USDA purchases rice for federal nutrition programs

Original: USDA buys rice to distribute through nutrition programs

The move supports rice producers while supplying food banks and nutrition initiatives with staple food. Little further detail is available about the size of the purchase or which programs will receive the rice, and reaction so far appears limited.

Why now: unclear
