How much of the rice eaten in Japan is grown in Japan? Where does the other rice come from?

Question:

How much of the rice eaten in Japan is grown in Japan? Where does the other rice come from?

I would like to have the statistics please, and the source where you got it from. I am doing this for a school project, and I can't seem to find it anywhere on the web! I tried looking in books too, but I couldn't find it.

thank you!

Answer:

This question does not make much sense, unfortunately.
Because we eat both domestic rice and imported rice for different purposes.
We eat Japanese rice with Japanese food at home and Japanese-style restaurants.
But, when we eat foreign cuisine (Italian, Mexican, Indian, Chinese, etc), we eat imported rice, not because we are running out of Japanese rice, but imported rice are more suited for foreign-style cooking.

Our self-sufficiency of Japanese rice is 100%, but we import a limited amount of rice from overseas (mainly from Thailand, I believe). Do you know the 'astronomical' difference between Japanese rice and foreign-made rice? We definitely need both of them, because we eat all kinds of foods from all over the world.
So, your question; "How much of the rice eaten in Japan is grown in Japan" does not make a sense to us Japanese.
