My father’s childhood was spent wandering around the countryside. The game with them is simply fighting, confetti, chicken grass, playing cards, fighting ticks, piggybacking, land cannons, river bathing, fish foul… More naughty, dad followed us to pick grapefruit, guava, baked potatoes, peanuts to eat. In the countryside, the older children teach the children to swim. The beaches, banks, and fields are deeply imprinted in my mind, until now, every time I have the opportunity to pass by, all the memories keep coming back. Children’s childhoods do not know if they are lucky or unlucky, there are no more popular games (adults still say that children now have no childhood). It has been replaced by Online Games, Tiktok, Facebook… Although there is a direction for children to explore, it is certainly in a different, very different direction! I hope that because of that, your hearts are poor in the ability to feel. Every time I go back to my grandmother, in the vast fields, in the windy afternoons, I hope that you are sharp enough to feel a little country spirit, even if only through the prism of children’s eyes. If possible, at some point, you should take off your sandals and wade into the mud with your bare feet to try to catch snails and crabs… I hope you feel a little country spirit… I just want your hearts to be nourished by simple, rustic but sincere things, not the hustle and bustle of life! The rest, when born, life will teach you. Just prepare your mind and accept it, everything will be fine, baby!

Chau Hong Vo brown rice is produced by Le Quoc Viet hotel in Kien Giang. Photo: THU NGUYEN That rice rice is now searched on Google with only two pieces of information that are nowhere to be found. Ngo Van Ban wrote: “In the past, farmers did rice once a year, and there were crop failures in some years, so it was very important to store rice for eating. If the rice is not stored properly, or the rice rots or is damaged by floods, they will have to suffer hunger and thirst” (1). And by Do Do: “About 50 years ago, my hometown produced 1 rice crop a year, domestic rice varieties (Rice Gon Bot, Gon Se, Nang Huong…), long growing time, high energy. low yield, but resistant to pests and diseases, good drought, no matter what time of planting, wait for the cold north wind to blow on the new rice to flower” (2). Both of these information about Khanh Hoa rice are lame, but can be complementary: cotton rice is a weak photosensitive rice, only made at the end of the year to reap. It’s not like it’s waiting for the north wind to return like Mr. Do said. And Mr. Ban ignored the early rice crop that was done before the summer rice crop. While there was no god-nose rice, there were still local varieties of rice with shorter duration than cotton rice, even quite short days like three-moon rice. Only those rice varieties are not as delicious as cotton rice. When I “put my feet up” in the field, my hometown grew two rice crops – the god Nong rice crop and the six-month rice crop. There is no concept of winter-spring, summer-autumn, autumn-winter at all. It’s the South! Divine rice – a word that ordinary Vietnamese often confuse with Mr. Than Nong in China. The names of the men must not be confused, they must know that the name honors the agricultural profession – the sacred farming profession. The main occupation of the Vietnamese people in the past has been shaken until now. The time of the god of agriculture was also the beginning of the “green revolution” for which its father, Norman Borlaugh, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Until the land became “infertile” like the three-rice crop fields in Vietnam, no one thought, even the “conceptualism”, to give him the Nobel Prize. Red rice Cotton rice planted in the low foot fields is reaped before the wicker season. The foot of the fields that eat the water of the sky often grow melon rice. That red rice has completely disappeared. It is the type of rice that resists the north wind and also makes the growers lose their breath when they were still threshing rice, and was transformed by poets into “threating rice in the night of the moon”, the threshing machine of the land of ginseng yet. enter the South. The grain of rice loofah is very tough, once threshed, it cannot sing. Once, when the rice was in season, my grandfather from Tu Bong and Van Ninh brought it to Dong De, Nha Trang, and gave it to the family. At noon, having a separate meal, my brother and I wanted to cry why “what red rice did you eat today?”. I don’t know if the younger brother “goes back” to eat red rice anymore, but now in this world, red rice is not easy to get and eat, even if he wants to find it, he wants to cry. Bad news! When I grow up, I wonder why rice is so red. Yet there are many types of explanations, sales crap, and science. The ST Red Rice website explains: “The red color of rice is due to iron. When rice plants absorb iron in the soil up in the bran layer, that iron is iron stamen, colorless. When the rice is ripe, the red color gradually increases, through the drying process, iron stamen turns into iron tam to red, becoming a useful source of nutrients for humans” (3). People of science and technology are not “salty” with this explanation. However, the story of iron-rich red rice is the story of Ngoc Do Huong Dua rice, a specialty of Lap Vo district, Dong Thap province. The variety was born around 2015. According to the analysis results of Can Tho University, the iron content in this rice is up to 26.4mg/kg, equal to the iron content in 0.9kg beef. The quality of this rice is superior to Jasmine premium fragrant white rice. The question is, when will the world like to let farmers get rich? Before that, around 2013, a farmer in Oc Eo, Thoai Son, An Giang, restored red rice and named it Hong Ngoc Oc Eo 1, a type of seasonal rice that grows up to 9 months. After that, the author of the rice variety, teacher