Chinese right element may have used「hand pushing down, grasping」or「meat」with lower-right element of「dipping into, cavity with two sets of lips」as something plunging deeply down through two surface layers (maybe both water and muck in this case), plugging stems into a wet, muddy cavity by hand,「trapping」the roots as the old method of planting rice seedlings in a flooded RICE PADDY by inserting a few fingers into the bottom muck,「digital penetration」and then implanting the rice stems. This task was performed almost exclusively by groups of women bending over at the waist, with knees fairly straight to stay out of the mucky water and natural fertilizer slurry, which in the old days created a dazzling array of near-naked cavities with two sets of lips when viewed from behind…. Japanese elements use「grain that repeatedly dazzles」「formerly, previously」as the sprouted seed grains of rice from last year that have been planted and have become GROWING PLANTS that will be or have been transplanted into the mud of a RICE PADDY to produce rice grain. An original glyph meaning RICE PADDY.
　From time immemorial before the beginning, humans have collected feces and used it as fertilizer. Still today, researchers are working on finding solutions for problems facing humanity. It is not only feces that are an excellent fertilizer. Urine works, too! "Innovative system turns human waste into sustainable fertilizer: Stanford researchers have developed a prototype that harnesses urine to generate valuable fertilizer, offering solutions for sanitation and energy in resource-limited regions."

Modern definitions (that generally disregard history) …excluding politically incorrect concepts and other meanings deemed offensive today; may list only pigeonholed definitions, euphemisms, or meaningless mnemonics)
Chinese: paddy; rice (Oraza sativa)
Unihan extended: rice growing in field, rice plant
EDRDG: rice plant

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
