Kuttanad is a stretch of low-lying land of about
110,000 ha along the banks of Vembanad Lake and
Pamba River tributaries. It encompasses vast stretch
of backwaters, bordering human settlements,
mangrove forests and rice fields. Four major rivers
such as, Pamba, Meenachil, Achankovil and Manimala
discharge into this region. It has the distinction of being
one of the few areas in the world, where paddy farming
is carried out below the sea level. The area is quite
famous for its fishery for clams, pearlspot (Etroplus
suratensis), snakehead (Channa spp.) and freshwater
prawns (Macrobrachium spp.).
