An irony of a farmer in an agriculture country
It’s a mixed language entry i will write it on indonenglish. it’s about a ironic life of farmer in Indonesia. each time rice’s price drops, the farmer will suffer since it have to sold it’s harvests on cheap price, cheaper than the cost he has to disburse upon cultivating the rice. So he will suffer a financial loss.
But when rice’s price is ascending, the government will import rice from neighboring countries such vietnam and thailand (the govnment excusing on not to make general people suffer from the rise of rice’s price).
I think this condition is unfair… I don’t know how long will people will stay to be a farmer despite this unfair and also hard and difficult situations.
