More than half of the world's people depend on rice as a food grain. Rice is also the main food grain of Bangladesh. Rice contains starch, protein, vitamins and minerals.
But unknowingly due to over-smoothing of rice grains, its nutritional value is declining. In fact, just as rice mill owners are ruining the nutritional value of rice by smoothing it out in the hope of making more profit, various diseases and pests of paddy have recently created frustration among farmers in rice production.

Due to lack of money, poor farmers cultivate the land with the help of skeletal cows and shaky wooden plows. Farmers are eagerly waiting for the desired crop to be harvested in the seedbed by investing labor and capital from sowing seeds to flowering.
How many dreams, how many hopes are born in the mind of the farmer with the arrival of flowers in the paddy field. Although the planting of high yielding varieties of boro paddy is relatively high across the country this year, when the roots and twigs of the rice plant are full, the flowers are full of seeds and the heads are tilted downwards, a disease suddenly appears in the paddy field, causing great panic among Sreepur farmers. .

Initially, one or two sheaves of paddy turn white, but very quickly it spreads to all cultivable lands. Seen from a distance, it seems that the paddy is ripe; But there is not a single grain in a sheaf. Such a scene has been seen in Sreepur of Gazipur. A sharecropper from Singardighi village is seen sighing, looking at the grainless sheaves with torn eyes next to the suddenly affected boro paddy field. post source here
