Shahi Khana Basmati Rice Milling Process
At Gupta Rice And General Mill, under the premium brand Shahi Khana, we combine tradition with cutting-edge technology to bring you the finest quality rice. Here’s how we ensure every grain is pure, polished, and perfect:
Paddy Self Procurement
Paddy Self Procurement is a farmer-centric procurement system that enables rice mills, cooperatives, or government agencies to directly purchase paddy from registered farmers at fair and transparent prices. This process minimizes the involvement of intermediaries, ensures timely payments, maintains quality standards, and supports farmers in securing better returns for their produce. By streamlining procurement operations, Paddy Self Procurement contributes to efficient supply chain management, improved traceability, and sustainable growth in the rice industry.
Cleaning and De-Husking
Cleaning and De-Husking is a crucial stage in rice processing where harvested paddy is thoroughly cleaned to remove dust, stones, husk particles, and other impurities. The paddy is then de-husked using advanced milling equipment to separate the outer husk from the rice grain while preserving its quality. This process ensures cleaner, safer, and high-quality rice for further polishing, grading, and packaging.
Polishing and Whitening
Polishing and Whitening is an essential rice milling process that enhances the appearance, texture, and market value of rice. During this stage, the bran layers are carefully removed from de-husked rice to achieve a clean, smooth, and bright finish. Advanced polishing equipment ensures uniform grain quality while preserving the rice’s integrity and improving its overall appeal for consumers.
Color and Length Sorting
Color and Length Sorting is a precision quality-control process that separates rice grains based on their color, size, and length. Advanced optical sorters detect and remove discolored, damaged, or defective grains, while length graders ensure uniform grain size. This process enhances product consistency, purity, and visual appeal, delivering premium-quality rice that meets market and consumer expectations.
Quality Testing and Packaging
Quality Testing and Packaging is the final stage of rice processing, ensuring that every batch meets stringent quality, safety, and hygiene standards. Rice is carefully tested for purity, moisture content, grain consistency, and overall quality before being packed using advanced packaging systems. This process preserves freshness, prevents contamination, and ensures that consumers receive premium-quality rice in secure and reliable packaging.
