Mindanao Diary: Harvested Rice (September 21, 2009)
Harvested rice is dried in the sun in a vacant lot behind the house.
The men stay on the harvested rice all the time, stirring it with a hoe from time to time to make sure it dries thoroughly!
I have never seen a fuel dryer here like in Japan!
My wife's sister, Raisa, is in 5th grade.
Raisa smiles as she holds the rice that has finished drying.
The rice here is elongated Inca rice
In Japan, rice was imported from Thailand a long time ago when there was a rice shortage.

There were 16 bags of 45Kg each.

The last 26 bags harvested in April were there at the end of August, which means they could be eaten for 5 months!
This time, 16 bags will last only about 3 months.

Well, it's a big family of 10.
