Rice cultivation in Nepal is a significant part of the country’s agriculture and economy.
Rice cultivation remains a cornerstone of Nepalese agriculture, supporting the livelihoods of millions of farmers and contributing to the country’s food security.
Rice harvesting is the process of collecting the mature rice crop from the field. It involves several steps:
1. **Preparation -This includes field preparation and ensuring that the rice grains have reached the appropriate maturity. The moisture content of the grains should be around 20-24%.
2. *Cutting The rice plants are cut and laid out to dry. This can be done manually using sickles or knives, or mechanically with harvesters.
3. *Threshing* This step separates the rice grains from the stalks. Traditional methods include beating the cut rice against a hard surface or using animals to tread on them. Modern methods involve using mechanical threshers.
4. *Cleaning The grains are cleaned to remove any dirt, chaff, or other impurities.
5. *Drying* The grains are dried to reduce the moisture content to a safe level (around 14%) for storage. This can be done naturally by spreading the grains under the sun or using mechanical dryers.
6. *Storing* The dried grains are stored in appropriate conditions to prevent spoilage and pest infestation.
