It appears that the U.S. fracking boom is ending far earlier than many industry experts and CEOs predicted.

Across a diversity of landscapes, soils, and climates, native rice varieties, also called “landraces,” were cultivated by local farmers. And these varieties sprouted rice diversity in hue, aroma, texture, and taste.
