Originally clicked and uploaded by - Pratosh Dwivedi - 24th Feb'08This is the season of paddy sowing in Kerala. Rice being a staple food of the state, you can see it being grown in vast amounts all over the inner parts of Kerala. This is the apt time for planting the paddy seedlings since monsoons would be hitting the state anytime in the next 2-3 months.
We were cutting our way through the lush green city if "wayanad" in Kerala, when we came across these ladies sowing paddy in one of the nearby fields.
Here are some more shots worth seeing

Hey!
Your collection of exclusive pictures is growing real fast and it's good to see that you do post regularly. The pictures are great and I wish that your blog grows unexceptionably.
Few tips if you would like to consider.
1) Watermark your images.
2) Monetize your website - Try Adsense, Axill.in etc.
3) Concentrate on your SEO for the blog, like proper titles etc, this will help you bring many visitors from Search Engines.
Rest looks good :)
Best Regards,
Admin.
FYI... Paddy sowing happens earlier in the year...this is the time when farmers who follow the transplantation method of agriculture transplant the paddy seedlings into the field. It is very evident in your picture itself, the lady has the bundles of seedlings in front of her, not a basket of seeds, which would be used for sowing.