Danh Van Duong, continued to multiply and cross-breed to give birth to the variety Hong Ngoc Oc Eo 2, with a growth period of 150 days. At Oc Eo 3, there are only 100 days left until the quality of rice begins to be questioned! There is an explanation in favor of the genetics of the variety, saying that because the variety is rich in anthocyanin pigments, it is red. Anthocyanins are organic pigments of natural origin that exist in most higher plants and in some vegetables, flowers, fruits, and seeds with red to purple colors such as grapes, berries, cabbage, and cabbage. purple, perilla leaves, hibicut flowers, black beans, eggplant berries, glutinous rice, red rice… This explanation stands. Out of red rice to red rice The story of my two brothers crying when eating red rice is like that, recently, having a meal of broken rice with seasonal rice of Tu Viet, his son at home wondered: “What kind of rice is not white at all?” Saying that seems like a criticism, but eat like a tiger. Tu Viet broken rice is “born in heaven” broken rice, not broken rice that has gone through “beauty salon” by forced “breaking” method. It’s like the dwarves who dream of Snow White by stretching their legs. Broken rice in the season only needs a cup of mixed fish sauce that is both salty and sweet, a little salty and a little sweet, with pickles of radishes and carrots is enough to give a thumbs up. There is no need to “slack” anything between the “curfew time” of the epidemic season for the complicated “medical declaration” before entering the market or supermarket. Tu Viet, whose full name is Le Quoc Viet, is an agricultural engineer, an economic officer, and was almost “cut off” because of the “crazy season of rice”. Seasonal rice is generally a long-term rice variety that produces high-quality rice. Especially, the rice varieties for fragrant rice of Thailand and Cambodia are only grown in the foothills of the field for one crop to eat water. Once with his friend D.TC passing through the vast one-crop field of Cambodia, at the time of leaving the country, he seemed to say to himself: “Why doesn’t Vietnam teach Cambodia how to farm!” Unexpectedly, a little later, Cambodian rice won the world’s best rice award for three consecutive years from 2013. Back to broken rice season rice. It can also make another dish, porridge. Broken rice cooked with porridge is number 1, sausages of Huu Nghi sausages are number 1, the problem is that you can freely go to Ban Co market to find other delicious offal. Enough to have an “ecosystem” of porridge heart porridge than Cai Tac heart porridge far away. The story of broken rice in the season is still hot, and Tu Viet has launched a type of rice called Chau Hang Vo to the market. The people of this South are so strange, they run out of rice from Chau Hang Vo and then mango Chau Hang Vo. The name rice is read from Chau Hong shell – a kind of pink shell jade; Westerners used to call a grain of rice a pearl. The name mango is from Chau Nghe mango. Could it be that Ba Vuong farewell has been deeply ingrained in the daily life language of the people below? Tu Viet recounted: Recently, I met Ms. TK, who is originally from Can Tho, who only made Chau Hong-hulled seasonal rice. Mr. Viet quoted Ms. K. as saying: “I also like the name Chau Hong shell very much, but the people of Can Tho just like to call it Chau Hang Vo. When it comes to Chau Hang Vo rice, people immediately say that the rice is very delicious and doesn’t need much food. As I personally feel, eating rice is really healthy and strong like Mr. Xiang Vo, that’s why his grandparents called him Chau Hang Vo to emphasize the nature of the rice grain of heaven for the people of Can Tho. Rice cooked with brown rice in Chau Hong season is fragrant and flexible. Photo: THU NGUYEN The first time Vietnamese investment came to know about Chau Hang Vo’s seasonal rice variety was through the Soc Trang Rice Festival in 2011. The second time in 2018 through the story of an 82-year-old farmer, who used to work in shambles. The old man said that when he was young in the Miet Thu area, Kien Giang “has the Chau Hang Vo season rice variety with a characteristic aroma; If I go canoeing down the river, I will know when I pass a house that is cooking rice with Chau grade Vo rice.” Tu Viet worked hard to find seeds and bring them back to try. He said: “During the process of taking care of and cherishing the newly planted seeds, I found that the Chau Hang Vo variety has a slender, slightly elongated shape, most of the seeds have a swish tail, the husk is bright yellow but when soaked in water. It has a dark pink color because the bran layer (silk shell) is purple-red, if the bran layer is scraped, the rice grain is still light pink, not white like some other varieties. On Friday, after Ho Chi Minh City social distancing for 15 days, I received rice with many anecdotes from Tu Viet sent from Kien Giang. Rice consists of two types of brown and bran. Brown is dark red, milled rice is pink to yellow. Chau Hong brown rice with shell holds up to 2 countries, 1 rice is just cooked rice. While cooking with the rice cooker, the rice had a strong aroma. In the past, cooking with firewood must have a more unique aroma, especially when the water is boiling, open the lid of the rice cooker to check if the water is drained or not. The ancients still liked to save that “pearl milk” to nourish children and the elderly. Now, the “grandmother” of the rice cooker is better, but not like the old mother in the place of distilling rice water. Chau Hong brown rice has a soft, flexible shell. Eaten with braised pangasius slightly candy, above all delicious. Those who have the memory of the rice season are also rewarded with memories flowing from their hearts full of silt and nostalgia. You seem to be eating in the middle of the scene of planting, planting, harvesting, drying. Grinding and pounding rice.

