Before the arrival of sophisticated machines made workers tired and lazy.
And it requires a lot of time and effort. With the arrival of machines like this, farmers are more enthusiastic and cheerful when planting rice.
In agriculture, it's not just sophistication when plowing the fields. but there are also rice cutting tractors that are visible at this time. Various brands of rice cutting tractors are issued abroad such as Kubota, Yanmar and other brands.
With this tractor, it makes farmers fast when harvesting rice. The sophistication that each tractor has is different, which we can adjust to our own wishes.

The rice cutting tractor is perfectly equipped not only for cutting but also for producing rice seeds into sacks without waiting for a long time, and is ready to be sold to factories.
To use a rice cutting tractor, you don't need dry soil, but when it rains, a rice cutting tractor can also be used, because it has a chain material when walking on clay soil. however, if the rain is too heavy, causing the soil to get too deep, this tractor cannot be used because its weight can also sink into the clay.
Before the appearance of rice cutting tractors, farmers used their hands. How to use hands. The meaning of using hands does not mean just hands when the rice is cut. of course there is a sharp object that is held so that the rice can be cut properly. What objects can break up quickly? What are the names of these objects, namely sickles and sickles.
In Indonesia, sharp objects for cutting rice are called sickles and sickles. Cutting rice can produce sharp objects. What I mentioned we can use either a sickle or sickle. different places and different areas the weapons used to cut rice are also different but the purpose is the same.
When cutting rice, you must have special skills in cutting it, if you don't have special skills you can injure yourself, so special skills are needed.
The time needed when cutting rice by hand is very long, if there are two people cutting rice, the time needed will be very long. Well, usually when the rice fields are wide, the rice cutters must have several people, at least three people.

And the costs involved are enormous. When rice is cut by hand, the cost per person is around IDR 60,000, plus the cost of food and drink for each person.
When compared to today and in the past, farmers are very grateful at this time. why is that, as I explained above that with the sophistication of various tools farmers can work quickly and easily and don't require a lot of money.
While the rice is still being cut by hand, the rice must be collected beforehand so that the seeds are easy to get. Usually at my place before the appearance of the rice-cutting tractor, it took at least one day to collect the rice that had been cut, and even then it wasn't even raining, so it was very tiring when compared to the old days and nowadays.
The difference between today and in ancient times is that cutting rice is so sophisticated, all is cut and the seeds can be put directly into sacks.
In ancient times, rice could only be cut before being able to produce the seeds and the time needed was not fast, it had to take days from cutting to picking up the seeds and selling them to factories.
From my explanation above, we can only find agriculture like this in Indonesia, various places in Indonesia are almost like this in farming.
Maybe this is all I can explain about agriculture in Indonesia. Hopefully for those of you who are brave, keep up the enthusiasm
