Follow along as we listen to a news story about a farmer in the town of Iinan in Shimane Prefecture who grows rice without the use of chemicals, thanks to the help of aigamo ducklings that eat weeds and pesky insects. In the second half of the program, we consider rice as a staple food for Japanese people. We learn about different varieties and go over the basics of how to cook rice.
