Paddy field is a kind of cultivated land. It is the land distributed in cities, towns, villages and independent industrial and mining areas. It is built with ridges, which can often store water and be used to grow aquatic crops such as rice. According to water sources, paddy fields can be divided into irrigated paddy fields and paddy fields in Wang Tiantian. Irrigated land refers to the cultivated land with water source guarantee and irrigation facilities, which can be irrigated normally in general years and used for planting aquatic crops, including irrigated land and paddy-upland rotation land. Wang Tiantian refers to the cultivated land without irrigation facilities, which mainly relies on natural rainfall to grow aquatic crops such as rice, lotus root and mat grass, including paddy-upland rotation land without irrigation facilities. ?

Rice is not grown in paddy fields in the south, which is very common in rural areas now. What can be planted in the field besides rice?

1. Planting fruits, such as passion fruit, Shatangju, grapes, plums and pears, is not difficult to manage, and the income is much higher than that of rice.

2. Growing vegetables: If you are near the market or in a place with convenient transportation, you can grow vegetables and sell them in the market. This income is also very good. There are corresponding vegetables all year round, and the demand for vegetables is also great. You can usually sell them.

3. Planting trees: for example, fir trees, yew trees and pine trees are easy to manage, and selling them when they are mature is also a big income. The average cost of Chinese fir trees in the past ten years is 100 yuan, more than 10,000 yuan per mu, which is more than 1000 yuan a year. But this does not need management, which is equivalent to once and for all enjoyment. So all our young people have gone out to work. If you don't want to farm, plant fir trees in the field and go home to sell fir trees in a few years.

The main reason why rice is not planted in rice fields in southern China is that it is unprofitable to grow rice and it takes half a year to work hard. Even if one kilogram of rice is produced in one acre, one kilogram of rice is only about 1.5 yuan, and one acre is only 1000 yuan. Rural families have few acres of land. They grow rice without seeds, pesticides and fertilizers, and basically do not make money, only earn rations. Now farmers like to go out to work, and the money for one day's work is enough to buy rice for one month, which is also the reason why farmers are unwilling to farm. Growing rice in the countryside is thankless, unless you take care of your children at home, or you are too old to go out to work, you grow rice at home.
