Rice Seed Planting (Tanemaki)
Local farmers are busy planting rice-seeds. About a month later, young rice plants will grow in the seed plots which are seeds and soil in the boxes.
These plants will be transplanted to the rice fields in the beginning of May.
The whole family of the farmers takes part in the rice-seeds planting. These days, the planting is processed automatically by the specialized machine.
The seed plots are placed in the plastic greenhouse.
