California Rice Feeds Orient Amid War and Policy Shifts
California rice, worth about 100 million dollars a year, largely grown near Sacramento, ships over half its output through the Port of Sacramento to Asia. South Korea remains the leading customer, with nearly 47 percent of this year’s sales, while Japan’s subsidy program has transformed demand and could push Japan toward export status. The Rice Growers Association notes Vietnam’s rice import needs have fallen as its crop recovers, affecting U.S. acreage allotments and farm decisions in the region.
