5 Summary
Longji Rice Terraces change colors with the seasons: silver in spring, blue in summer, golden in autumn, and frosty white in winter. They were built by the local Zhuang and Miao ethnic groups for hundreds of years. Since there are many large, flat areas in the region, they built terraces on the mountains to have more areas to grow rice. The terraces are cleverly designed, and can wash away the shallow soil. There are hundreds of waterways, along which rainwater moves down the mountains and into the terraces. Today, local people use modern methods to maintain the terraces, and they attract lots of visitors from all over the country.

The Traditional Rice-Fish-Duck Farming System
The Traditional Rice-Fish-Duck Farming System in Zhejiang Province, China, has a rich history rooted in sustainable agriculture. It emerged to address pest control and fertility (肥沃) needs. It harmoniously combines rice growing, fish farming, and duck raising. Rice paddies (稻田) provide a habitat for fish, which control pests and improve water quality, while ducks contribute to pest control and nutrient recycling. This system enhances biodiversity, reduces the need for chemical inputs, and promotes natural ecosystem balance. It is an excellent example of a traditional farming method that supports sustainable agriculture and preserves the cultural heritage of the region.
