People eat rice all over the world
Rice is believed to have been first grown in China or possibly somewhere else in eastern Asia around 10,000 years ago. The earliest evidence of rice farming comes from a 7,000-year-old site near the lower Yangtze River village of Hemudu in Zhejiang province in China.
Rice is a kind of food which requires much labor. In developed countries, the planting and harvesting is done (most) with machines., in much of the world, these things are still largely done by hand. It takes one farmer 1,000 to 2,000 working hours (raise) a rice crop on 2.5 acres of land. The fact that rice (need) so much labor means (keep) a lot of the population on the land.
Rice is also a crop need of lots of water. The wet rice (grow) in most of Asia needs hot weather after a period of rain and conditions provided by the Asian (rain) seasons affect many places rice is grown.
Rice straws (稻杆) (leave)in the fields add nutrients (营养物) to the soil after rice is harvested. For the next crop, rice farmers can often enjoy a good harvest by adding little or no fertilizer (肥料).
