Rice is originally a wild species, its ancestors being a wild plant belonging to the genus Oryza on the Gondwana supercontinent about 130 million years ago. Due to the continental drift process, this species drifted to various regions, and the evolutionary process has given rise to many distinct rice varieties. The most common rice in Vietnam is the wet rice species, originating from Southeast Asia. About 10,000 years ago, it was domesticated and cultivated by the people here, becoming the primary food source for many countries around the world.

Vietnamese wet rice belongs to the Asian rice species. To this day, the origin of this type of rice remains a major question for researchers. The first civilizations of wet rice cultivation in human history, such as India and China, are believed to be the birthplaces of Vietnamese wet rice.

Wet rice is a type of plant that thrives in freshwater environments with abundant alluvial deposits, primarily distributed in the Red River Delta and the Mekong Delta. Rice plants have a diameter of 2 - 3cm and stand 60 - 80cm tall. The rice plant is divided into three main parts: the root system, the stem, and the tip. The root system serves as the organ for absorbing nutrients and water from the soil, while the stem functions in transportation and metabolic exchange to support the growth of the rice plant.
