Life of Irrawaddy rice farmers

Torrential rain during the first week of August, 2014 inundated farms in the Irrawaddy Division, the rice bowl of Burma.
Farmers were unable to plant rice in time as tidal water did not subside - an abnormal situation which made it difficult for farmers to grow rice.
