Cultiu de la xufa: La sembra

Entre el final de març i el mes de maig es fa la sembra de la xufa. Abans, se sembrava en muntonets a fi que les mates isqueren agrupades, ja que després calia nugar-les entre elles per a arrancar-les. Amb un llegonet es feia un clotet en el cavalló, s’hi depositava un grapat de xufes i es tapava. La sembra es feia sobre el camp allisat, on després es feien els solcs.

Quan començaren a utilitzar-se les màquines de collir d’accionament manual i les plantes seques es cremaven, es va passar a sembrar directament en cavallons.

Actualment s’empren sembradores mecàniques accionades per un motocultor.

El cultiu

Mentre el xufar creix, el llaurador ha d’arrancar les males herbes, en especial quan les plantes son menudes. Esta operació rep el nom de birbar i es fa amb les mans, amb una aixadeta, amb l’entauladora de ganxos o amb una birbadora composta de dues posts de fusta que a la part de baix porten claus i que van articulades perquè s’adapten a l'espai que hi ha entre cavallons.

Els xufars necessiten molta aigua i al llarg del seu cicle es reguen al voltant de quinzevegades. Generalment es fa un regó al mes en primavera i totes les setmanes a l’estiu.

La collita

Entre novembre i gener es cullen les xufes. Antigament, les plantes es lligaven en manolls i s’arrancaven. Després, la part de les arrels —a on estan les xufes— es posava damunt d’un garbell gran i, refregant-les amb una maça de fusta, se soltaven i se’n desprenia la terra.

Les plantes seques –la palla– s’emprava per als animals, però quan la quantitat d’estos amainà per la mecanització de l’agricultura i es varen introduir les màquines de collir, es va optar per cremar-la. La màquina de collir és un garbell cilíndric, accionat per una maneta, que es desplaça amb rodes: per un extrem s’introdueixen les xufes amb arrels i terra i per l’altra ixen netes.
