They do it in Arkansas but the intensive rice agriculture has damaged their aquifers as they have done so in California as well. Intensive monoculture is harmful. Decentralized farming would help small farmers and be more environmentally friendly. Things would cost a bit more but with fewer harmful externalities monus big agricture..
