Duck Rice Farming in Japan

but I had won the fight with the dogs and this is how I was able to develop a rice farming system using ducks it's called duck rice love you grew that big taco has managed to create a symbiosis between various species of plants and animals in his rice paddies the Ducks have a dual role they feed on insects and weeds and their droppings enrich the soil their decomposing excrement promotes the development of plankton which in turn feed the fish taco has found that an aquatic plant the Azolla provided a natural and very important supply of nitrogen an essential element to strong rice plant growth thus the rice paddies can provide their own maintenance and protection without any chemicals whatsoever this method also solves a major problem that threatens the Asian rice paddies the Argentinian snail it was mistakenly thought that they could be marketed to supplement farmers incomes hey good about Jambo that is no tamago this are they go down but these are giant snail eggs today you can see them here and here and there the unica teeth are they feed on rice and on plants nothing up you know they do major damage in all the irrigated rice paddies of Asia they originate from La Plata in Argentina la Prada there they have natural predators I think I the only one but not here yeah i bus so they just multiply and multiply again nobody mafia in any here either it's a calamity for the rice I gotta go they eat it happy but Ducks love to eat snails they're edible they could go out I do have eaten some but they're not very good on the other hand when the Ducks keep them their meat becomes delicious the Eiger mullet a very baccarat all we see come on acrylic artemis sun sun go come on get the nose taco furrow knows technique attracted the attention of scientists and a professor at Kyushu University asked him to write a thesis on his method after a year of work performed in addition to his daily chores he obtained a doctorates degree mother 30 years of biological farming I never imagined it would get me a doctorate I think it's my duty to pass on what I know but thanks to the Ducks I think it happened spontaneously sorry what it what does he talk to us my method of production is very important to me and my family ties is this so Seca but also for everybody devil though what does it eat it dices die oh nice a guy I would like to share my ideas and my technique with a large number of people in order to develop Sonia take the city college easy too hot there's a state title up it's a bit in the spirit of sharing close it up the kill was also do you go to this a taco regularly welcome students from around the world he shows them his rice patties and accepts trainees to advise them on how to successfully implement the proper duck rice farming method Papa SAR is a Senegalese student to supplement his agricultural studies he comes to learn from the Japanese farmers experience LA metro de taco Asakusa compy una vamos a jury see yellow wah

music seasonally coming with you parva Neera their own mattress interior so they are doing it in the Panda inspired by the way ecosystems work tacos solve many problems common to small hold farmers around the world he can feed healthy products to his family he managed to diversify his production and therefore his revenues but more importantly he managed to protect his crops and to increase their yield while preserving the environment the common still do do i when you look at all the ducks in the rice paddies it's really marvelous around doesn't does it work it gives you a sense of tranquility and peace target any color other move to my role is to feed the ducks and then later on it's the Ducks who feed me come on irrational timoni LLC and all in all it can be considered a rather fair exchange my psyche I did notice of that oh yeah didn't his own taco took care of his ducks and rice paddies throughout the summer and now in late September it's harvest time he must first remove the last remaining duck families from the paddies although the majority of these ducks will be sent to market some will be kept to breathe the next generation and a lucky few will be returned to the wild tacos revenues have enabled him to invest in agricultural machinery that facilitates his work although duck rice is based on a traditional method taco ferrino is a modern farmer once harvested the rice is mechanically hauled and sorted in the farmyard taco and his family are now financially independent the duck rice harvest is sold almost exclusively via the internet and his order book is always filled before harvest time the Farina family keeps only a few kilos of duck rice for their personal use and for passing customers I know I even with its good taro I know chimera you know I couldn't know that today I know Bogota to have a Saturday night oh what's that Coco the Chi Nicodemus I know the hero metarex title my muscle hi Japanese agriculture is now going green more and more consumers are willing to pay a little more for their rice if they're convinced it's a healthy product it's a growing trend in agricultural cooperatives such as the one of the Fukuoka district in reality there is another factor that drives farmers to limit the use of chemicals they're getting more and more expensive yet in Japan tacos method even though more economical is still regarded with a certain skepticism hi Sue Smith I am very familiar with mister for Noel's duck farming techniques I think that this type of Agriculture is very good for nature and it's true that it is also an excellent form of Agriculture very effective so well as your other you I must say that it requires a lot of work it's very difficult to implement and to maintain a hint herckel I don't think that duck rice farming is difficult it's just a different cultural practice if you want to use chemicals exclusively it's not difficult to be a farmer anyone can do it just follow the instructions written on the package it's true that duck rice method is more demanding because we need to monitor both the rice and the Ducks with modern technology you just go to the rice paddy just once a day with duck rice you go there at least three times a day but you go with a smile here farmers believe that is difficult to care for animals yet it is not difficult because all I have to do is release the Ducks in the rice paddy and let them eat the weeds and the Insectarium would look around the farms income is about a hundred and fifty thousand euros per year this enables tako to support his family and pay for his children's education tacos Fame has not gone to his head and he continues to be amused by it a clever businessman he's even marketed a derivative duck rice product that is very much in demand with consumers Hey so is my duck sake selling wall- the clock you see it says here one duck a thousand treasures
