Rice/Bhat is our main staple diet in Nepal. There's hardly any day where we do not consume rice. But the interesting thing is we did not consume rice like this always. Our love for rice is very recent.
But we import most of our rice from India creating a massive trade deficit and also recent studies have shown that rice may not be the most healthy and nutritious crop. But how did we reach here?
How did this one crop that was just consumed by people from upper class, and some limited families became such a important part of our diet? This is the story of Rice.

अचम्म लाग्न सक्छ तर आलु, मकै, बन्दा, काउली, टमाटर पनि ब्रिटिश र पोर्चुगीजहरुले युरोप र अमेरिकाबाट भारतमा भित्र्याएप‍छि मात्र नेपालमा खान थालिएका हुन्।

As per My mother and her family they used to eat rice on the Dashain only , the main food was Dhindo at that time and Rice is considered as food of Rich.

Our Rice grown in south east asia heavily causes global warming. In most part of asia rice is grown in flooded fields, which create the ideal anaerobic conditions for bacteria to thrive on decomposing organic matter (mainly rice straw residue) and release methane. Poor absorption by the rice plant of nitrogen-based fertilizers, often overused by farmers, leads to nitrous oxide emissions. One pound of the gas warms the atmosphere some 300 times more than a pound of carbon does over a 100-year period. We need better scientific farming techniques and change in our nepalese diet patterns to avoid possible future diseases among our population.

I hadn't expected that tendency to eat rice over other cereals affects our economy and lifestyle significantly. Thanks for bringing many hidden knowledge and information about rice to our awareness❤

World Food Program (WFP) made Nepal heavily dependent on their merchandise i.e. Rice.

English subtitle should be added in your every content.. these videos are not only for information but you are pointing us the real problem and where we are lacking to improve our economy... these kind of research should be done by our government official to improve country but who cares here ?? Good job.. keep going

Much needed video! Have been tired of explaining to people why we should not prioritize eating rice only for various reasons mentioned above. Sending this to all 🙂
