How it works
Rice (oryza sativa) is the seed of a cereal grass. It's one of the most important dietary carbohydrates in the world, with over half the global population depending on it. Typically boiled or steamed, rice can also be ground into a gluten-free flour.
- White rice has had the fibre-rich outer bran of the grain removed along-with the nutrient-rich germ.
- Brown rice, on the other hand, contains both the bran and germ, making it nutrient- and fibre-rich and retains a nutty flavour.
- Brown rice is more beneficial. This is due to brown rice containing the husk, which is where most of the nutrients are found.
- The traditional method for cultivating rice is flooding the fields while, or after, setting the young seedlings. This simple method requires sound irrigation planning but reduces the growth of less robust weed and pest plants that have no submerged growth state, and deters vermin.
