UNESCO-listed rice-fish-duck ecosystem benefits SW China’s Guizhou

GUIYANG, China, Congjiang County, southwest China’s Guizhou Province, home to many ethnic groups, inherits an ancient and charming traditional Chinese agriculture — vast expanses of mountain slopes carved into rice paddies where rice, fish and ducks flourish in co-existence.

The agricultural feat of growing one season of rice, keeping a batch of fish and raising a batch of ducks in the same rice paddy has been inherited for thousands of years in Congjiang.
