Of all the work farmers in Pasundan, more important i.e. planting rice. Since growing up into the rice, there are various pantrangan that must be followed. The reason being, that is due to the assumption that this world is the place to plant rice and rice it's there that inhabit them (ngageugeuh). If this is not respected, surely will make it difficult to manage the soil and rice. Versed in the procedures of planting rice is called puun guardian.

Ways, when it will begin planting rice in the unlikely event that people feel less expert, will then meet with a trustee puun first carrying incense. By guardian puun incense that will be dijampi-jampi, with the intention to resist the demons that inhabit the rice spirits, or asked permission at that moment. Its directly held a selamatan make tumpeng, the white pulp red pulp, with the intention of invoking the safety of that tomorrow morning, will begin to cultivate paddy for the season
The morning of the execution of the man who would go to the rice fields while bringing frankincense from guardian puun. Then the frankincense burned near a ditch/trench. After burning the incense, then hands greased with coconut oil (keletik oil), continued to hold a hoe. While holding the hoe while reciting the incantations (jangjawokan) asked permission to inhabit rice paddies. After that, the process to cultivate rice fields (to beg rice fields) can begin.
Develop or cultivate paddy fields using a hoe is called ngawalajar. IE to beg rice fields in the first stage. Stages of next called malik, mindi, ngangler, the last ngalelep, and ngacak. Usually, the farmers before the first make it till the land for the seedbed called pabinihan then the scattered grains of rice that are called with the stocking.
