Chinese gathered the first cultivated rice around 9,400 years ago. Rice is crucial since it feeds more than half of the world’s population. The three major rice-producing countries are China, India, and Indonesia, which produce more than 60% of the world’s rice. Rice comes in many kinds, each with its unique taste and feel. Some common types are long-grain, medium-grain, and short-grain rice. Long-grain rice is liked in the USA, and people use it for dishes like pilafs, stir-fries, and salads. Medium-grain rice is a bit less sticky and is suitable for sushi and risotto. Short-grain rice is the most humid and is used in sweet treats and puddings. India’s export ban has lowered global rice trade forecasts for 2023 and 2024.
