With Technology It Works Faster And Saves Energy
Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh at this meeting, I will still tell you about technology in agriculture.
Previously, in my post, I explained that technology is getting more sophisticated day by day, such as tractors cutting rice, plowing rice fields, and how to plant rice.
On this occasion I would like to discuss planting rice as we know that every field in agriculture has its own sophistication, as I explained in the previous post.

With the development of the era of rice planting cars, various brands of rice planting factors were also presented in Indonesia by foreign companies. One brand that is widely used in several countries, namely Yanmar.
Yanmar tractor engines are not only for plowing fields and cutting rice, they are also made for growing rice as well. From each brand that is issued the object is also how it works and its advantages.
Like the Yanmar tractor brand, this brand is very much used in my area, especially in Aceh. With its advantages and disadvantages, it can convince farmers to use it.
However, this rice planting machine is not used by the community. Why is that my friend?? That's a question that will cross our minds. Because to plant rice with this machine, you have to plant rice in a special place.
If you use this treat, the rice seeds you want to plant must be placed in the mold, if you can't get the rice in place, you won't be able to plant it because this machine already has its own way of working.
If you do that, the people think it will be a hassle and the rice seeds won't grow well enough to be planted. Maybe that's what makes people not want to use rice planting tractor machines.
Even though with these tractors the farmers do not need a lot of money and effort, and the way they work will be fast.
Before technology developed in the world of agriculture. The community still grows rice traditionally by hand.
To plant, before the technology arrived, farmers had to plant rice with agile hands and it took days. And the way it works is limited.
Planting rice by hand is not easy, because it requires a lot of effort and money. If you have an area to plant rice, you have to plant a lot of it. In order not to day the rice fields.
Until now the cost of planting rice is almost the same as cutting rice by hand. The price is around IDR 60,000 per person.
And we wonder? Why do farmers still use their hands when planting rice.... In my opinion. It is easier for people to plant rice seeds directly in the ground than to plant them in a special place for tractors.
This is all my explanation at this time.
See you next time
