This is a common sight in many areas of Kerala where paddy farming and duck-rearing go hand in hand. Once the paddy cropping season is over, just ahead of the southwestern monsoon season, farmers take the ducks in hordes to rainwater flooded farm fields to feed. After the grains have been harvested, insects, slugs and fish in the fields are the ducks' primary food sources.
