Rice is the
staple food in Bangladesh. Almost two-third people of the whole world live on
rice. We get rice from paddy. Rice grows well in host and moist climate. It is
grown mainly in Bangladesh, India, China, Pakistan, Burma, Indonesia, Japan,
Canada, the USA. Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia. There are mainly four kinds of
rice. They are Aus, Aman, Boro and Irri. Aus is sown in Baishakh and harvested
in Sravan. Aman is sown in Asar ans Sravan and reaped in Agrahayan and Pous. Boro
is sown in pous and harvested in Chaittra. Irri is grown through the year. We
can prepare different types of food from rice. We eat boiled rice, which is
called Bhat. Chira, muri, khai, hotchpotch, polau, biriani etc are made from
