Description :  

Fresh paddy refers to rice grains still enclosed in their husks (protective outer layer) immediately after harvesting. It is the raw, unprocessed form of rice, typically golden or greenish in color, depending on the variety and maturity. The grains grow in dense clusters on tall stalks, with each husk encasing an edible rice kernel. Fresh paddy has a high moisture content and a grassy, earthy aroma. It requires proper drying and post-harvest processing to extend its shelf life and prepare it for consumption.

Primary Uses :  

Rice Production :  

Milling : Fresh paddy is processed through milling to remove the husk, producing brown rice. Further polishing yields white rice, a staple food for billions worldwide.

Varieties : Different paddy types (e.g., long-grain basmati, short-grain sushi rice, aromatic jasmine) cater to diverse culinary needs.

By-Products and Secondary Uses :  

Husk (Chaff) : Used as fuel, insulation material, or in construction (e.g., lightweight concrete). It’s also composted or turned into mulch.

Rice Straw : The dried stalks serve as animal feed, bedding for livestock, raw material for crafts (e.g., mats, hats), or biofuel.

Bran : A nutrient-rich layer removed during milling; used in animal feed or to extract rice bran oil.
