About a third of Texas rice crop now planted

About 32% of the Texas rice crop has been planted, based on the Friday estimate posted on the state's Rice Crop Survey web site.

Friday's USDA planting intentions report indicates that Texas growers could increase plantings this year by 6.67%, moving it from 150,000 acres in 2006 to 160,000 acres in 2007. That's still significantly below the 202,000 acres planted in 2005.
