Punjab Sees Rise in Water-Saving Rice Farming

Farmers in Punjab are trying a new way to grow rice called direct seeding.

Instead of the usual method, they plant the seeds directly into the ground, which saves water.

The government is helping by giving money to farmers who try this method.

This year, more farmers are using this new way, and the government hopes even more will join in.

The government also has campaigns and training programs to teach farmers about the benefits of this farming technique.

This effort is part of a bigger plan to use water wisely.
