This season in Japan (June-July) is called 'tsuyu', the rainy season, and it's the equivalent of the monsoon in mainland Asia.

Just before it starts, thousands of empty fields are filled with water and smalls rice stems are planted, usually with the help of machines. This rice fields are everywhere in Nara region, occupying almost every unused bit of land.
