<<Rice is produced widely in Ontario in Lakes and Rivers. It is seasonally harvested by some commercial operations and finds its way into shelf products. It is illegal to farm rice in Ontario >>

"Rice is the principal food crop in practically all the tropical realons of the world as well as in most subtropical areas and in some temperate zone areas having a relatively long growing season."
