We'll reply to indianrice64@gmail.com within 24 hours.IR64 rice is a high-yielding, semi-dwarf, long-grain indica rice variety developed by the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) and officially released in 1985. It stands as one of the most widely cultivated and internationally traded non-basmati rice varieties in the world, grown extensively across India, Vietnam, the Philippines, Bangladesh, and Indonesia.
Indian IR64 rice — particularly from Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Odisha, and Tamil Nadu — is globally prized for its consistent quality, long slender grain (6.0–6.6mm), mild aroma, and excellent cooking characteristics. It expands significantly on cooking, remains non-sticky and fluffy, and is the preferred rice variety for bulk food trade across Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia.
