There are no wild animal attacks in this season because all the members fields together. Because of this people can save their times and they grow some vegetables in own home garden and other states.

Very important thing is there is no attacked by animals in Yala season. But very much difficult task for grow potatoes is finding water. There is a order using water called  "Muraya". Catch this also some what difficult because some time come someone's time at night. These period farmers familiar with night also. How ever they got more amount of money from it. Little amount of farmers get lost their agriculture although majority is very lucky. 

        People don't sell Rice because Rice harvest is not enough to sell. Reason of this is they cultivate rice only one season of year.

        Farmers start to grow Rice in January and they get Rice harvest in June. In the July they cultivate Potatoes or other vegetables. In October they get the harvest and majority of people grow another vegetable in October and get harvest before January.
