Paddy Season In Kashmir
Gh. Ahmad, 78, is working in his paddy field on the outskirts of Sopore, District Baramulla, Jammu and Kashmir, India, on June 10, 2024. Lush green paddy fields, which provide food for the people, are rapidly disappearing and being replaced by unabated and haphazard concrete construction in Kashmir. In just over a decade, Kashmir has lost an alarming 33,309 hectares of paddy fields to conversion, official data reveals. In 2012, Kashmir is boasting approximately 1,62,309 hectares of land dedicated to paddy cultivation. (Photo by Nasir Kachroo/NurPhoto)
