You are not in the remote country of Nepal at the peak of the Himalayas, this scene is trinkets made of patchwork that is used by farmers in the village to drive out rice-eating birds. You could say this is one of the traditional methods that are still maintained by local farmers in tackling pests approaching the harvest season.
These patches are tied to a rope, at the end of the rope tied to used milk cans inside which are filled with marbles. When the rope is pulled repeatedly when the rice eater perched on the farmer's crop, a wave of the patchwork accompanied by the roar of marbles on milk cans can repel a number of these pests. A very simple traditional method is not it? but I see it is very effective to use today.
The planting and harvest season that does not simultaneously make a part of farmers must be swift to deal with the pests of these rice-eating birds. A number of rice-eating birds come from various areas around the rice fields because there is no adequate food source, the farmers' rice is the choice for their livelihood. Now that's a little photo story that I shared today, hopefully, useful and friends love it.
