anama produced 180,000 t <strong>of</strong> rough rice in 1989 (FAO 1990b).<br />

Annu<strong>al</strong> consumption <strong>of</strong> milled rice per capita was 48 kg in 1979-<br />

81 (FAO 1984) and 54 kg in 1986-88 (FAO 1990a). CICA7 was<br />

planted in 34% <strong>of</strong> the rice area in 1982-83. CICA8, CR5272, L4444,<br />

T-5430, and CR1113 were <strong>al</strong>so planted (D<strong>al</strong>rymple 1986).<br />

Only Anayansi ex CIAT was an<strong>al</strong>yzed and had high AC, low GT,<br />

and hard GC (Appendix). Its grain had medium length and shape. The<br />

other vari<strong>et</strong>ies listed above had mostly high AC, except CR5272 from<br />

Costa Rica, which had intermediate-high AC.<br />

rice production in the USA was 7.0 million t in 1989 (FAO<br />

1990b). Annu<strong>al</strong> consumption <strong>of</strong> milled rice per capita was<br />

4.5 kg in 1979-81 (FAO 1984) and >4 kg in 1981 (Webb <strong>et</strong> a1<br />

1985). Milled rice supply per capita in 1986-88 was 6.1 kg/yr (FAO<br />

1990a). Production was 70-75% long grain and 25-30% medium and<br />

short grain.<br />

The preferred qu<strong>al</strong>ity characteristics <strong>of</strong> US long-grained rices are<br />

intermediate AC, intermediate to intermediate-high GT, and s<strong>of</strong>t GC<br />

(B.D. Webb, Rice Research Southern Region, ARS, USDA, 1990, pers.<br />

commun.). Production is limited <strong>of</strong> speci<strong>al</strong> long-grained rices Rexmont<br />

(high AC), Toro II (low AC), Della (Texmati) and A301 (intermediate<br />

AC, aromatic), and Jasmine 85 (IR841-67-1, low AC, aromatic).<br />

The preferred qu<strong>al</strong>ities among medium- and short-grained rices<br />

are low AC, low GT, and s<strong>of</strong>t GC. There is limited production <strong>of</strong><br />

Kokuhorose and M401, which have large, medium-grained rices with<br />

translucent flavorful grains. Mochigome has waxy, short grains. Imported<br />

long-grained rices are Thai jasmine (100,000 t/yr), Basmati<br />

(India), Thai waxy, Thai purple and red rices, and It<strong>al</strong>ian bold, medium-grained<br />

Arborio rice with white core (Webb 1990).<br />
