Rice was designated the official state grain of Arkansas in 2007. Arkansas is the top rice-producing state in the U.S., growing almost half of all American rice (primarily in the eastern half of the state). Rice is the leading agricultural crop of the state and Stuttgart, Arkansas is called "America's Rice Capital."
