However, paddy cultivation process consists of two methods that is cultivation in modern way and cultivation in traditional way. However, the process of paddy cultivation experienced a similar process but differ only in terms of technology and revenue. Therefore, paddy cultivation methods through several steps such as:
1) Plantation site selection

Direct seeding is done directly in the cultivation and in this way does not require a lot of manpower utilization. However, this way will not be effective without a good irrigation system. The machine that has been used for sown of seeds is a pump machine.
