Abstract
Rice in the four countries of Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam, also referred to as the Mainland Southeast Asia (MSEA) countries, has been cultivated in highlands and flatlands, in irrigated lands and rainfed lands, and in different seasons according to the monsoon rains and climate. For millions of farmers, rice farming is a way of life providing food subsistence, self-sufficiency, and security for their families, communities, and countries. This chapter examines agricultural land, paddy land, and harvested land, and rice production and consumption in the four countries.
