Organic Rice From Haiti on Amazon

Some Good news for the Haitian rice farmer, U.S. imports eclipse Haitian production "There's a long history in Haiti of groups like USAID flooding the market with rice and other imports," said Victor. "This is not what we need. We need real help and that means completely changing the agricultural system." Agricultural production accounted for nearly half of gross domestic product in the 1970s. It now amounts to less than a third. And U.S. rice imports have long eclipsed Haitian production, due in part to smaller local yields because of environmental degradation and the lowest rice import tariffs in the Caribbean community.

Now you can help correct those wrongs by purchasing Rice from Haiti in the comfort of your own house.
