The seed of the grass Oryza glaberrimaor Oryza sativais known as rice. Rice is a cereal grain, which is a staple food of more than half of the population of the world. In addition, it is considered as the second most important cereal crop in the world. Annually, the global production of rice is around 700 million tons. China, India,and Vietnam are among the largest producers of rice. The area of harvesting rice in China is lower than India's rice harvesting area. However, as only less than half of India's rice area gets irrigated, China accounts for greater rice production.

Rice is available in different varieties and types with varied segmentations. Each type of rice has its unique properties, taste, and texture, working differently with various cooking recipes. U.S. alone commercially produces around 20 different varieties of rice. Few unique varieties of rice belonging to the aromatic category such as jasmine rice and basmati rice are extensively imported from India, Thailand, and Pakistan.

The plant of rice takes about three to six months form germination to maturity, which completely depends upon the variety of rice and the environment in which it is grown. Rice is majorly consumed after cooking in water, whereas rice wafers, rice flakes, puffed rice, and canned rice are some other forms of rice consumption. Some other industries such as starch and brewing industries also use rice. The by-products of rice left after milling, that is, rice husk and bran, are used as a poultry & cattle feed. Rice market is expected to see a substantial growth during the forecast period, owing to the ever-growing consumption of rice.