Cultivating terraced fields in Hoang Su Phi. Photo: Duc Long Hoang Su Phi is a district located in the west of Ha Giang province. From Ha Giang city, it takes about 3 hours to reach Vinh Quang town – the capital of Hoang Su Phi district. Setting foot in Hoang Su Phi land, visitors will be immediately attracted by the terraced fields of harvest, golden sunshine like honey, beautiful scenery like in fairy tales. Then there are cultural festivals imbued with national identity, very strange, wild and strangely attractive. Hoang Su Phi land is located on the ground with an average altitude of 800m above sea level. Here, the terrain is strongly dissected, high mountains, deep valleys, many streams, primeval forests … very suitable for the development of various types of adventure tourism, discovery tourism. Hoang Su Phi also hides in her a unique cultural treasure of ethnic minorities such as Dao, Mong, Nung, Clao, La Chi. In addition, referring to Hoang Su Phi, people immediately think of terraced fields stretching like stairs to the sky. A rare masterpiece in Vietnam’s wet rice civilization was created by human hands to adapt to the soil, climate and irrigation conditions bestowed by nature. The terraced fields were formed in the process of natural improvement, expanding the wet rice cultivation area of ​​ethnic minorities living throughout the Hoang Su Phi strip of land. Through the survey, most of the ethnic groups living in Hoang Su Phi district have mastered the technique of terraced farming such as La Chi, Tay, Nung, Dao… However, each ethnic group has its own experiences. different techniques and experiences. Hoang Su Phi terraced fields in flood season (flood season) Hoang Su Phi has a strongly dissected terrain and steep slope, so the people cannot grow rice by shifting cultivation, but instead, they have to take advantage of low hills, wide areas, and moderate slopes. Right, taking advantage of both rain water and spring water leading from high altitudes to low fields to form terraced fields. The exploitation of terraced fields requires appropriate techniques and terrain. Depending on the terrain and topography of each region, the fields are wide, narrow, long, short, high, and low. In the past, through each production season, households who found that there was a shortage of arable land would choose in the family’s forest and shifting fields the most suitable location, closest to the water source, to develop into fields. Currently, because the land is less and less, the most fertile land has also been cleared into terraced fields, the choice of land does not require as many requirements as before. The government’s policy of land allocation and forest allocation also somewhat limits the choice of places to exploit for farming. Usually, if the previous year’s hill area is cleared and the land is still there, they will continue to do it, when the land runs out, they will find another hill to explore. When families have a need to explore new fields, they will gather together to do the work in exchange. The farming season of the Dao people in Ban Luoc and San Sa Ho communes usually starts right after the Tet holiday, while the La Chi people in Ban Phung commune open their fields in the rainy season, from April to September of the lunar calendar. Before proceeding to renovate the field, they also need to carefully calculate the length and width of the field, the low altitude between the fields, the location of the water channels, the way to conduct the water … effort, time consuming. Usually they will ask elderly people who have experience in clearing fields to take care of the design of the fields. The selection of farming sites is carefully conducted by the local people. The area that meets the requirements must be a place where the soil is loose, fertile, without big rocks, formerly a primeval forest. The slope of the land is not large, it is possible to create a wide and long field. The most important thing when choosing land to exploit is that in the area or nearby there must be a source of water, a place where water can be brought to the field easily and without much effort. Once the calculations are done, get to work. The first is to create a field surface, the tools to exploit the field are very simple, only a hoe, a pickaxe, a wooden harrow and a knife. The process of clearing the field is started from the highest place to the lowest. Depending on the topography and slope of the hill, the height and width of the terraces are also different. Once the ground is available, they proceed to embankment and then bring water to soak the field feet. Usually, it is not until the next year’s crop that they start plowing. For the Red Dao people in Ho Thau commune, they subtract a small area of ​​forest around the field for each area of ​​the field to keep the land from landslides; while the La Chi in Ban Phung commune keep the top layer of soil. After clearing the field, they spread that layer of soil and cultivate it right away. In order for the fields to be shaped, shaped, can be cultivated and ensured productivity, the farmers in Hoang Su Phi have spent many days in the rain. The work of cultivating the fields is continued by the ethnic people here from year to year, from generation to generation, creating the slopes of the fields like monumental art paintings hanging on the hillsides. The industrious and creative labor of the people of Hoang Su Phi has helped to make life full and create a beautiful picture of nature. The golden rice mats in the shape of raspberries, streams, and winding rivers continue to stretch to the horizon. From his labor, the farmer drew a beautiful picture of nature from the song of breaking the ground. Developing tourism associated with the heritage of terraced fields Hoang Su Phi terraced fields in the ripe rice season. Photo: Duc Long Mr. Then Ngoc Minh, Chairman of the People’s Committee of Hoang Su Phi district said: The terraced fields in Hoang Su Phi not only ensure food for the people but also create an attractive tourist product, because of its high aesthetic value and high aesthetic value. rich in art. In recent years, not only encouraging, mobilizing and supporting farmers to get rich on terraced fields by measures, such as: Bringing new high-yield rice varieties into production, planting winter crops; At the Party Committee level, the government