The rice here grows in a strange way, enclosed within a plant that resembles a bean pod. For convenience, Su Tang has named it Rice Pod.
Before leaving, she specifically instructed the cubs, who spent their days frolicking in the valley, to harvest all the Rice Pods within the valley; the Collection Team would take care of gathering the ones outside the valley.
Rice Pods grow on a plant similar to a vine, but it's unclear whether the vine is a perennial or if it will die after a designated season.
Therefore, Su Tang did not dare to let anyone touch the vine that grew the Rice Pods, deciding that it would not be too late to do so once it was confirmed that rice could give rise to Rice Pods.
