Wow. I live in Hoi A Vietnam and a lot of rice is grown like it has for centuries. I love watching the stages of planting and growing and harvesting. And they have ducks! Now I know a little more about it. Thanks
Wow, I would have had no idea you could grow rice here. I love the idea of using the ducks, and watching that rice planting machine, what I think is also ingenious is how it doesn't get bogged down and stuck.
Thank's GOD, i was born in Philippines all this stuff i experienced and I was happy because not everyone in this world experienced this kind of wonderful experience...😘😘😘
I have a small Rice farm , i really appreciate this kind of integrating Ducks to Rice plantation it help much to reduce Labor and purchasing pestesides and i think theres no Need for fertelizer
happy to see you guys doing this job, which we used to do when we were young back in the philippines. its a back breaking job because we dont use machinery before.but feels great when we have abundant harvest. thought only asians can do this job.
Wow ! I love to see USA rice products 🌾 in the stores instead of made in Thailand rice. I hope this rice is soft, moist, just like Japanese or Thailand rice, not very dry rice as we see in store. I think the ducks are happy to hear your voice, your singing.
Absolute saluti to what you are doing. I wish I could start my community project right now but will have to wait for the opportune moment. My idea is to show young people a way to a healthy and debt free life depending largely on mother nature for food, shelter and energy, all very viable. Gone where the days of aiming to get a higher education to feed the family. Not only that we have been conditioned so much to be useless at anything else to cope independently. All good past skills must be brought back. I will make it a point to pass on such skills and hence would invite people of all walks of life and skills to take part in my project. One of its kind in Borneo. Best wishes, bro. Keep up the good work.
For a moment judging by the green vegetation, I thought this was in South East Asia. Turns out its New England (region in United States). Beautiful land.

I bet that mud plays the devil with the machines. It always amazed me how they grew rice in a flooded. I first heard of using duck and geese in insect control was in cotton farming. thank for education on rice farming.
Thank you so much for the advice! Thank goodness I work from home, because today I have to keep running hot water outside, as my hose is frozen!! I need a proper farm with a barn so bad :)
One of the biggest problem in the rice field especially those birds called maya. When the rice starts to bear the grains that’s the time they attack the field. Have you experienced those kind of problem in your rice field? How can we get rid of those birds? Will they attack the rice field while those ducks are still there?
Thanks for this video. I am from india and in previous year viplab deb a chief minister of one of the indian state made a statement on the use of ducks in farming. The whole Indian media led by psedo left liberals criticized him . But this video proves that he was absolutely right at that time
While those ducks were on the paddy do you feed them with extra feeds or they were just feed mainly whatever in on the paddy area? I’m planning to do this kind of method in my small rice fields around an acre. Will 100 heads of duckings will enough or do I need more?
Hello! I got into owning waterfowl a few years ago and now have about 50 ducks and ten geese. I’m currently living in PA but plan to relocate to VT in a few years. Would you be able to suggest a watering system for when the temperature is below freezing? Normally I have about ten little tubs that I fill up with the hose as well as multiple kiddy pools. I am looking for a waterer that is heated but also prevents the birds from making the water thick with mud. I’d be willing to spend about $750, more if you think a specific waterer will last me for many years.
There is a really great older book by David Holderread, "Raising the Home Duck Flock." It is a fantastic resource. There is a watering system outlined where the water source is on a wire mesh platform what water can fall through and into a drain of some sort where the ducks can't get at it. The ducks walk up a mesh ramp to get water. This way they can't track mud into their water. With such a system you could use a little heating element and the water would not freeze.
