Paddy fields of Kerala India a must visit place on Earth


Paddy and Rice the staple food of South Indians and especially Keralites are grown on vast fields across the state. The Paddy is sown by ladies standing in a row and singing songs... and then harvested later to produce pure white rice grains. The process of preparing the fields with Ox and special tillers carried by them, men ploughing the fields with bullocks and then sowing of paddy, irrigating the fields, harvesting the paddy with sickles and then separating the grains manually by crushing it with feet or thrashing on rocks by hand is a great job to witness.
