scene in Bali. The terraced rice-field is typical of the beauty of the
Balinese countryside. Note the harmony of colors, the vivid green of the
coconut groves and the pale blue of the sky. Wet rice agriculture (sawah)
is the basic and most important activity of Balinese life; Rice is the
major crop and the staple food.
The Balinese make maximum use of what the environment offers. The terraced
fields extend for miles, up and down the hill, from mountains to the sea.
Cows are a very important part of traditional rice farming. They are used
for plowing and producing fertilizer. The Cow pulls a heavy wooden bar
across the field, in the initial preparative of the soil, to flatten it
into a smooth mud. The Cow does not work all day and are well cared for.
During the growth period of the rice, the fields are periodic flooded.

maintenance of irrigation networks. The water from single dam may be divided
into douses and even hundreds of channel to irrigate the terraced Sawah,
