In Mada they are in the midst of the rice harvest here and since there is quite a bit of space around our house (and we're just up the hill from the rice paddies ) they are busy beating the rice, gathering kernels, and piling up the chaff to be given to the cattle as feed. I went out to talk with the people to learn more about the process this morning. I took some pictures as well which I told them I would send to America to show how rice is harvested here.They were very excited that I wanted to learn about the process and even more excited that others would get to see what they do. So Enjoy
