IR 8 Rice | Detailed Product Description

About IR 8 Rice

IR 8 Rice is an Indian non-basmati rice variety or trade designation derived from Oryza sativa. The named product is commonly marketed as general-purpose cooked rice, serving bulk rice wholesale and milling operations. Buyers distinguish it by staple grain texture depending on processing, with cooking characteristics affected by cultivar, age and milling technique.

A commercial rice specification should identify raw versus parboiled processing, grain length, milling degree, broken-grain percentage and varietal identity, milling percentage and grain appearance. Codex CXS 198 establishes a maximum moisture content of 15% and limits extraneous matter for milled rice. A 5% broken-kernel grade is used here as an illustrative premium trade target, not an automatic property of this variety.

Before large-volume distribution, lot sampling can check colour uniformity, weevils, stones, odour and packaging integrity. Moisture-resistant sacks, batch markings and documentary origin traces support shipment management. This named rice line is a proposed catalogue addition, not a variety expressly named in the LEEL EXPORTS brochure.
