    Some history....
    The
    Societe Agricole Du Song-Ray was a French Colonial Agricultural enterprise headquartered in Saigon formed to cultivate, harvest and export a rich diversity of native products.
    Rice was the most important crop. It was grown principally in the Red and Mekong river deltas. Other major food crops were sugarcane, cassava (manioc), corn (maize), sweet potatoes, and nuts. Agriculture is highly labor-intensive in Vietnam, and much plowing was done by water buffalo.There were many plantations of banana, coconut, and citrus trees, most of them found in the Mekong delta and the southern terrace regions. Coffee and tea were grown in the central highlands. The production of rubber would be exploited by the occupying Japanese to fuel their military operations during WW2. Fields, groves, and kitchen gardens throughout Vietnam included a wide variety of fruit trees (banana, orange, mango, jackfruit, and coconut) and vegetables. Kapok trees are still found in many villages, and the Vietnamese cultivate areca palms and betel peppers for their nuts and leaves and mulberry bushes to feed silkworms. A culture that was intertwined with nature!
    This diversity of natural resources is reflected in the bond's beautiful multi-color engraving that includes fish, fruit bulbs and oriental flowers, all under the gaze of a fierce dragon. ALL 24 ORIGINAL COUPONS are present which makes for a perfectly symmetrical design ideal for framing.
    If you pass up this deal you probably have no interest in the history and culture of Southeast Asia, oriental art or financial history ... or in making a handsome profit!
