A transparent commodity breakdown of how raw paddy prices, milling recovery ratios, husk/bran byproducts, labor, sortex processing, and freight translate into per-kg wholesale rates.
To understand why wholesale rice prices move, one must grasp the milling recovery dynamics of paddy (Dhan). When 100 kg of raw paddy arrives at a milling facility from the mandi, it breaks down approximately into:
• Head Rice (Whole unbroken grain): 50% to 55%
• Broken Rice (Tota / Kani): 10% to 15%
• Rice Husk (Chilka): 20% to 22%
• Rice Bran (Phak / Polish): 8% to 10%
• Moisture Loss & Foreign Matter: 2% to 4%
Modern mills sell rice husk to industrial boilers and rice bran to solvent extraction plants for edible oil production. The income generated from these byproducts partially offsets electrical energy, sortex optical wear, and labor expenses, allowing competitive head rice pricing.
When you request a rate quote from Amir Rice Supplier, our spot quotation is derived mathematically:
Raw Grain Valuation (Ex-Mill Base) + Optical Sortex & De-stoning + Double Silky Polish + Heavy-Duty 50kg PP Bagging + Labor Stacking + Weighbridge Bilty Freight to your destination city.
Because we operate as an independent sourcing broker, we continuously cross-examine pricing across competing mills to ensure our buyers never pay inflated manufacturer overheads.
