Mangali Figure  249	Kakammak buuk pagoyni.
Literal Translation	Our rice stalks are like hair.
Meaning of Figure	Our rice crop has short small stalks and small grains – a poor crop.
Usage	It takes a long time to harvest a crop like this because you have to reap many stalks before you tie up a bundle because the stems are so tiny. You will be unhappy if you see that your rice crop is like this. It may have been caused by drought or by the rice seedlings being planted too closely together.
