minus-squareDr. Moose@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·10 天前If anyone could pull this off it’s probably Japan but rice is notorious for failing here. During previous rice harvest shortage many countries opened up their rice reserves just for nobody wanting it so theres a lot of work to do here still.
