paddy fields
Flooded rice farms
Paddy fields are flooded agricultural land used to grow rice.
The shallow standing water suppresses weeds and pests while the rice plants thrive.
Terraced paddy fields carved into hillsides are iconic landscapes across Asia: The paddy fields gleamed like mirrors in the morning sun.
