- SilasX 7y agoWhat about rice paddies?
- war1025 7y agoMy understanding is that for commercial rice production, the paddies are drained both for planting and before harvest. I may be wrong on that. Either way, the machinery used for planting corn and soybeans is developed for use on relatively dry ground. And the plants themselves cannot survive submersion for long periods of time.
