I keep instilling this important trait in Shashu to never waste food. In this episode, I tell him how a farmer grows rice. Rice, to grow needs, proper sunlight, excess, infact, a puddle of water throughout its growing stage and the proper type of soil. The farmers, prepare the soil first, followed by filling the land with required amount of water. Next sowing the rice seeds, and maintaining the proper environment by weeding out the unnecessary plants. After about 3 to 4 months, the rice crop is fully grown and mature. Once the time arrives for harvest, the excess water is drained out from the land and let to dry out, leaving the crop to dry and crisp. The crop is finally harvested and beaten to separate the paddy from the stalk. Once separated, the paddy is again processed to remove the husk from the rice. This rice is later polished and cleaned to be stored in jute bags. these bags are the sent out for distribution. After undergoing these many steps, and not one step is simple, do we get rice on our table. When the farmers ensure that we get all the rice he grows with so much effort,why not we teach our children to give the same respect to food and not waste a single grain of rice? Making kids understand the importance and value of food needs to be done right from the time they start helping themselves with eating. Just like any other social trait, respecting food, eating just the required amount of food and avoiding excess food on the plate resulting in waste should be avoided. #foodwaste #foodwasted #foodwastebattle #foodwastemanagement #foodwastenot #foodwastepledge #foodwastesucks #foodwastewarriorsinposition
