Rice prices have rebounded, and the Louisiana 2020 crop is off to a good start.
LSU AgCenter economist Michael Deliberto said there are several reasons why the economic outlook for rice is positive.
“There is no doubt that supplies are tight and demand has been good. These are the highest U.S. prices in at least seven years,” he said.
