Rice is the most important staple food for a large part of the world's human population, providing more than one fifth of the calories consumed worldwide by the human species.

Because of its relatively low cost, high calorie density, long shelf life and strong nutritional qualities, it is no wonder that it is enjoyed by billions of people daily.
