fighting with weed
as you can see, theres almost no weed in conventional rice paddies (the picture above), but theres a ton in our rice paddy (the one below) because we dont use weed killers.
so my dad and i have been weeding it almost everyday in the past month in the muddy rice paddy in a semi-crouching posture.
its so much work and is hard on my back and thighs. Its no wonder almost all the rice farmers use weed killers.
i personally enjoy weeding our rice paddy cuz its so much better for the eco system and it feels good to soak my legs and hands in a cool mud:)
you are welcome to come play in the mud or help me weed!
