Rice Quality and Grades

Components of rice known and referred to as grain quality largely determine market price and consumer acceptance. The most important factors plant breeders consider in developing new rice varieties are grain quality and yield. If consumers do not like the flavor, texture, taste, aroma, appearance, cookability, or processability of a newly developed rice, any other outstanding attribute of the variety may be worthless (IRRI 1985).
