USDA says there were about 2,019,000 farms in the US in 2020. But how many were actually farms in the usual sense of the word, growing food for sale as their primary business. I'm sure @rosenblawg said something about this recently, but I can't now find it. Help, please.

Star of this mess is not the tofu, the zucchini or the peanuts but the rice. There is a variety called Baldo that I only ever see unpolished and that is the bedrock of this and so many other meals. Nutty, chewy, filling, nutritious. Never without it for emergencies.
