Terrific drone footage shot and edited by John Hannon of the rice harvest at Montna Farms in Sutter County. California grows virtually all of America's Sushi Rice.

Henry- rice is more water efficient than many people realize. It takes about the same amount of water to grow a serving of rice as it does oranges or broccoli. Plus, rice has tremendous environmental benefits- providing habitat for millions of birds along the Pacific Flyway.

Is this harvested rice cost effective given the water needed to grow? Especially during a four year drought that is devastating the California economy?
