Thai Rice Farming

[jgarty38]

The Thai rice farmer in this district is now faced with a long lay-off period of 6 to 7 months before the next rice crop is sown. Lack of rain water the cause.

Not being a farmer myself, a towny from Merseyside, I need advice, is there any kind of crop a man could grow in a dry enviornmant that could earn him a decent return? Idealy one crop from December to about June or July, then the rice crop from July or August to November.

Any ideas guys?
