They're called rice paddys.
In Asia, Rice grows in paddies. These are flooded fields.
They are called wet-rice farming.
Rice grows under water in Asia. Rice farmers typically grow their crops in water because water drowns out competing plants and reduces the need for chemicals.
Climate/ Weather
In lowland areas, the fields are first flooded and then rice seed is planted. Drainage ditches are nearby to prevent too much water getting at the rice plants. These ditches can be dammed or opened as needed.
the monsoons bring so much rain that * fields of rice are flooded, * drains can't cope and streets remain flooded for days * houses are swept away by flooding or landslides * streets are filled with rubbish as services can't work properly * methods of transport are destroyed or can't work the landscape is flooded but when the waters have drained away, the fields are lush and green. the monsoons bring so much rain that * fields of rice are flooded, * drains can't cope and streets remain flooded for days * houses are swept away by flooding or landslides * streets are filled with rubbish as services can't work properly * methods of transport are destroyed or can't work the landscape is flooded but when the waters have drained away, the fields are lush and green.
Many Southeast Asian farmers, like farmers elsewhere in Asia, use traditional agricultural methods. They plant by hand and harvest with sickles and other hand tools. Many use water buffaloes to pull large rakelike tools that plow the paddies (rice fields). However, the use of modern farm machines, high-yielding seeds, and chemical fertilizers and pesticides is becoming more common.Hope this helps!
south Asia is one of them

Found in grasslands, prairies, meadows, fields, pastures, and roadsides of Europe, Asia, and North America.
There are many ways in which farmers grow crops in Central Asia. These farmers could use terrace farming for example.
If they flood they could damage the crops because farmers their plant crops close to the rivers so they get the water
