RICE HARVEST IN JAPANESE COUNTRYSIDE

#Agriculture"Due to unusually high temperatures, we harvested earlier than our usual mid-September period. With more experience in the fields, we harvested 815 kg of rice this year, up from 620 kg last year. The main reason for the increased harvest was successful planting. In rice fields, weeds can absorb nutrients and reduce yields, so it's essential to cultivate the rice early to prevent weed growth. This year, I leveled the fields several times and carefully planted the rice seedlings evenly, allowing them to grow steadily.
