Description:

Explore rice paddy fields by bike for a fascinating insight into the workings of farming communities in Yogyakarta's rural areas. By witnessing rice cultivation, soybean production, and examples of tools used throughout the ages, you can understand more about the agricultural communities on Java.

South of the main city, nestled in charming natural surroundings, is the village of Candran Kebon Agung, where you pick up your bike and pedal through the village landscapes. Deep in the rice paddies, meet local farmers who provide information about how this staple crop is cultivated and harvested in the lush environment.

At a nearby farming museum, you can see examples of tools used to work the land. There are examples of ancient implements spanning hundreds of years—all the way through to modern incarnations used today. Finally, observe how the soybean—a popular ingredient in Indonesian cuisine—is processed in a neighboring factory, before you cycle back to the village center and return to the city.
