I really enjoyed that! They say it's an organic farm also. Simple life, hard work, and they're real pros at growing rice hey - wow.
without a trip to the market..

How fast could they plant that rice!? What was that metal tiller thing he pushed around between the rows of rice - was it a weeder?

The metal tiller thing, is a weeder they run between the row. Rice is processed the same way for a hundred years now, I don't think nothing much has changed for them, but the weeder which is newer item and is very popular with rice farmers. Oh! they make the weeders by hand.
