Southeast Texas has one of the biggest rice growing areas in the United States. Other states that also produce major amounts of rice are Arkansas, California, Louisiana, Mississippi and Missouri. These six states produce nearly all rice grown in the United States. The United States typically exports about half its crop each year and, although producing less than 2 percent of global rice production, is the fourth-largest rice exporting country accounting for 11-12 percent of global shipments.
