While in Latya, Thailand, we took a walk through the rice fields. Just recently planted, the fields are flooded. In short order the rice will emerge.
In small towns like this the rice is cultivated the old fashioned way, sown by head and labor intensive. Rice production in Thailand represents a significant portion of the Thai economy and labor force. In 2017, the value of all Thai rice traded was 174.5 billion baht,(just over $5 billion US) about 12.9% of all farm production.Of the 40% of Thais who work in agriculture, 16 million of them are rice farmers by one estimate.
Thailand has a strong tradition of rice production. It has the fifth-largest amount of land under rice cultivation in the world and is the world's second largest exporter of rice.
