Brilio.net - As a country with a tropical climate, Indonesia is known as an agricultural country. This means that this country still relies on the agricultural sector as the main livelihood of its citizens. This can be seen from several areas where there are still many vast areas of rice fields and plantations.
However, rice fields and plantation areas are usually always located in villages. So the profession of farmer is always synonymous with village people . Meanwhile, city people are known as urban people who work in the manufacturing sector.
Geographically, cities are areas that are densely populated and built, making it difficult to cultivate plants in gardens or rice fields. However, in the modern era, many innovations in farming methods have been created with various creative ideas.
One of them is the following agricultural lifehack. Reported by brilio.net from the Instagram account @selarasafoodlab, Friday, a video upload shows a different way of farming rice than what farmers do in general.

Instead of a large area of land, this group of farmers planted rice in a plot of land. However, what is unique is that they plant rice on the soil in the suitcase. Something that not everyone thinks about, right?
In the video, the farmers who call themselves the Kumbang Forest Farmers Group are shown selecting rice seeds which are then planted in soil with suitcases as pots.
" Planting rice in rice fields (NO), planting rice in suitcases (YES), " wrote the video caption.

These rice plants are planted in rows on the suitcase. It is known that each suitcase will be planted with 8-10 rice seed plants. You can also see dozens of suitcases lined up lengthwise with rice planted on them.
