Japan Paddy Field Art


Each year, farmers in the town of Inakadate in Aomori prefecture create works of crop art by growing a little purple and yellow-leafed kodaimai rice along with their local green-leafed tsugaru-roman variety. This year’s creation — a pair of grassy reproductions of famous woodblock prints from Hokusai’s 36 Views of Mount Fuji — has begun to appear (below). It will be visible until the rice is harvested in September. From: Pink Tentacle

In the preparation of making picture below.

Below are pictures from the past years and other prefectures.





If you have no problem reading Japanese or you simply want to see more creation of rice field art in Japan, you can either visit Inakadate or Aomori.
