It's not correct to say that the staple cereal of the whole of South Asia is rice. Almost the entire northern half of South Asia numbering close to a billion people have the Indian flat bread made of whole wheat as the staple cereal. They do consume some amount of rice too but it's definitely not a staple for these people. Flat bread made from whole wheat called 'roti' or 'chapati' is the staple cereal in this region.
