Bhutan grows about 50% of its rice requirements. We see rice growing all over the hillsides in Punakha. But Bhutan's biggest export is electric power which it sells primarily to India.
We trek out along well worn paths between rice paddies. We stir the dust from the feet of old grandmothers and young children alike who've shared chores along these same paths for generations when rice season starts.
