Sakon Nakhon Rice field ablaze
The blaze was visible for miles.A firetruck was driving around the area in an apparent attempt to find an access road.
When the truck arrived at the scene there was little they could do to douse the blaze as they did not have a tanker truck.
All firefighters could do is contain the fire within the field.
Burning trees and wooden shacks intensified the flames.
