The rice harvest took place today.
This was the second harvest of the year. They plan to let the rice paddies rest for a month and then plant rice again in November.
When we arrived, the harvest was already over.
This is the threshing process.
The rice harvest is done entirely by hand, but threshing is done using an engine-powered machine.
Only the rice that has been threshed is packed into bags.
This harvest yielded 16 bags.
In the spring, we only had 26 bags, so this was a significant decrease in the harvest.
Apparently, this is due to continuous rain caused by typhoons during a crucial period.
It seems that some rice paddies suffered serious damage, such as the rice plants being knocked over, but our rice paddies were fine.
This rice is dried in the sun before being stored.
This is corn from a farm.
I've grown a little taller.
