Ozark Rice

Ozark is a high-yielding, conventional long-grain rice variety. 

Key Characteristics

• Yield Potential: In Arkansas trials, Ozark has averaged around 182 to 219 bushels per acre. It consistently shows a yield advantage (approx. 10 bu/ac) over its predecessor, Diamond. 

• Plant Height: It is a traditional-stature variety, standing about 43–44 inches tall. Despite its height, it has shown surprising resilience to lodging (falling over) during storms because its stalks stay green and strong.  

• Maturity: It is considered a mid-season variety, reaching 50% heading in about 88–91 days from emergence. 

• Grain Quality: It produces slender kernels with a length of approximately 7.45 mm. It is known for having low chalk and very white appearances when cooked.  

* Farmers call for bulk pricing.
