This is what goes on in South Louisiana during March and April to prepare the fields for rice planting.

Chisel is run over the old soybean ground.

Sometimes you gotta repair a washed out levie.

Then ditches are made to help the water flow evenly.

Down the road, another farmer is using a slightly different method.  He\\\'s running the buffalo over the ground to smash the stubble and grass and turn over some mud.

Later he comes with the waterlevelers.
