Swampy lands are most suitable for growing
ExplanationVerified
Rice is water loving and does well on soils that hold a lot of water – clay, clay-loamy or loamy. So swampy land which is either clay-loamy or loamy soil depending on the location, and retains a lot of water is suitable for growing rice.
Rice is grown in water primarily to stave off pests, and keep weeds away from the rice rields
