    The contamination led to a dramatic dip in rice futures markets with losses to farmers who grew rice for export. [37] Approximately 30 percent of rice production and 11,000 farmers in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri and Texas were affected. [37] In June 2011 Bayer agreed to pay $750 million in damages and lost harvests. [37]

  3. Texas rice production - Wikipedia

    Grains of rice. Rice production in Texas began in 1853 in southeast Texas. By 1903, the acres of cultivated rice in Texas was second only to Louisiana and together accounted for 99 percent of rice production in United States. While other states have surpassed Texas in rice production, it remains a significant Texas crop into the foreseeable future.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genomic_selection

    GS is a method proposed to address deficiencies of marker-assisted selection (MAS) in breeding programs. However, GS is a form of MAS that differs from it by estimating, at the same time, all genetic markers, haplotypes or marker effects along the entire genome to calculate the values of genomic estimated breeding values (GEBV).
