California rice to the Orient boosts Sacrament o farmers
California rice farming ties to Asia reshape local farming choices as Vietnam wartime needs fall and Japan lowers imports, boosting domestic acreage. About 2,000 farmers market rice through the Rice Growers Association of California with nearly 70 million dollars flowing to mills and exports from the Port of Sacramento. South Korea remains a major buyer while Vietnam's share diminishes amid policy shifts.

Orange growers caught in squeeze in San Bernardino
In San Bernardino Valley the citrus market is strained as investors using tax schemes push up grove prices. Farmers, taxed higher, sell at inflated values while retaining mortgages. Deals favor investors who pay little income tax through long sales terms, raising taxes for sellers and squeezing growers.