of Hoang Su Phi district also promotes tourism development based on the available potential as the National Monument of Terraced Fields. “In order to promote the full value and create different tourism products, in the coming time, Hoang Su Phi district will create many conditions to attract and promote investment in community tourism in the terraced fields or areas. specific products associated with people’s agricultural cultivation, such as: Water season; encouraging the planting of specialized crops or the same type of rice to have the same ripening time, harvest time… At the same time, the district also focuses on investing in transport infrastructure, projects related to terraced fields, Key projects with the emphasis on terraced fields such as paragliding grounds, check-in points, stopovers, terraces sightseeing spots …”, Chairman of the District People’s Committee Hoang Su Phi, Then Ngoc Minh affirmed. Up to now, Hoang Su Phi has over 3,720 hectares of terraced fields spread throughout 24/24 communes and towns. In 2012, terraced fields in 6 communes (Ban Luoc, San Sa Ho, Ban Phung, Ho Thau, Nam Ty and Thong Nguyen) of Hoang Su Phi were certified as a National Monument by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. family. By 2017, 5 more communes (Ta Su Choong, Ban Nhuong, Po Lo, Thang Tin, Nam Khoa) were added to the list of terraced fields in the heritage area. The whole district has over 2,196 hectares of terraced fields in the protected heritage area. From value and promotion, the image of Hoang Su Phi terraced fields is now not only limited to domestic but also international. For many years now, foreign tourists have known Hoang Su Phi through the path of travel and discovery, especially discovering and experiencing the heritage of terraced fields. However, for terraced field tourism in Hoang Su Phi to develop sustainably and create long-term livelihoods for local people, the locality wants the province to continue to have orientations to guide tourism development; pay more attention to the investment in facilities so that the locality can focus on developing tourism in the direction of agricultural tourism, community tourism combined with preserving the national cultural identity to attract tourists. .

Only about 45 minutes by car from Hanoi capital, life in Kim Long commune, Tam Duong district, Vinh Phuc province still retains the rustic beauty, keeping the character of the old village of the North. When the harvest comes, the rice is fully ripe and spreads all over the countryside. The farmer wears the hot sun and wind of a summer day, reaping the fruits of nearly 3 months of labor. In the past two years, when the mechanization of agriculture came to the villages, the image of harvesters appeared in the fields. But in the village of Tam Duong, farmers still reap rice with ox carts. Most of the people in Kim Long commune are engaged in agriculture, and their year-round life is associated with fields. Returning to the village is like returning to our national roots, living in a peaceful and deep space, inhaling the scent of ripe rice with cool breezes. After the rice is harvested, the field is left with dried stubble. In the traditional way, people burn rice straw – both to clean the field, kill the germs of pests and diseases, and as a source of nutritious fertilizer for the next crop. The columns of smoke kept soaring, spreading throughout the space and blending into the sky. Having been born in the village, when going out, no one can not miss the taste of the village, the busy atmosphere of the harvest and the leisurely afternoons watching the vast fields. The sun gradually disappears behind the bamboo groves, the farmer gathers up his farm tools, rests on the side of the field, enjoys the cool breezes that dispel all his worries. Another crop has passed. When the evening light falls, it is also time to gather around a cozy tray of rice, rest after a day of hard work and talk about a crop.

Almost everyone has at least a few stretch marks. Stretch marks can even be viewed as a good thing, as they are a clear sign of changes happening in your body and the way your skin communicates. “Stretch marks are a natural part of the skin and changes we go through throughout our lives,” says Samantha Ellis, a dermatologist and clinical instructor of dermatology at the University of California, Davis. These ugly stretch marks are a type of scarring that occurs when areas of skin rapidly expand or contract. This sudden change damages the skin’s important structural fibers – collagen and elastin, leading to stretch marks as the skin heals. The care or healing of stretch marks requires a proactive approach. Here’s a guide to preventing and treating stretch marks. Causes of stretch marks Pregnancy is one of the best known causes behind stretch marks, with sudden weight gain being one reason. However, according to Dr. Ellis, anything that promotes a rapid change in body size can cause stretch marks. This includes losing weight or gaining muscle too quickly. In addition, genetic factors can play a role in the cause of stretch marks. So don’t be surprised when stretch marks appear without an element of unexpected weight gain or loss. Remember that the reason behind them is what you need to pay attention to. Pregnancy is one of the causes of stretch marks in women How to prevent stretch marks The skin like fields in the drought season is not a secret pain of women. The question is, is there any way to erase those ugly stretch marks? According to Dr. Ellis, people can fade cracks and limit the formation of new cracks, but cannot completely treat them. To overcome the condition of skin cracks, it is recommended to have a reasonable diet, supplement with vitamins and appropriate exercise regime to increase the flexibility of elastic fibers. Besides, moisturizing the skin prevents some stretch marks. The lotion contains vitamins E, C and A, and jojoba oil to help smooth skin and reduce dryness. Also, stretch marks are notoriously difficult to treat and tend to be better treated in the early stages (still pink or red). That means you should be wary of products that claim to fade stretch marks and ingredients that don’t have the science to back them up. Clinic treatments include laser therapy, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, ultrasound, and radiofrequency.

