STUTTGART, AR — A story in the Sunday edition of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (subscription required) profiles Riceland Foods’ Carl Brothers and chronicles his ascension from working as an electric sorter operator to senior vice president for international rice and partnerships at Riceland Foods, the world’s largest rice miller and marketer.

Brothers’ personal history epitomizes the American dream —with just a high school diploma, a strong work ethic and keen business sensibility, he became a highly respected figure within the rice industry locally and internationally. He serves as an appointed member of the Agricultural Policy Advisory Committee for Trade, which advises the U.S. secretary of agriculture and the U.S. trade representative on agricultural trade policy and has also served as a board member and past chairman of the USA Rice Federation, the U.S. Rice Millers’ Association, and the Rice Foundation.
