Very cool! I wonder how they do it.

Different strains of rice, I suppose

That takes dedication to make that, is amazing! *claps*

The only thing anyone can say when they see this is...



"Those Japanese..."

Interesting.

I have never heard of a rice strain that is pitch black to the leaves, unless if it was grown in a special space with dyed nutrients or something.

So far, we don't have enough info about this in English.

Wow. o_o

That's very impressive!

I find myself saying it on a daily basis :D
Thi is seriously awesome though, I like the Doraemon one!

HAHA. That Doraemon one is probably my favorite also.

But, I found this website that shows exactly how they are made, if anyone is interested. Seems to me that they actually plant them like that, then simply let them grow.

Rice Field Art In Japan

There are planted 5 varieties of rice crops at the field of Inakadate village.

Tsugaru roman (common type)
Ou-tou(ancient yellow type)
Si-tou(ancient purple type)
Beni-zome, Beni-miyako(ancient red-type)

Finally. More info. Thank you.

But are they all Japonica type?

holy crap!!! (opps sorry)

wow!
 

wow! thats all... i think it only in japan???

Probably.
Only Beni-zome may be Mochi rice.
These type of rice except Tsugatu-roman are so special that common Japanese have not eaten or even looked at.

woooooooooow kawaii and sogoiiiiiiiiiiii

how can they do all:eek: that it's magical and very nice

it must be different sorts of rice I mean the colours and so on

domo for the nice topic

YAY!!! Now I have loads of new wallpaper for my PC!!!!

very nice... great sharing..very very beatyfull

This is really something incredible, the level of dedication and patience to do this is just amazing.

That is better than crop circles. I've seen that done with flowers, but I like the earthly colors more.

amazing!

im guessing no one is allowed to walk on it ??.?

They definitely have a way with their hands!

Anyone might be able to walk through paths among each fields.
No one cannot enter the fields except farmers and rice fields are filled with water.

Autumn season has come and rice crops are changing their color to yellow.
