Rice production won''t recover
4 Sep 2008

The NSW Rice Marketing Board said "the potential for full recovery was zero". There has not been a decent rice crop in the Murrumbidgee irrigation area in southern New South Wales for three years, according to the Rice Growers Association of Australia executive director. This year''s crop was just 19,400 tonnes, down from 166,000 tonnes last year, and 1.04 million in 2006.
