Abstract

Excerpts from the report: As competition and rice handling and storage operating costs increase, efficiency becomes more important. If a commercial rice dryer operator is to be competitive and provide low-cost services while earning a reasonable profit, he must maintain a high degree of operating efficiency. Detailed cost information, by functions, provides a basis for operators to evaluate the impact on costs of such factors as type of storage facility, size or scale of operation, and variations in storage capacity utilized. Results of this study and others are combined into an analysis of the organization and operation of the rice industry. The principal objective was to determine, describe, analyze, and evaluate detailed operating costs for rice dryer-storage operations, by functions, for all major U.S. rice producing regions.
