The third year of wet weather from La Nina is "proving a headache" for southern NSW rice growers, as SunRice Group says it may waive a contract provision that charges growers a fee if they don't supply committed levels of paddy.
While the wet weather has been a "great thing for rice production generally" - with water storage at its highest level in decades and water prices at low levels - it hasn't been great for rice planting, the rice giant says.
