Introduction : Rice is the chief food of the people of Bangladesh. It is the seed of a plant called paddy. The plant has weak stem and paddy grows at its upper end. Rice is obtained by husking paddy. We boil rice and take it with curry.

When and how grown : Rice grows in hot countries. It grows in plenty in Bangladesh. It needs plain and moist land and heavy rainfall. Bangladesh is a plain land. She sees heavy rainfall in the rainy season. So rice grows here well.

Methods of cultivation : Rice can be cultivated in two ways. The farmer, at first, ploughs the land properly. The seed is then sown and the green plants grew up gradually. The paddy then grows with the plants. In the second method, seeds are sown in seed-beds. Then they are transplanted to the fields.

Kinds : There are many kinds of rice. But they are mainly of four kinds : Aus, Aman, IRRI and Boro. Aus grows very easily and in a short time. So it is called Aus (early). It is sown in Baishakh and repped in Bhadra. Aman is sown in Ashar and Sraban and reaped in Poush. Boro is sown in marshy lands where water stands till winter. It is sown in winter and reaped in spring. IRRI grows all the year round. Of the four kinds, Aman is the best in quality.
