The pot bucket is also called Da bucket. It is surrounded by wooden boards and has an opening on the top.

Tang dad rubbed his hands and said, "look at my skills. Are you unfamiliar in the past for so many years!"

He picked up a handful of rice and raised it over his shoulder. The ears of rice hung down behind him.

Then, like a knife, cut forward!

The ears of rice were thrown forward from behind and hit the beating board with a "buzzing" sound. Then the golden and full grains of rice jumped into the bucket.

Tang''s father shook the rice rod, the blade rubbed "clatter", then lifted it up, "pa" and threw it on the beating board again.

A few rhythmic swings!

Many parents and tourists who didn''t participate in farming activities and just watched the excitement gathered around curiously: "what''s this?"

Tang dad explained with a smile, "this is threshing millet! Beating the millet down, drying and shelling is the rice we eat."

Someone on the side stretched out his thumb and said, "it''s an old hand at first sight! I''ll try it after playing, brother."

Some of the parents came out of the countryside and did farm work when they were young. At least they saw how their elders did farm work.

The children are basically grown up in the city. It looks very fresh!

This time I learned from scratch how the rice I ate appeared on the table.

Tang dad shook the rice pole, picked it up and observed, "well, this one has been cleaned."

He put the rice pole on the rice pile after cutting in the nearby rice field, shook his arm twice and sighed: "it''s really lack of exercise now. Sitting in front of the computer every day and beating the rice twice, his arm will be sour! Come on, brother!"

Just now, the parents, who were very excited about it, immediately took over and shouted to their children to send a handful of rice: "ha ha, I''ll play it too!"

Beating rice is much more tiring than harvesting. It''s a labor-intensive and technical job!

If the posture is wrong or the force is too strong, you may have back pain after playing for a while.

A skilled agricultural veteran can control the rhythm and intensity of beating rice without getting tired soon.

At present, threshers or automatic harvesters are basically used to thresh rice, which saves time and labor. Only a few areas still use this traditional way to thresh rice. We''re going to make a pot bucket here for the children to experience. Is it a complete set for farming.

However, the children haven''t had time to experience, and the parents are playing with great interest!

Line up to fight the rice, dry in full swing, the Rice hit the board, "bang bang bang" kept ringing, and there were more and more grains below.

This time, it''s the children''s turn to cheer their parents. They are just a little tired from cutting rice. They can take the opportunity to have a rest.

Put the sickle on the ridge next to you and drink two mouthfuls of water!

Qian Keke suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, frog!"

In the field, a frog seemed to be disturbed and jumped over her feet stained with soil.

When the children nearby heard this, they immediately gathered around and watched curiously!

They often visit the zoo and are very kind to all kinds of animals. They will not be suddenly startled by such small animals or insects. Even snakes have a certain tolerance.

Fang ye also walked over: "come on, there are no frogs. Come and have a look! Don''t get too close to scare it. Let''s keep a distance!"

He called everyone to come around and explained with a smile: "now we have attracted frogs in our fields. It''s really good.

In fact, there is also a very complex ecosystem in the rice field!

First of all, of course, rice is the most important. They are producers in rice fields. They continuously absorb nutrients under the soil, synthesize organic matter through sunlight, and finally transport nutrients to grains.

They are equivalent to energy plants in rice fields, providing food sources and shelter for other animals.

Many insects feed on rice, such as locusts, rice planthoppers and moths, which will affect the harvest of rice fields! "

The children gathered around and listened carefully!

Fang ye said: "however, in a rice field with a healthy ecosystem, there is no need to worry too much, because there are many beneficial agricultural organisms in the field, which can control the number of these ''pests''.

The most common is all kinds of frogs!

They lay their eggs in the water. They are a pile in their life. The hatched tadpoles grow up in the water and become frogs. Frogs have a large number and eat a lot. They are the main force to prey on pests! They can be called farmland guards.

In the fragrance of rice flowers, I say good harvest, listen to the sound of frogs!

However, due to the extensive use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers, frogs can no longer be seen or heard in many farmland in summer nights.

The appearance of frogs in our rice fields is a sign that the ecology is slowly recovering. "

Some parents on the ridge were stunned!

In the city, I can''t help but miss the countryside. In summer, wheat waves float with the wind, stars dot the Milky way at night, the fragrance of soil after rain, neighbors and elders chat and play cards under the big willow

Several times I took my children back to the countryside to relive my childhood, but I always felt a little worse.

It seems that the stars are not so bright at night, and the soil is not so fragrant. Now think again, it seems that I didn''t hear the frog''s cry!

I thought I had been in the city for a long time. My mind was impetuous and I couldn''t be down-to-earth.

But listening to Fang yeyi, I vaguely feel that it is really different from the countryside when I was a child.

Compared with melancholy adults, children are in a happy mood.

This rice was planted by yourself!

Looking at the frog sitting still in the rice field because of Fang Ye''s soothing skills, like looking at his favorite baby, he couldn''t help raising the corners of his mouth and had a small sense of joy.

When I visit the zoo at ordinary times, I also know that the survival status of many animals in the story books is not so good, or even precarious.

Sometimes I feel depressed and want to do something. I always feel powerless.

Every day we talk about protecting the environment and animals. How come there are more and more endangered animals? Can the blue star live in these ten, twenty, or one hundred years?

Will it be that when they have children, the environment has deteriorated to an irreparable extent, and scientists officially announce that mankind is about to die out?

Other environmental protection cases are too far away from themselves. Frogs grow in the planted rice fields, which happened under their eyes and witnessed the improvement of the environment.

For a time, it was full of longing and longing for a better future.

Fang ye said with a smile, "of course, frogs also have their own natural enemies. They will attract snakes!

Besides catching frogs, snakes are also good at catching mice. If there are snakes, you don''t have to worry about the proliferation of mice and eat all the rice.

Frogs and snakes attract herons. They are also frequent visitors in rice fields. Egrets and pond herons like to visit rice fields during the day and night herons at night!

You see, these creatures in the rice field naturally form a food chain. "
