Key Information About Rice in Pakistan
Rice is a staple food in Pakistan, and its cultivation is a significant part of the country’s agriculture. The prices of rice vary based on the variety and quality, with Kainat and Basmati rice being the most popular and expensive types. Paddy prices are also listed separately, as they represent the raw, unprocessed form of rice.
Rice Varieties Cultivated in Pakistan
- Basmati Rice: Known for its long grains, aromatic fragrance, and fluffy texture. Varieties include Super Basmati, Basmati 385, and more. Prices for Basmati rice range from 10,500 PKR to 10,900 PKR per 40 KG.
- IRRI Varieties: These are high-yield, disease-resistant types like IRRI-6 and IRRI-9. They are generally cheaper than Basmati rice.
- Non-Basmati Varieties: These include diverse grain lengths and textures. Varieties like KS-282 and KS-133 are more affordable.
Planting and Caring for Rice
- Planting Methods: Rice can be planted using the wetland method, which involves transplanting seedlings into flooded paddies, or the dryland method, where seeds are sown directly into dry soil.
- Crop Management: Proper water management and the application of fertilizers such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium are essential for healthy crop growth.