Food of field crabs must be fresh, not stale, moldy. Need to feed the field crabs enough, if the crabs lack food, it is easy to eat each other. Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong, Yen Tho commune, Dong Trieu district, Quang Ninh province harvests field crabs from her family’s farm. In ponds and fields, it is necessary to arrange a number of eating floors to assess the crab’s catching status, and at the same time to adjust the amount of food according to weather conditions. In the last months of the crab farming cycle, it is necessary to add more animal food in the diet to make the crabs grow fast and firm. It is possible to add more field tilapia and tilapia to eat crab leftovers, reducing water pollution. Field crab is the type that adapts to cool weather, so it is necessary to alternately plant water spinach, rice, and cash crops to keep the crabs’ shade in the summer. The water environment also needs to be kept clean and regularly change the source of water in and out to stimulate crabs to molt and catch strong prey. “Investment capital for crab farming is very low, mainly hiring workers to dig ponds, buy corrugated iron and bamboo poles to enclose the embankment. Currently, every day, my family earns about 3-4kg, selling 150,000 VND/kg ‘, Ms. Huong revealed. Through research, seeing that field crabs are popular with many people, taking advantage of low-lying rice fields for low productivity, Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong studied and brought back field crabs to release on her field. Because field crabs have no place to produce seed, they have to buy from people who go wild. Ms. Huong said: “At first, I bought crab seed from traders from Hai Duong to release, but each release the number of dead crabs was up to 70%. After a few dead crabs, I learned from experience that if I want to have a high survival rate and grow up quickly, I have to buy native breeds…” “In addition to raising commercial crabs, I also zoned the field and selected some adult crabs to breed separately. Here I will invest in buying brick holes to build banks, planting many layers of concrete pillars, with The purpose is to let the crabs live in, creating a favorable environment for the crabs to grow and develop better”, Ms. Huong added. Talking to us, Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong, Chairwoman of the Farmers’ Association of Yen Tho Commune (Dong Trieu Town, Quang Ninh Province) said: “Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong’s model of field crab farming has brought high economic efficiency. . From the initial results, in the coming time, the Commune Farmers’ Union will direct the grassroots branches, exchange experiences, and mobilize people in the commune to replicate this model. Especially, taking advantage of low-lying areas and inefficient rice-growing areas to develop commercial crab farming models, contributing to increasing income and improving the lives of members and people.

The homeland of the M’nong Rlam people is like that, full of chun and nul (swamp), which Lo (wetland rice fields) is formed in those chun and nul. They know that bha (rice sowing) since the Kinh people in the delta still have to sow rice seeds to create seedling and then transplant. Farming, being that “water rice”, is a special upstream, because when it comes to the Central Highlands, I don’t understand why Kinh people immediately think of life with a civilization of shifting cultivation, farming, or industrial crops. after that. Remember, this highland wet rice civilization has nothing like the nature – the characteristics – the concept of books that Vietnamese (and international) professors write about “civilization”. wet rice” such as in the Red River Delta, Mekong River, Chao Phraya River (Thailand), Irrawaddy River (Myanmar) or in Malaysia, Japan, Korea, Philippines… The fields and villages of the M’nong Rlam people. The M’nong Rlam community earns a living from wet rice, but the spirit of life leans heavily towards the mountains, the spirit of greatness, admires Yang Bre, Yang B’Nom (the god of the forest, the god of the mountain) and all beliefs, habits, rituals are for the forest, for the sun, not for the moon. They have lived like that for decades. They are Australoid and speak an ancient Mon-Khmer language. What is more interesting and unique is that their life form is not like the M’nong people in the central highlands (in Dak Nong province now), the M’nong Nor, M’nong Prang, or M’nong Gar groups. not far from them, and especially the Ede. Their M’nong quality is a unique marriage between the life and culture of the original M’nong ethnic group in the southwest and the nearby Ede (ancient Austronesian) ethnic group in the north of their homeland. Only they have all the wonderful essences of M’nong and Ede. The house does not drop to the ground like the M’nong Gar people, nor does it raise the floor like the long house of the Ede people, but falls in the middle of the other two living spaces – that is, just enough to get off the ground. That they stay in the house on stilts – the long house. That space off the ground is “great”, just enough to avoid the earth’s vapor, and the “drop” space is also strangely smart, just enough to not touch the hot, blue sky. Thinking and lifestyle in harmony with nature. * In the fertile fields out there, the rice seeds they sprouted and then spread out into the mud. About three months to harvest. In the past, the rice was cut by hand and the buffalo pedaled, but now also “play” with the reaper and the thresher. But here and there, the hobby of cutting rice remains. Nul, jar, sheet bhum (rice plant), ple bhom (rice grain), grang pai (rice grain) are not only crops, agricultural products, goods but also “loved ones”, companions. Going to cut together, as a family. This season starts harvesting for one house first, then the other season starts from the next