National-Global Impact
Rice Production in California is The Most Advanced in the World
California rice touches the heart of each rural community in which the grain is grown and produced, but the economic impacts of the nearly century-old industry go much further.
From the Midwestern mill manager supervising his crew, to the dockworker in Asia moving containers from ships, to the trucker making his or her way cross-country, California rice plays a pivotal and vital economic role. Those who produce, deliver, ship and process our rice benefit from the real wage, secure jobs the industry provides.
California rice growers affect lives all over the world - not only those directly involved in harvesting the crop, but also those on the periphery of our industry.
