Planting rice paddies in Rolam village

Recording of people carrying paddy seedlings to their respective paddy fields in Rolam village in the Trashi Yangtse District of Bhutan. There is a shortage of water, so it is distributed equally amongst the paddy fields based on a lottery system. For this reason, some paddy fields are left without water, while others have plenty of water for rice plantation.
