Policy compliance:
- Adequate sourcing:
- Neutral:
- Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:
- There are a few common phrases that should be reworded, since they are not proper names. - Other problems: -
By 1903, Texas—cultivated 234,000 acres of rice.
- was there supposed to be something in the middle of the sentence? Otherwise, remove the dash.
Hook eligibility:
- Cited: - Hook is sourced, but the citation needs to be repeated just after the relevant statement, per WP:DYK#Cited hook.
- Interesting:
| QPQ: Done. |
Overall: 
I suggest converting the first two sections into level-2 headers (only 2 equal signs, instead of 3 equal signs), or adding a main header above the "Early Cultivation" section. Currently this usage of header violates the MOS. epicgenius (talk) 00:23, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
