Japan has imported South Korean rice for the first time in over two decades amid surging domestic prices for the staple grain.

Ooh, I love Japanese rice but the South Korean strains are super sticky short grain. They're almost SWEET. Good stuff.

Why is there a shortage of rice grown in Japan? This article doesn’t say.

There really isn't. Japan only imports about 4% of its rice. 2% from the US and China each. Now it's probably 3% China and 1% other sources like SK.

No, there is. Last year was really poor and led to shortages and price hikes. It's still available, but more expensive.
