About IR-64 Parboiled Rice

Discover the nutritionally superior rice that retains more vitamins and minerals through the parboiling process

The Golden Grain Advantage

IR-64 Parboiled Rice is created through a specialized steam-pressure process that drives nutrients from the bran into the endosperm before milling. This ancient technique, perfected with modern technology, results in rice that's nutritionally superior to regular milled rice while maintaining excellent cooking qualities.

At Lavan Agro, we source premium IR-64 paddy from the fertile regions of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where ideal climate conditions produce rice with optimal starch content for parboiling. Our state-of-the-art parboiling units use precise temperature and pressure controls to ensure consistent quality batch after batch.

The parboiling process gives our IR-64 rice its characteristic golden hue and firmer texture when cooked. It becomes less sticky than regular rice, making it perfect for biryanis, pulao, and other dishes where separate grains are desired. The process also extends shelf life and reduces breakage during milling.

Superior Cooking Quality

Grains remain separate and firm after cooking, perfect for biryanis and pulao. Less sticky than regular rice with excellent water absorption (1:2.5 rice to water ratio).

Our Parboiling Process

The science behind our nutritionally superior rice

Soaking

Paddy soaked in hot water (65-70°C) for 6-8 hours to hydrate grains

Steaming

High-pressure steaming gelatinizes starch and drives nutrients inward

Drying

Grains dried to 12-14% moisture for stable storage

Milling

Modern milling preserves grain integrity with ≤5% breakage

Packaging

Vacuum-packed for freshness in export-ready packaging

Key Benefits of Parboiled Rice

Why our customers prefer IR-64 parboiled rice

Nutritional Advantages

Retains up to 80% of water-soluble B vitamins (thiamine, niacin) compared to 30-40% in regular milled rice. Higher in fiber and minerals like calcium and potassium.

Cooking Benefits

Grains remain separate and firm after cooking. Less likely to become mushy or sticky. Absorbs flavors well while maintaining texture. Ideal for fried rice and biryanis.

Commercial Advantages

Longer shelf life (up to 2 years) due to reduced oil content. Less prone to insect infestation. Higher milling yield with less breakage (≤5%).

Health Benefits

Lower glycemic index (GI 38 vs 73 for white rice) makes it better for diabetics. Higher resistant starch content supports gut health. Gluten-free and easily digestible.
