This map is basically a civilizational personality test. Rice farming needs 2x the labor of wheat, shared irrigation, coordinated planting cycles. You literally can't survive without your neighbours. This results in collectivist, tight-knit, "don't rock the boat" cultures. Wheat you can farm solo with your family and a plough.
The gender split is even more interesting. Southeast Asia is overwhelmingly bilateral or matrilineal in kinship. Women own property, pick husbands, control household income. Meanwhile the green zone runs almost perfectly along the world's most patrilineal, honour-driven belt from Turkey through Central Asia to Punjab. Male lineage, bride price, izzat, purdah.
