By Deborah Willenborg
USA Rice
A four-part webinar series on U.S. rice industry sustainability is now available on the USA Rice website. The webinars are targeted to those who may be unfamiliar with rice sustainability efforts and practices and are an extension of the work done around the U.S. Rice Industry Sustainability Report.
The webinars feature speakers from Arkansas, California, Louisiana, and Mississippi, and each one takes on a specific topic including ways the rice industry impacts rural economies across America, energy efficiency, the latest in rice irrigation systems, and how U.S. rice farmers are preserving resources and providing wildlife habitat and why that’s important to them.
