to be packaged and shipped later.
