520 _aIn India, kanji is more than food; it is a social practice, a medicinal comfort, and an ecological memory of rice cultivation. The preparation of kanji encodes knowledge of rice varieties, seasonal rhythms, fermentation, and the gendered labour of caregiving. Yet, despite this richness, kanji and similar forms of everyday food knowledge rarely figure within the frameworks of traditional knowledge protection in India.-Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2026/12/commentary/kanji-commons.html
