Description

Agriculture: land usage Rice terraces prior to harvest in Indonesia. Flat valley bottom land is in short supply in this area, and the farmers have terraced the slopes to increase the amount of land available for rice paddies. Water management is crucial to rice cultivation and land gradients and paddy levels have to be carefully designed and maintained.
