Sustainability

Technology evolves rapidly, and our rice farmer’s conservation efforts have evolved with it.  Every year, U.S. farmers grow rice more efficiently with significantly fewer natural resources, continually expanding their knowledge and expertise. Conserving natural resources and focusing on sustainable practices is essential if we are to preserve our rice farming traditions and pass them on to the next generation. USA Rice along with The Rice Foundation developed several resources to highlight the gains for the industry in sustainability since 1980.
