There are many methods that can be used to study the
cultivation process of rice, for example interviews with rice
farmers and rice markets surveys. Today, photos are a
necessary tool that can be used by everyone in most ar
-
eas of science research. Photos can be very helpful in
ethnobotanical studies (Vogl-Lukasser & Vogl 2005) by
continuing to produce good information long after the
field data collection process. Photos can assist in locating
plants for collection, species identification, documentation
of traditionally used tools, recording traditional events and
agricultural processes. Pictures can be used to describe
research methods and results in publications in order to
make them more attractive and help the audience to visu
alize the topic and attract interest.
