The problem is that rice is harder to cultivate. You can grow wheat directly from seed (just plant it) but rice has to be grown from seedlings, which are then planted by hand in an appropriate environment. Rice also has a demand for a lot of water during its growing life, which generally starts off in a shallow pool we call a “paddy”. Rice plants, unlike wheat which can tolerate anything that isn’t frost, require a very warm environment - freezing over will kill them.
