Unfortunately the price of rice wasn’t great, wasn’t horrible either, just average.

Is rice the limiting factor in boudin production?

shite were making it with conventional varieties now. Used to have to plant hybrids to get close to that. Prices suck though.

I’ll be honest I don’t understand how these rice farmers make it. All they talk about is the depressed price the last several years yet they still plant the same acreage each year. I don’t understand how they keep their lifestyles unless subsidies are that good or they are lying about the profitability of rice acreage since 2013/2014.
