Question

Ok, so we all know "paddyfield".

But they don't bend down and pick every individual grain, do they?!

So how does it end up as we know it? Do the plants have pods or something?

Been nagging me for ages, don't ask me why...

Mark,

Nice! Still doesn't really explain how we get the grains, but i had to laugh at the translation. I mean, what's a cannel? And best of all, a well alligated area. Blinding.

Yeah, I liked that too.

The grains are the 'seed' which have had the husks removed. It's all explained on the milling page.
