The rice harvest ended this week. Rominger Rice had more than one combine harvester operating in the field near Knights Landing. In this video clip, Eric Willson operates the combine while Juan Carlos Vega drives the tractor pulling the bankout wagon, which is used to haul the rice out of the field. Ultimately, the rice gets hauled by trucks to the grain dryer prior to milling by Farmers Rice Cooperative.
