A lesson on Japanese rice

[watermen]

I saw this interesting news today, it say that Japan has tons of foreign rice stock.

World looks to Japan's rice mountain to ease crisis

Can we have a lesson on Japanese rice? and What do Japanese think of both kind of rice?

I like that suggestion --

Rice is such an integral part of Japanese culture it would be interesting to learn more about it.

History, types grown/used, customs for usage, even traditions on how best to cook it.
