Abstract: Excerpt from the report Foreword: This report presents the results of a survey of the rice-producing and consuming countries of the Western Hemisphere which was made in the summer of 1949 in the interests of, the United States rice industry. The study had two major objectives: (1) To appraise the probable competition to be expected from the surplus-rice areas of Latin America, and (2) to evaluate the possibilities of marketing United States rice in the deficit-rice areas of the Western Hemisphere. Other objectives included a descriptive study of the production, milling, and marketing methods in the major areas to accumulate a background of basic facts for use in appraising changes that occur in these areas in the future.
