because little harvesting takes place during the monsoons. many showed us live off of fishing during the rainy season. but in recent years, the highly sought after catch has been dwindling. the, there are many different kinds of fish and practiced showed us can even catch them with their bare hands. the look how big it is, the the

2:34 pm
lucky and yamuna. we'll give him back the land and took the this is what it looks like before the flooded waters arrive. the green grass land is food for cattle. but in order to cultivate the land, the grass has to disappear. usually the flood takes care of that. when it doesn't, the farmers have to destroy the grass with chemicals in order to be able to plant the, the jude is a particularly hardy cross, but it can only be grown in the rainy season. the, there's a reason it's called the golden thread of bangladesh. it thrives even when flooded

2:39 pm
unusually late in early september, the title floods have finally come. normally the showed us expect 3 title waves between june and the end of august. but this time, the rising water is come only wants. here to climate change is evident the within a few days. the flooded waters reach dangerous levels. as the river takes its toll, no one's thinking about the fertile settlement. it breaks. even though the floods will ensure to a mountable harvest for the child us in the coming dry season,
2:40 pm
the by means you're doing the volume. and water has been standing here in the field for 3 days. 7 days ago it started to rise. first the river was swollen and then in the last 3 days the water ended from here. if the water just continues to rise folder rice will be lost on what is a good. i figured it was the, i don't know if i'm lucky enough to save this rice crop. it's growing so beautiful in the bottle. here at the finish of the me see, find the water. he's close to l ya. now my move when the children play here, they could fall into a hole. it's dangerous. i want to take

2:42 pm
as evidenced in this footage from the past quarter century, the child us have had to develop extraordinary survival skills to adapt to the flood floods which the child us they are increasingly worse due only in part to nature. a bridge was built here 25 years ago. forcing the once 14 kilometer wide river and to a narrower channel, which i would say that until the bridge was built, the floods were not as dramatic as they are today. the, the, the,
2:43 pm
this time there was only one title, waive in the monsoon season. it left behind huge amounts of fertile soil that had to be till the dry season has long since begun. now, 5 months later, it's harvest time, the the but uh she uh, jo mode. it goes to a, to me. uh but uh she uh, not to be long done that the hard. no, but sheila, i'm not gonna gone all monday had the bus to

it's not just the rice that grows here. throughout the dry season, the child as are busy harvesting one field after another at ground knots, mays, sweet potatoes, mustard, and corey. and are keep that he busy the agent number to bobby, that's literally what i'm gonna do and actually think there is a river here. all these floods and like a blessing for us, i'm one of the because the more often to fly to comes, the better it is for our farm. and i want the more we can grow the tv book, the lucky mode. this is just your router. when the monsoons come was that when it's all about this is l farmland, that these fields only lie on plants at the 2 or 3 mountains on over the just where they are flooded up. i mean, peggy, only during this time can we not talk today is the ticket then when everything is verbal when it but it, that's why i think we live in the river, but it doesn't seem like that. but in november i moved the odyssey. i'm on the
2:48 pm
portuguese, i'm a glenda soil here has a big advantage. we don't necessarily always need the plants. sometimes you just say send for the for example here, the soil into the see how the peanuts a thriving problem. but you can see how drive the soil is powerful in the business, and that the supervisor on the team's neighbor showed us i'm on, has been lucky. but as a port island has reappeared from the river, he owns a plot of land on it. the soil is nice and high and it seems to be protected from the erosion that cost him hudson fields during the last month soon. now he's building the foundations for his new home. here. it will need to be high enough to stay afloat during the next flood as well as lab work,
2:49 pm
taking the important box. now we are moving from the east and to the west. inside solve the problems that we can actually make a good living from finding a tank recall chance. but this erosion is the pro body body that will just say kind of model by example. this house that i have to rebuild here. it will cost me almost a $1000.00 euros altogether. i could have saved this money, but i'm forced to spend it a little promo. that's the problem for us. the child really have to do it every 3 or 4 years. the river eats away my property body, and i cannot keep my savings at the bottom in terms of the packing of the the
2:50 pm
even though there are no trees here yet to fortify the island. the new plot looks promising. the river is a safe distance away. i should have some on plan to move ahead of time and all the neighbors are pitching in the the things are looking good for showed us a mom at the moment. but no one knows when juno will get hungry again and start knowing on the shore line. the
2:51 pm

2:53 pm
the, my father was a capital trader as a child who used to take me with him and i watched him alone, how the business wants to have. i didn't finish school, so i have to on my money as a salesman. i managed a little bit until the 7th grade i. my parents married me off so i couldn't continue those. it's a lot of people that are so the we are poor child on the with the know do the girls get married off quite early, but if and when you're married, you can't go to the 1st because then you have to work at home. but that's a little i would have had a good chance to finish school because my parents made an effort,
2:54 pm
but i blew i to the room. so probably one of those are the states like you are blind, even though your eyes are healthy. the people who have education or they can see properly, they can understand everything and do a lot of things with their lives. everything is much easier for the that and those who have no education at all. they are like blind people with healthy eyes. that's how it is. there are even people who can't write their own name or the pay i can home educate my children up to great stuff. i never know better just because of of the i don't think another bundle. no, no, no, no, no, that's enough. ready or wait until next time. here, i want to take one more minute that's enough. and i want another one. you wouldn't make it. i well the,
2:55 pm
the dry season has brought a good harvest and some security. the rice dogs are a precious commodity because they feed the most important thing of all the animals . they have to be stored outside so that the floods won't reach them. papa, look, look what i have here. my goodness, so much. where do i put it? bring it here, place for a 6 year old of chic life on the child is still an adventure. he doesn't know what's in store for the family. the monsoon season. with it, a time of uncertainty will begin again the, even though the family knows how to deal with the rhythm of nature, there is no secure foundation for an easy life. aliyah knows that
2:56 pm
the move you have to cross the river here every time to bring in the harvest. that's going to be hot again. gus that you did you grow crops then last you know, even further away. i think that was very exhausting. yeah. we're down to now we're going to keep open one. i don't know yet how i'll make it this year. are you coming home? is that? no, i don't want to. why not do what i mean? okay. did you foster volk? why didn't you get some of the, the, the of them is that the more lower, you know, the women who work in the fields carry a huge stacks of pain on the, when the used to it. so i've never done that was up in the beginning and 5, but why shouldn't you you can try it. sometimes they look you any
2:57 pm
good at home? no, i don't want to, as i'm supposed to do everything myself or what, who else is gonna have to learn? when do i go to? i was hoping that's at some point and we would live on the main them so that the children could go to school. you could do, you have assets there on the mainland, a fallacy. i thought, well, you don't want to give up your fields here. you also create your job in the city just to plow on the charles all the time, but that's not enough for allowing it a negative way. i guess you want me to toilet line in town and send you money so you can have a good life to sort of then keep digging into sam's. you don't need to go up, but i tell that to your sons because they should make money on the mainland and due to life the. i'll stay here on the job. many child us things like that he, they may never give up this land, but to constance, remain the child shifting nature and the child us desire for security,
