For planting and harvesting of rice, it is difficult to maintain a high quality of a rice grains. Many hard tasks will experience by the farmer, before and after harvesting the rice grains. Before the rice seedlings ready to transplant, the farmer will plow the fields and clean the area.

Then the farmers will transfer the rice seedlings manually in the fields. They use pesticides to protect the leaves and stems of the rice plants. This generation, they now use machines for transplanting the rice in other countries.

| Irrigating the fields |
They maintain running water in the fields to give a healthy rice stem and grow faster. The pest like golden kohol attacks the rice stems so the farmer will spray to stop spreading the golden kohol.

| Healthy Leaves |
The healthy leaves indicate that its grows normally and faster as shorten the time for caring the rice plants. It will produce many rice grains but it depends on the variety of rice. Hybrid rice produce high grains but inbreed rice is much less than hybrid. They use the leaf color chart to identify the healthy and unhealthy of rice leaves.

The rice start to produce grains. After a month, it is ready to harvest, when the time that it will look like golden grains, it shows that it is ready to harvest.When the harvesting time comes, the farmers cut the stem and put it on the thresher machine for separating the rice hull and the rice grains.

All foods in the market are more expensive to buy. So the most important thing is RICE. Now, rice alone is enough than buy expensive food without rice. So don’t waste rice, don’t waste food!
