Thailand, a least developed country in Southeast Asia, is one of the many places that houses wet-rice farming. Wet-rice farming is a form of subsistence agriculture in which farmers must expend a large amount of effort to produce the maximum feasible yield from a parcel of land. Rice is cultivated in flooded fields. The wet-rice process includes drowning the rice in hot water for an extended amount of time. The rice is stained yellow by the water, giving it a distinct flavor and taste. Because wet-rice farming is a subsistence form of agriculture, marketing and advertising is not needed. Because of the lack of advertising in this branch of farming, I am not super interested in practicing it.
Strengths: wet-rice can be grown in a variety of environmental conditions, there are a variety of different effective wet-rice farming techniques
Challenges: high rain fall is necessary, labor intensive