house, and so on. If someone’s field is ripe first, then sit back at the table to flexibly adjust and agree to “settle”. Fairness happens naturally, almost completely. If there is a theft of rice, or theft of rice, it will be imported by free migrants, never from the M’nong Rlam community. Two rice crops a year, no worries about lack of rice. Food, vegetables, meat, fish are on the slopes of mountains, in fields, lakes, lagoons, gardens; planting and bartering, and even buying. It reminds people of what is simple and pure, in harmony with heaven and earth, plants and trees, about the peaceful life that was once real in the world. And, the forest is tolerant, chivalrous, immense kindness. “Where there is a forest, there is food”, the M’nong have a saying. * The twenty-first century has passed a fifth, and oh behold, the long houses of wood combined with bamboo and the wild lifestyle are still rife. The forest has been stripped white even in the mountains, because of the times, the fields appear in their original form. The To, Yel, Kdie, Dham, Pai Bi, Triek, Mih, Duong Krieng, M’Lieng, Le, Jun, Bong Krang, Yang Tao… in Lak district (Dak Lak) are filled with such longhouses. The basket became the inseparable object of M’nong women. The figure of the woman still casts shadows on the houses. They still carry bags on their shoulders up and down the long house. The woman is the owner of the kitchen, and the owner of everything on that long house, and in the fields near and far. The matriarchy, and the children bearing the mother’s surname, stand tall in the midst of this modern age. However, the man is still respected and respected. They still eat hot pot, drink beer, talk about Saigon, Hanoi – from the internet. They still wear jeans, ride motorbikes, and wear sunglasses. But the most meaningful days for them are still baking all that can be eaten, drinking the wine from the jar. They go back to their nature when they can. They do not accept lying when sitting together. Lying will make people smaller, and lose “place” in the community. They take “love” as the quality of life. Take love and sharing as the goal. And material and comfort as tools and means for the other two. All humanity knows the core and ultimate life value in life, but if they can’t do it, here, the M’nong Rlam can do it, gently, naturally… * Every time they wandered, rested, slept, stayed in their long house, how could it feel close, warm and natural. Is not to be careful in walking, speaking, looking, watching, listening, reading. You can sleep anywhere you like. I like to sing whenever I feel inspired. No need to say hello or thank you much. They say gifts for them should not be bought with money but come to them, and remember them when going. They say that they have something to eat when they stay at home, never planning food, drinks, space layout. Bon of the M’nong people who work in wet fields since ancient times has been organized in a lang class. “Modern” and “civilized” are in this spirit of life, not far away. Luxury is the spirit of luxury, not the person, the place, the food, the place to stay, the place to play, the place to talk. The needy soul, the messy heart, no matter how beautiful the dress, how expensive the car is, how big the house is, it’s just fooling your own heart and fooling people. The true happiness of anyone under this sky is also peace. * Thirty-five years ago, the forest still filled those arctic mountains and licked down Lak Lake. In the field is also bustling with aquatic species, let alone rivers and lakes. Absolute purity, originality, originality. And basically there are only M’nong Rlam people, and M’nong Gar people are nearby. Now, dozens of ethnic groups flock here. The land is suddenly cramped, compressed, and pressured on the mountains, down the fields, swamps, and lakes. These M’nong bon are suddenly wrapped, peeled off from the green, suddenly playing with. Pity. Here and there, people from Buon Ma Thuot, forty-five kilometers from them, began to open tours that brought tourists from far away to their places to earn money. Truthfulness, wisdom, and civilization are exploited by shrewdness. Tourist footsteps pressed on his head, the branches and grasses there were buried thick. I love for the model of the world’s pure and beautiful life in the midst of the tumultuous world everywhere and especially when it is in the plans of those far away who do not create value, do not commit, pay tribute. Donate and focus on reaping benefits in the easiest way. This world has been shaken and broken by the trend of “materializing” the world, “convenience”, “maximizing”, “devising”. When is M’nong Rlam’s turn? Articles and photos: Nguyen Hang Tinh

Tran Trinh Huy (1900 – 1974) was the third son of Mr. Tran Trinh Trach, the richest landowner in Bac Lieu. Mr. Trach has 7 children including 3 boys – Tran Trinh Dinh, Tran Trinh Huy, Tran Trinh Khuong – and 4 girls. All 3 sons are notorious playboys, but the most prominent is still Uncle Huy. Prince of Black, Prince of Bac Lieu Tran Trinh Huy Uncle Ba Huy was born at a time when Mr. Council Trach’s estate was at its peak. Ba Huy’s childhood and childhood lived completely in luxury. Throughout the day, Uncle Ba was pampered and played to his heart’s content. Studying was not interested by Ba. However, when he was growing up, he had to meet the fashion trend of young people to study abroad in France, so Ba Huy asked his father’s permission to study abroad. With the concept that the surface field is not equal to giving his son a letter, Mr. Trach Council tried everything to let Uncle Ba go on the road. After three years in a foreign land, Uncle Ba returned home. In order to welcome the return of his son to be worthy of the family routine, Mr. Trach Council from Bac Lieu to Saigon went to the car company on the corner of Charner (Nguyen Hue) – Bonard (Le Loi) to buy a new car. Although the family’s old Ford