Human power which is relied on every harvest season becomes a big concern for farmers. Farmers in Ajibaho Village, Dusun VII Tanjung Marolan still utilize a simple equipment with human power to harvest rice. Some processes of harvest require longer time. It is started from cutting rice stalks, collecting rice stalks, and threshing rice by hitting it on a drum  to thresh the rice from the stalks.
