Stevia Helps Rice Grow in Tsunami Ravaged Rice Paddies






The earthquake and tsunami in Japan earlier this year caused serious damage to farmland, destroying a number of rice paddies, amongst other things, by inundating them with seawater. However, a recent cultivation trial done by B&L Corporation in Ishinomaki in Miyagi has succeeded in producing 5,400 kg of rice per hectare in ruined paddy fields. Using an agricultural preparation called Farm-A, the system focused on introducing a concentrated, matured liquid made from Stevia to revive the paddies.
