A Rice Farmer Who Loves Farming, Food & YouTube
You can learn a lot talking to a rice farmer about the way he works with the land to produce one of the world's most common foods. We talk with YouTuber & Matthew Sligar of Rice Farming TV.
Matthew talks with us about the way rice is grown in California and we discuss some of the other ways rice is grown. Some of the things that people who enjoy eating rice may be interested in -- what's the difference in brown & white rice, why is some rice cheaper than other types, etc.
We also talk about the way Matthew utilizes his creativity to share the story of rice in video as well as a brand new children's book.
