In California was attempted a first paddy-field in 1860 and, from this region, the rice was exported to Australia.
In all the countries of Central and South America, the cultivation of rice is therefore relatively recent.

The historics situate the first cultivation of rice about 7.000 years ago, in a zone situated in the north of India and south of China. Actually we have the proof that humans ate  rice about 10.000 years ago. Only in the 6 century a.c., the diffusion of the rice started in Persia, and Greece. Later, it spread in the roman empire, in the Middle East and the north of Africa.

First of all, the land need to be till. The rice require a flat space to grow up well. Later, the farmer divide the land in small pieces, to work with less effort. When the field is till, there are two different ways for the farming. The first way is seed the plants of rice in the dry land, and use the rainwater as the nourishment of the plant. This way is the more economic, but it doesn't guarantee an efficent production. The second way is more expensive and laborious, but it guarantee a great production. First of all, the small pieces of lands are filled with water. Later, the seeds of rice are allocated in all the field. When the rice is maturated, the farmer harvest the plants, and only after a quality check, they are ready for the production.]]> 2017-12-11 17:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/gmartinelli02/qfhddf0o6bwb/wish/215116831 Production of the rice ettore_c02 https://padlet.com/gmartinelli02/qfhddf0o6bwb/wish/215131921 After the harvest of the grains of the rice, there are some very important phases to do before the sale. In fact, the rice, after the harvest, it's not white, it has a black peel and some impurity that needs to be removed. The first phase is the desiccation, to make the rice dry. The second phase is removing the black peel from the rice. The third phase is selecting and eliminating the grains that they're not ripe. In fact, after this phase the rice is edible, and it's called brown rice. However, the rice can be worked again with a four phase, where the rice is whitened, and assume the typical white color. After that, the rice and the brown rice are ready to be sold.]]> 2017-12-11 17:41:11 UTC https://padlet.com/gmartinelli02/qfhddf0o6bwb/wish/215131921 Rice in Europe lobna_nachti_130 https://padlet.com/gmartinelli02/qfhddf0o6bwb/wish/215136249 Rice was being imported from Egypt, and perhaps west Asia.
