Welcome!

The Arkansas Rice Processing Program is pleased to present the Rice 101 series, providing a comprehensive introduction to rice production and processing for members of the rice industry. Rice 101 is comprised of 16 modules covering everything from the structure of a rice kernel to milling and how rice is eventually used in consumer products. We hope you find Rice 101 informative and helpful.

This production of Rice 101 was supported by numerous industry sponsors of the Arkansas Rice Processing Program. Our work would not be possible without all our sponsors, past and present.
