The rice field area in this village is 53,000 hectares and is located at the foot of Mount Batukaru, the second highest mountain in Bali after Mount Agung.

As mentioned above, the procedures for processing agricultural land in this village are different from rice fields in general. The rice fields here are in the form of terrasing due to geographical location and also for functional purposes.

With this form, irrigation becomes more effective because water can flow from one rice field to another. This irrigation system is also known as subak, which functions to regulate the distribution of irrigation flows that irrigate each plot of rice field area.

Subak is a term for a traditional irrigation system that has been around for generations and is still used by the Balinese people. Subak also attracts tourists, both domestic and foreign, Subak Jatiluwih is one of them.
