Basmati rice
Organic
India
This aromatic rice comes from the Dataganj region in the state of Uttar Pardesh in Northeast India. Here, more than 800 family farmers grow the rice on around 1.5-2.0 hectares of land, where all processing is done by hand. The families irrigate their fields strategically without having to rely on constant flooding.
