This year, various artwork has popped up in other rice-farming areas ofJapan , including
designs of deer dancers.
Smaller works of 'crop-art' can be seen in other rice-farming areas of Japan such as this image
of Doraemon and deer dancers
The farmers create the murals by planting little purple and yellow-leafed Kodaimai rice
along with their local green-leafed Tsugaru, a Roman variety, to create the coloured patterns
in the time between planting and harvesting in September.
The murals in Inakadate cover 15,000 square meters of paddy fields.

Closer to the image, the careful placement of the thousands of rice plants in the
paddy fields can be seen.
Rice-paddy art was started there in 1993 as a local revitalization project, an idea that
grew from meetings of the village committees. The different varieties of rice plants grow
alongside each other to create the masterpieces.
In the first nine years, the village office workers and local farmers grew a simple design
of Mount Iwaki every year.
But their ideas grew more complicated and attracted more attention.
In 2005, agreements between landowners allowed the creation of enormous rice paddy
art.
A year later, organizers used computers to precisely plot the planting of four differently colored
rice varieties that bring the images to life! TRULY A WORK OF ART
