Summary

edit
Description
English: During the feudal period rice was used in lieu of money for many purposes and so all suitable arable land would be put to paddy use. From the 1870s onward cash and coin took over most currency functions, but still rice was a premium product so small and fragmented ground was gradually consolidated and reshaped into rectangles suitable for machine tilling, transplanting, harvesting, threshing and polishing off the husk and bran. This photo from 1985 shows the slow work of filling gaps by hand after the machine has laid most of the rows of rice seedlings.
