    Solution

    Kuttanad is renowned as "The Rice Bowl of Kerala" due to its extensive rice cultivation. Notably, it boasts the lowest altitude in India and is one of the few regions globally where farming occurs below sea level. Situated in the southern part of the Vembanad Lake—the longest lake in India and the largest in Kerala—Kuttanad's unique geography supports its prolific rice production.
