"we". Then the "farmer" West taken down turn in the language field cheering, shouting tourists west of the farmers and "ta" on the shore.


First, visitors are guided by plowing and harrowing, first the farmer holding plow and then followed them to their own treatment. Customers also awkward at first but after getting used to. They took steps to plow though full of mud flying but always faces exuding radiant joy. Do not forget the field so customers quickly tired, sweating and be shore to replace other travelers. The plots sometimes situations occur crying, half laughing. The number is to increase the gas tour organizers arranged two water buffalo to plow Western visitors comfortable and sort each apart, plowed under check.Sometimes farmers shouted "run around" (left) and "around May" (right) to 2 buffaloes from touching each other. But sometimes they forget that they are partners. So he asked his male buffalo themselves buffalo tattoo tattoo to follow her and pulled both the Vietnamese and Western visitors farmers on the farm. The concierge plowing relentlessly chanted "degrees," (standing), and Western visitors, then stop, stop, but "he, she" escaped buffalo still cantering step down together! When explained to Western visitors understand the reasons, Mr. West, she laughs and rolling West.

Foreign visitors to sow rice in the field
The meaningful experience!

Paul Lennehan England from Australia said their mood after the stages involved in agriculture: "After plowing through the job, implants, I felt very excited with the work of farmers, the more I love Dear rice cultures of you! Rice fields of you, your field is wonderful! This experience is truly meaningful to us ". Barbara Mahony and she then said: "Oh happy too! Great too! You are very friendly. After going through the hard work of farmers, I am extremely impressive, interesting with this tour. After this grain we will return to harvest! I sincerely thank you. "

We believe that the heartfelt words of them. Because we observed the scene from beginning to end farming, the tourist West was really getting excited and happy with each job. They were attentive and enthusiastic to learn in each job. Many Western visitors said, this is the first job that they are involved, which helped them to know which part of the job meaningful and hardships of the farmers, helping them more beloved civilization our rice.
