COVID-19 Cancels 2020 Rice Outlook Conference

The 2020 USA Rice Outlook Conference, scheduled for December 9-11, in Austin, Texas, will not be held in-person due to the impossibility of putting on a large trade show and conference in compliance with public health safety guidelines and regulations. Yesterday, the USA Rice Board of Directors met, via conference call, to discuss other options including a full virtual conference, but reluctantly decided the best plan for this was to not hold the conference at all.
