Scarecrows in the shape of crosses are placed in fields while Batang residents of the UKPWR (Ujungnegoro, Karanggeneng, Ponowareng, Wonokerso, and Roban) community hold a protest in their rice farm which will be used for the Batang coal-fired power plant project, Central Java.

The construction of the mega-plant has been delayed for almost four years due to persistent and strong opposition from villagers living near the site.
