According to the USA Rice Federation, oddly located in London, England:
Arkansas
California
Texas
Louisiana
Mississippi
Missouri
Florida
They forgot about the wild rice from Minnesota. However, even though it's the "State Grain, " it's apparently technically not rice:
"Wild Rice, Minnesota's State Grain, is almost as old as history itself. This highly nutritious grain is not actually rice, but an annual water-grass seed, "zizania aquatica". Naturally abundant in the cold rivers and lakes of Minnesota and Canada, wild rice was the staple in the diet of the Chippewa and Sioux Indians, native to this region. " The company providing that info is one that sells that rice--and they're in Wisconsin.
