RICE FIELDS OF JAPAN … REALLY AMAZING
Looks ordinary enough...... But watch as the rice grows
The designs have been cleverly PLANTED!
Farmers creating the huge displays use no ink or dye.
Instead, different colour rice plants
have been precisely and strategically arranged
and grown in the paddy fields
The designs have been cleverly PLANTED!

The farmers create the murals
by planting little purple and yellow-leafed Kodaimai rice
along with their local green-leafed Tsugaru, a Roman variety,
to create the coloured patterns
in the time between planting and harvesting in September.
The murals in Inakadate cover 15,000 square meters of paddy fields
From ground level,
the designs are invisible,
and viewers have to climb the mock castle tower of the village office
to get a glimpse of the work
Rice-paddy art was started there in 1993
as a local revitalization project,
an idea that grew from meetings of the village committees.
The different varieties of rice plants
grow alongside each other to create the masterpieces.
In the first nine years,
the village office workers and local farmers
grew a simple design of Mount Iwaki every year.
But their ideas grew more complicated and attracted more attention.
In 2005,
agreements between landowners
allowed the creation of enormous rice paddy art.
A year later,
organizers used computers
to precisely plot the planting of four differently colored rice varieties
that bring the images to life!
TRULY A WORK OF ART!!
