Deepwater Rice - the Narshingdhi site - Dhaka District, Bangladesh

Situated in the Meghna floodplain, just north of the town of Narshindgdi, this site had severe stem borer damage pre-harvest in 1981. As with other Meghna floodplain sites, the flood water does not carry any great quantity of silt.
