Rice is the seed of Oryza sativa. It is considered a staple cereal in many culinary cultures (especially Asian food) and in parts of Latin America. The seed corresponds to the second largest produced cereal in the world after maize. Because corn is produced for many other purposes than human consumption, one can say that rice is the most important cereal for human consumption, and contributes very effectively to caloric diet. Rice is responsible for the caloric value of one-fifth of the calories consumed worldwide by humans. Since 2008 there has been a rationing in some countries due to the shortage of rice. In countries like Bangladesh and Cambodia can be almost three quarters of the population feeding. Package: 500g
