My Home in Japan, Ohaga Nishi Tanada




It has been quite cool this year 2010 in spring, and the fields are planted a bit later than usual. Many tanada have been abandoned, others have been straightened out to make it easier for mechanical tools to work in the fields (and for the elderly farmers who tend to them).
