All Farmers in Nusa Penida ( My father too) are use the cows to plow up. They are not used a tractor machine for this. They don't know this machine, their life can be categorize so classical (Primitive). They often use their power to plow up and absolutely with the help of their cows. However, they enjoy their life even they far from technology.
Can you imagine this??? A farmer in Nusa Penida plow up their farm for one or more hectare just by using his cows. For, example, my lovely father. He flow up the farm one day full started in the morning to afternoon. In Nusa Penida, there are no wet unit areas. They just waiting the rainy season that started on September ( usually late until December). They plant cassava,pea, peanut and corn. Whew...so Natural I think...
How to command the cows??? if the cows should turn left/right, the farmers say 'Lok/belok( pronounce beelouk) for their cows and fulling the cow's rope bound. If turn left, the cow's rope bound in the left is fulled and turn right too with the same instruction. Incredible cooperation between cows and the farmer...Let's take a look of its natural !!!
