I’d love to talk about rice, the most important agricultural plant in my country.
Ever since I was in my early elementary years, the rice plant has appeared in almost every subject, from literature to natural science to geography. And even in real life, the rice plant can be spotted all across the countryside around Vietnam.
It never ceases to amaze me how such a simple plant could support a whole nation’s economy. Up to this day, millions of Vietnamese families are still dependent on the cultivation of rice to make ends meet. And the fact that Vietnam has become one of the world’s leading rice exporters is more solid proof of the relevance of this plant in my country. Besides this, rice has been an indispensable part of the main meal of most families for centuries and children practice the habit of eating rice from a very young age, as the older generation, cannot go a day without rice in some form or another.
Over thousands of years, the rice plant has played a really important role in Vietnamese culture, and many traditions and ceremonies originate from the farmer’s hopes for an abundant crop, many of these traditions are considered important established customs to foreign visitors. I think that the rice plant has become one of the greatest symbols of the Vietnamese spirit and deserves large appreciation from all generations
