We have just finished cutting, drying, bagging, selling, just under 50 Rai of rice. Tomorrow we will cut a further 14 Rai. we have bloody rice coming out of our ears, and yet! my mother in law can't wait to get into any fields that have been cut to start Gleaning. She is gone first thing in the morning and wont come home till dusk, worries the wife and her sister sick. She will bring home all her "gatherings" and sit and thrash it by hand, all on her own. When the rice is finished she will revert to spending all day either fishing, or digging up crabs from the fields. She is a true "Hunter gatherer" Does anyone else have a relation that does this?
