The harvested rice is being sun-dried in the vacant lot behind the house.
The men have been constantly attached to the harvested rice, occasionally stirring it with a hoe to ensure it dries evenly.
I've never seen any fuel-powered dryers here, unlike in Japan.
Raisa-chan smiles as she picks up the dried rice.
The rice grown here is long-grain Inca rice.
In Japan, rice was imported from Thailand a long time ago when there was a rice shortage.
There were 16 bags, each weighing 45 kg.
The 26 bags harvested in April were apparently used up by the end of August, meaning they were able to eat them for five months.
Since there are 16 bags this time, it should only last about 3 months.
One problem with sun-drying is sudden changes in weather.
It started raining heavily on the way to Osamis's animal hospital.
The weather was so nice...
Were they able to evacuate without getting wet in the rain?
