In certain places, it is called the"queen of perfumed rice." Basmati rice is native to India and Pakistan, with India being accountable for 2/3 of their international source.

Rice is regarded as a high GI food but it varies depending on the kind and volume of processing (processing increases the GI). Reports show the GI of rice that range from 48-93. [2] Low GI foods have a rating of 55 or less, moderate GI foods are 56-69, and high GI foods are 70-100. The average GI for brown rice is low at 55, whereas the GI for white rice is higher at 64 . [3] Observational studies have found an association between a high GI diet and greater risk for type two diabetes. A meta-analysis of seven large cohort studies from Western and Asian populations found a 55 percent greater risk of developing type two diabetes when comparing the highest to lowest intakes of white rice in Asians.

India's top rice imports

 India's top rice imports are convinced the government will not follow other nations in adopting restrictions on grains exports as the country has more than enough supplies to satisfy domestic demand. Bumper plants will help the nation avoid curbs on international sales, according to some of the country's key exporters. As the coronavirus continues to spread across the Earth, panic buying and worries over supply chain disruptions have led several states including Vietnam, Russia and Kazakhstan, to quit exporting some basic foods to shore up supplies in the home. That has raised concerns over whether India, the world's biggest exporter of rice , will follow suit. "India isn't deficient in manufacturing and, at the immediate foreseeable future, there does not appear to be a cause for concern over food safety," said Vijay Setia, director at Chaman Lal Setia Exports Ltd., a rice miller and exporter.

Climate changes impacts on Rice productions

 Introduction Ethiopia is facing diverse climate associated challenges in 2020. The principal challenges are related with all the desert locust invasions from the Northeast (Tigray, Wollo and Afar areas) and South-eastern (Dire Dawa and Hararghe) regions of the nation and flooding connected with constant heavy rains that has affected the Fogera plain and the lowland regions of Afar area. Additionally, the flood in the Fogera plain has been aggravated by (I) the poor management of irrigation channels of this uncompleted rib river irrigation scheme, which has been under construction since 2008, (ii) lack of flood management structures in the districts of this Fogera simple, and (iii) the lack of coordinated and proper pest control practices (e.g. afforestation, terracing and other flood controlling practices) on the upper catchment areas (upland regions ) of the Fogera plain, and a scarcity of flood-risk reduction and analysis to get a quick response.We introduce the size of flood da...
