Since the late 1800's Arkansas has been producing rice thanks to Mr. W.H. Fuller, who discovered the crop while on a hunting trip in a neighboring state. He thought this crop would be perfect for Arkansas farmers, who needed a crop that would perform well in the prairie lands of Arkansas. He was definitely on to something!

Today Arkansas is the number one producer of rice in the United States. There are more than 2,500 rice farms in Arkansas, of which a whopping 96% of them are family owned.
