The best place for growing rice is in the south-central US, not the southeast. First, there's the warm weather, and the abundant rainfall. But also, the soils in the area tend to hold water rather than let it drain away. Rice can breathe through its leaves, so it doesn't hurt the crop if the fields are flooded. However, almost no weeds will grow in flooded fields.
