Race against rice blast
For rice farmers, the disease called ‘rice blast’ is one of the biggest threats. The disease is caused by a fungus, which is carried in the seed of the plant.

In a serious case, a whole crop can be lost and the farmer is left with what looks like a field of burned plants.

But with less space to move in, they are not as free to graze their livestock. And to make the problem worse, at certain times of the year, there are longer dry seasons and less rain.
