Labour

A farmer checking his rice terrace. As the rice plants are young, they are planted in nice rows on horizontal terraces. As they have to have flowing water around them to grow good, the terraces are all interconnected. Water starts at the top, and slowly finds it way to the terrace below, and then to next etc. etc.

 

Other weeds are growing between the young rice plants, so the farmer removes these by hand. He also checks if the water flow is still good, and not being blocked by leafs or other large items that could jam the flow.
