In Arkansas, all land is precision graded to conserve our greatest resource: water. The farm's fertility and herbicide program is monitored closely to maximize the output on each acre. On-farm grain storage provides immediate processing of the rice crop to be marketed at a later time. During the off-season, a waterfowl haven exists. Farm tours are always available for any of our domestic or international clients.

In general, the varieties of rice that grow well in Texas are of a harder cooking variety than those grown in other regions. Rice contains two carbohydrate components - amilopectin and amilose. The amount of amilose controls the firmness of the rice and runs an average of 22 % to 24 % in Texas. A higher percentage of amilose leaves the rice firmer: a lower percentage, as found in other rice growing areas, leaves the rice softer. In addition, the gelatinization temperature (the temperature at which grains absorb water) of Texas rice is higher than that of rice grown in other areas. When water absorbs at lower temperatures, rice tends to become over cooked - one more problem Texas rice does not suffer.
