I was able to find "Rice Situation and Outlook/RCS-2000/November 2000" from Economic Research Service/USDA:
The United States exports about 10,000 to 14,000 tons of
short grain brown rice each year. Japan accounts for two-
thirds, most of it sold under the Simultaneous-Buy-Sell
(SBS) portion of their total WTO minimum access imports.
Japan is the Top Market for U.S.
Medium Grain Milled Rice
Japan is the largest market for both medium and short grain
milled rice. Virtually all of Japan’s rice imports are pur-
chased under minimum access requirements of the WTO. In
1999/2000, Japan imported more than 67,000 tons of U.S.
medium grain milled rice, virtually all from California, and
accounted for more than a third of total U.S. medium grain
milled rice exports.
Japan accounts for the bulk of U.S. exports of short grain
milled rice, taking nearly 23,000 tons in 1999/2000. Nearly
all were purchased under the SBS program as part of
Japan’s WTO minimum access purchases.
