Farmers hold up International Rescue Committee coupons entitling them to 100 kilos (220 pounds) of fertilizer and 50 of rice seed. The sack of seed is enough to plant an acre of rice. The smiles on the farmers' faces underscore how important the seed is to them, many of whom lost their entire crop in the floods of 2010.
