The rice fields and terraces on Bali, are a work of art and community. All villagers share the work and responsibility of tilling, irrigating, and harvesting of the rice. More than 1200 Subaks (village associations) oversee the supply of water, and every farmer belongs to his village Subak. Usually, the farmer at the end of the water supply is in charge, insuring irrigated water to all farmers. This method of irrigation has been going on for a thousand years. My pictures are worth more than words . . .
