The cañandú is the tool used by the Diola to work the fields of rice. It is similar to a paddle and at its end it has a kind of metal horseshoe. With it, it is easy to cleave the wet land and make furrows and plots where women will plant the rice afterwards. If while walking along a field of rice you pass an abandoned cañandú horseshoe, do not pick it up as a souvenir; somebody left it there to give his family strength.