is still in use and is the coveted dream of many people. Uncle Huy’s car. This car is currently on display at the Bac Lieu Prince’s showroom Looking at the council man with his grandmother’s clothes, with the … countryside with a faint smell of rice, the car salesmen showed disdain. Regardless, the councilman told his companions to choose the most luxurious, best and most expensive car for him. He sat in that car. Cozy, comfortable. Satisfied, the councilman pulled out the mound and opened it. Countless piles of money made the car salesman roll his eyes. After buying a car, the car was on duty at Nha Rong wharf to wait for the train carrying his son from France to return to the wharf. Uncle Ba Huy ashore to get on a new car next to it, carrying parents and relatives back to Bac Lieu. The car, driven by Uncle Ba Huy, ran at a fairly high speed, making the people sitting in the car tremble with fear. Sitting in the car, the council asked about his learning situation, he calmly replied that he only likes to learn to fly a plane, learn to dance, learn to drive as well as travel to visit farming. of the French. He also did not mention that he left the capital of light a French wife and a half-blood child. Unlike Bach, because he loved the stage, when he went to France, besides having fun, he also approached the Western stage, Ba Huy only focused on agriculture. Uncle Ba accumulated a little capital for farming, so he was then assigned by the council to look after the estate. However, being not interested in the job, Uncle Ba immediately hired a Frenchman to look after and manage the land and gardens. In his spare time, he indulges in playing, leaning with love affairs, going crazy with red and black animals… Compared with the king Going to Bac Lieu to meet the elders, you can hear anecdotes about . This anecdote follows the waterfall anecdote that makes the story of Ba Huy even more vivid. The story is told that after being assigned to manage the estate by his father, every time he visited the field, his father wore a cravatte vest and sat in a Ford vedette. In areas that have to travel by water, he uses canoes. At that time, all vehicles on the river were rowing. His father’s canoe to visit the fields powered by a machine is indeed a rare image in the countryside of Bac Lieu. Moreover, every time he plays sports, he uses a Peugeot sports car. This car was in the South at that time, in addition to his father, only one other person used it, King Bao Dai. Legend has it that in this world, Uncle Ba is not inferior to anyone, including kings. So whenever King Bao Dai had something, Ba Huy got it, including an airplane. The small plane was bought and brought back to Vietnam. Thanks to his time in France, he learned to fly, so Uncle Ba is a pilot who controls the plane every time he visits the field. King Bao Dai’s plane was purchased with public funds. Only Bac Lieu’s son is the only Vietnamese who owns a private jet. The reputation of Bac Lieu’s son’s way of life and play resounded throughout the land of Cochinchina. He lived in harmony with farmers, understanding the plight of farmers. He is willing to reduce rice, write off debts for special circumstances. He also enjoys playing. Once he flew a plane to visit the fields in Rach Gia, he went to Ha Tien. The scenery of Ha Tien was so beautiful that he kept wandering around in the sky until the fuel gauge ran out, he had to land at a nearby airport. Unfortunately, that airport is in Thai territory. Thai authorities impounded the plane and then fined an amount equivalent to 200,000 bushels of rice. Mr. Trach Council had to mobilize a rather long group of boats to carry rice to Thailand to pay the fine to welcome his son back. A newspaper at that time named Le Courrier Saigonnais also published information about this aircraft purchase event. The expression “Bac Lieu’s son” was born in the early 20th century to refer to the children of rich people who are more interested in playing than in learning and working. At first, this idiom was just to generalize about the rich children in Bac Lieu, but later on, because Ba Huy’s play performance was so outstanding, everyone understood that when it came to this word, it was referring to him. Prince of Bac Lieu Tran Trinh Huy is a special phenomenon that is probably difficult to find a second person in this world.

Newspaper Vietnamese culture Introduce two types of combined sugarcane harvesters: large capacity combined sugarcane harvesters and mini sugarcane harvesters. Mini cane harvesters With a compact size, light weight makes the machine flexible. The knife can be stored deep into the soil layer 20-30mm, so it greatly limits the rate of damage to sugarcane. It can neatly collect sugarcane in a variety of natural states including spilled cane. The machine is equipped with an advanced hydraulic control system adapted to different terrains. Especially with mini machines, the low oil consumption can be below 0.15 liters per hour of operation. The machine is compact, portable, suitable for small and medium-sized sugarcane farms. Sugarcane harvesting machine THM 2.0 by engineer Le Quyet Tien. Interestingly, in 2013, engineer Le Quyet Tien from Nam Dinh and his colleagues invented the THM-2.0 mini-complex cane harvester which was put to trial and application under production conditions in Hiep Hoa. (Long An) and achieved the same productivity and quality standards as the imported machines before: The machine works in complex areas of sugar cane, and can harvest spilled sugarcane. Pure yield is high, can reach 0.21 ha / hour Standard cutting rate ≥ 80%, can cut close to the base without missing and do not crush the sugarcane, spread the trees evenly to the direction of the machine. The hydraulic devices of the machine work smoothly, stably, and operate easily and gently. Up to now, this type of machine is still preferred in small and medium sized sugarcane farms.

