Agricultural Seasons Season Kharif Rabi Zaid Sowing Jun- Jul Oct - Dec Aug – Sep (ZKC) Feb – Mar (ZRC) Harvesting Sep - Oct Mar - Apr Dec – Jan Apr - May Crops Rice Wheat Millets, vegetables

Rice cultivation Rainfall: 150cm to 300 cm Temperature: 16⁰ C to 32⁰ C Soil: Alluvial – deep, fertile, clayey and loamy

Upland rice Lowland rice

Steps Sowing Transplanting Processing Harvesting

Seeds are scattered by hand – labour saving Seeds are dropped in the furrows Seeds are dropped in a straight line at regular intervals in furrows

Traditional Method

Japanese Method

Harvesting Threshing Winnowing Milling By hand – using a sickle Crop allowed to dry in the field for 3-4 days Threshing Bullocks to separate grains from the chaff Sheaves are beaten against the bars Winnowing Husk is removed from the grain Milling Polishing – graded – stored in sacks Par boiling the grain to remove the outer husk
