Discover the golden grain that offers superior nutrition and cooking qualities
PR-106 is a premium variety of parboiled rice that has gained immense popularity in international markets due to its excellent cooking qualities, nutritional benefits, and attractive golden hue. This medium-grain rice is particularly favored in African, Middle Eastern, and Southeast Asian markets where parboiled rice is a dietary staple.
At Lavan Agro, we specialize in processing PR-106 rice using traditional parboiling techniques combined with modern technology. Our rice undergoes a three-step hydrothermal process (soaking, steaming, and drying) that gelatinizes the starch, resulting in firmer, more separate grains that retain up to 80% of the original nutrients in the bran layer.
What sets our PR-106 parboiled rice apart is the meticulous quality control at every stage. We maintain optimal moisture content (≤12%), minimal broken grains (≤3%), and consistent golden color. The rice cooks to perfection - fluffy, non-sticky grains with excellent texture retention, making it ideal for pilafs, biryanis, and traditional dishes across various cuisines.
Premium quality, competitive pricing, and reliable supply chain
Our parboiling process preserves up to 80% of nutrients including B vitamins, minerals, and fiber that are typically lost in regular milling. Higher in calcium, potassium, and vitamin B6 compared to white rice.
Grains remain firmer and separate after cooking, ideal for pilafs and biryanis. Absorbs flavors better while maintaining texture. Cooks faster than regular rice with less water absorption.
The parboiling process naturally extends shelf life to 18-24 months. More resistant to insects and rancidity. Maintains quality even in tropical climates.
