Parboiled and white rice are variants of hydrothermally processed rice. Parboiled rice is partially boiled and processed in lukewarm or cold water before husking and milling. White rice is usually milled after removing the husk, bran, and germ. They are a rich source of calcium, potassium, fiber, and vitamin B6 and are widely used in dry powders, instant soup mixes, and frozen foods. Parboiled and white rice are commonly long, medium, and short. They have been widely used in ready-to-eat (RTE) breakfast cereals, biscuits, extruded snacks, baby foods, noodles, fermented beverages, and oils. However, compared to white rice, parboiled rice is easy to digest, takes less time to cool, and has a fluffier and less sticky texture.

Rising awareness of the health benefits of parboiled and white rice among the masses is a driving force behind the market’s growth. Further, the rising expenditure capacities of the consumers, along with the implementation of favorable government policies promoting rice cultivation, is anticipated to drive the market toward growth.

Market Dynamics: Growth in the parboiled rice and white rice market with increasing awareness about the health benefits of parboiled rice

People include parboiled rice in their meals to increase their nutrient intake due to the numerous health benefits of parboiled rice and its higher vitamin and mineral content than white rice.

It is followed by sensor-based paddy drying systems, which provide uniform paddy drying while reducing broken grains. Furthermore, on July 26, 2022, IARI released three new basmati rice types. To improve export prospects and reduce pesticide use, the Indian Agricultural Research Institute (IARI) distributed seeds of three new basmati rice types in this Kharif season resistant to bacterial blight and blast diseases. It has supplied farmers with seeds of improved PB1847, PB1885, and PB1886 rice varieties, in which two genes have been inserted, which could withstand the attack of bacterial blight and blast diseases, which reduce crop yield.

However, compared to other types of rice, parboiled rice is more expensive and requires more processing, which raises the capital cost.