“On flowers, under flowers” The two sides of the road leading to the center of Tan Tru town (Tan Tru district, Long An province) are dragon fruit gardens, green rice fields. In particular, many gardens are covered with vacant land with colorful carpet of ten o’clock flowers. On these gardens, people do not let the dragon fruit beds grow weeds or leave them empty. Instead, they planted many varieties of ten o’clock flowers of different colors and sizes of flowers. Hung’s dragon fruit beds are covered with colorful flowers ten o’clock. Many kinds of flowers in ten o’clock with colors purple, pink, red, yellow … are planted along the straight rows of dragon fruit by the garden owner. Only a few days, this flower with vigorous vitality has covered the bare land on the soil of dragon fruit cultivation. When the flower is ten o’clock not yet flowering, from a distance, these dragon fruit gardens are like a jade green carpet. At the time of blooming, the green carpet turns into a “checkerboard” with red, purple, and yellow stripes from the ten o’clock flowers. The soil is rich in nutrients, so the flowers at ten o’clock grow very well, giving flowers dense, large flowers, eye-catching colors. Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Hung (45 years old, living in Tan Tru district), the owner of a dragon fruit garden intercropped with flowers for ten hours, said he planted this flower in the garden all year round. “The moment the dragon blooms, under the tree, the flowers will produce flowers at ten o’clock. It can be said, at this time, my dragon fruit garden “on flowers under flowers” looks very eye-catching. Not far from Hung’s newly harvested orchard is a field with a dragon fruit garden in bloom. This place is also covered by garden owners with ten o’clock flowers for yellow, purple, red flowers … Anh Hung said that the ten-hour planting of flowers in the dragon fruit garden is very simple. “The land of Tan Tru is very much like ten o’clock, the garden owner just needs to ask for trees to cut them into small pieces and spread them on the garden. After a few days, ten o’clock will cover the soil and give brilliant flowers”, shared Hung. Seen from the road surface, the green dragon fruit garden stands out with purple, red, and yellow dots from the ten o’clock flower. In particular, small waterways for watering dragon fruits are also covered by this vibrant flower, blooming yellow flowers. Against weeds, creating landscape Near noon, ten o’clock flowers bloom brightly, covering the dirt trench between the rows of dragon fruit trees to form a long long strip of pink. Anh Hung said, normally, dragon fruit garden owners only use straw to cover and cover around the base of dragon fruits. The upper soil, between the beds, is often left empty by the garden owner, and weeds are overgrown. “Instead of letting weeds grow, absorbing the nutrients of the dragon fruit, I plant the flowers for ten hours. This flower is easy to grow, thrive without the need for care and fertilizer. Just planting for a while, they have grown into a carpet, covering the bare land so that weeds cannot grow ”, shared Mr. Hung. At the time of the flowering of the dragon fruit, together with the ten o’clock flower, the field of planting this fruit tree creates a very special “flower under the flower” scene. According to him, this is an effective, inexpensive and very safe way to combat weeds because there is no need to use chemical drugs to kill weeds. “In addition, planting flowers for ten hours on such soil beds is also for the purpose of making plants and dragon fruit clean, not clinging to soil or swollen. Because, when the flowers cover the bare land, the rain falls, the earth and mud do not shoot up, they stay on the body, flower, and dragon fruit ”, Mr. Hung added. Local people said that at any time of the year, almost the dragon fruit garden next to Hung’s house was also brilliant at ten o’clock. Even the garden is so beautiful that many people jokingly say it is a flower garden, not an orchard. Seen from the road surface, this field of dragon fruit stands out with the tiny yellow, purple and red dots from the ten o’clock flower. Hung said: “I plant flowers in the dragon fruit garden all year round, so there are always flowers to see. When the fruit is harvested, the flowers grow to cover the path. If I feel bad, I can use my hand to move the ten o’clock rope to pick dragon fruits ”. “If unfortunately not preserved, the flowers are damaged, then after a few days, they grow again, giving normal flowers. Due to the planting of flowers in the dragon fruit garden, there are ditches for irrigation and sufficient nutrition, so the flowers at ten o’clock grow very well, giving big flowers and beautiful colors, ”added Mr. Hung. The small trench used to water dragon fruits is also covered with ten o’clock yellow flowers, creating a beautiful landscape. Local people said that more and more garden owners planted this flower in the dragon fruit garden. This is both effective against weeds and creates a beautiful landscape at almost no cost. A local resident shared: “Every day, walking on this road has very beautiful moments. Early in the morning, when the ten o’clock flower is not yet blooming, the road looks like splitting the immense green patch of rice fields and dragon fruit gardens. Near noon, when the ten o’clock flower beds in the dragon fruit garden bloom, the pedestrians seem to be walking in the middle of a colorful flower garden. Currently, more and more people grow flowers for ten hours in dragon fruit gardens. Posts, photos, clips: Nguyen Son
