In this example of rice fish culture in China PR, the water level of the paddy has been lowered to encourage the final ripening of the rice and also to congregate the aquatic organisms in the deeper areas. Notice the nets to separate destructive species like crayfish or crabs from the rice before harvest. Note also the plot of lotus culture in the background. ©FAO/Matthias Halwart. Editorial use only.
