It's always easy to figure out what the farmer gets. Just take your retail rice and divide it by 5 to 10. When I was a kid we visited a chicken farm that sold the chickens for meat to Campbell soup. They got 1.5 cents per pound at the time and were expecting lower prices soon. Small scale farming is tough! Always has been.
