It is relatively easy to grow even in challenging environments like terraced fields, but be careful not to over-fertilize, as this can cause the plants to grow too tall and become prone to lodging.

Red rice was originally used to make sekihan (red bean rice), but nowadays azuki beans or sasage beans are used, making it a very rare and valuable rice as it is no longer commonly found in the market.

It contains tannins, which have antioxidant properties that remove active oxygen.
These are abundant in the bran, so it is recommended to eat it as brown rice.

Furthermore, compared to white rice, it is rich in minerals, vitamins, and dietary fiber.
