TRADITIONAL
The traditional way used more energy and effort. Firstly they must reap the rice plant by hand and then they put it together in one place. The tool they used to separate the seed from the plant we call "Banting".

After that, they grab a little bit of the rice plant and smash it to the board in the container (must used a lot of energy to separate them...hehe). Then, the seed are fall into the container.
To take out the rice from the seeds, another tool have to use. We called it "lesung kaki" or "lesung". This tool is to smash the seeds with the wood. The skin of seeds will separate from the rice after smashed by the wood. Then, they have to used wind to remove the skin from container and we call it "tampi". It also have a tool made by the woods called "kebuk" (i don't have the picture right now) to produced winds and it will remove the skin of the seeds. And that it, we have RICE and cook it to eat...hehehe.
