Grainiacs
Some call us nerds. Others call us crazy. We call ourselves Grainiacs. We've got grain on the brain, and we're getting inside our experts' heads. In our podcast, we will topics from every inch of the rice industry and our cooperative.
Whether we are exploring new farming techniques, agribusiness and trade topics, or stories and trends around food, cooking, and culture, Riceland is doing the "rice" thing. We're all about growing for good and feeding the world. Join our community as we explore the field of issues in growing, marketing, cooking, and eating (but mostly growing) the most popular grain on earth.
