Best Answer

Where paddy (rice) is grown, it is unlikely that it would be used as a cover crop due to the expense of production. A cover crop is a type of plant grown to suppress weeds, help build, improve, and protect soil, and control diseases and pests. Cover crops are generally destroyed before they can reach maturity in preparation for planting the actual cash crop.
