Answer:

do me a favour just Mark me brailinist

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the cultural norm, 15 Ashadh is "considered as the auspicious day to start rice planting for the year".[5] The date falls during the monsoon season, an optimal time for rice planting.[6] On 14 December 2004, the Nepal Government officially declared Ashadh 15 as National Paddy Day.[5] The celebration takes place under the theme of "Increase rice production for self-sufficiency and prosperity".[7]

The Provincial Assembly of Karnali Province has declared Ashadh 15 to be a public holiday in Karnali Province except for the Jumla District; paddy planting starts on 25 March in Jumla.[8]

Rice contributes to about 7 percent of Nepal's GDP.[9] In 2018, it was estimated that Nepal imports about Rs 25 billion worth of rice.[10]
