Abstract
Biodiversity is one of the most important issues discussed worldwide, and each country has various policy measures to preserve its diversity. Efforts to preserve and improve our ecosystems have been an important issue in the agricultural sector. Especially, rice paddies are recognized in the scientific community as an important wetland system globally by the Ramsar convention. Rice paddies have formed a typical agricultural landscape for centuries in many areas including Asia.
