The South Louisiana Rail Facility broke ground Thursday on a new $21 million rice mill, adding value to locally grown rice and opening up more markets for rice farmers in South Louisiana and Southeast Texas.
Local and state officials gathered to celebrate construction of the state-of-the-art rice milling facility which will be built on a three acre site adjacent to the South Louisiana Rail Facility (SLRF) at the Lacassine Industrial Park in Jeff Davis Parish.
