Premium IR64 Rice — India's Most Exported Long-Grain Variety
IR64 is one of India's most widely exported non-basmati rice varieties — a long-grain rice developed for its exceptional yield, reliable quality and consistent cooking performance. Cultivated across the fertile paddy fields of West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha and Tamil Nadu, it has become the staple choice for bulk buyers across West Africa, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.
Available in both raw (white) and parboiled (sella) forms, IR64 offers excellent grain separation after cooking, a clean neutral taste and the resilience required for mass-market food service and retail distribution. Its affordability and consistent availability make it the backbone of India's non-basmati rice export trade.
At SDEY Global Trade, we supply export-grade IR64 in 25kg and 50kg bags, FOB from Kolkata, Mumbai, Mundra and Chennai ports — with full APEDA certification, Halal compliance and phytosanitary documentation for every shipment.
Long Grain — Excellent Separation
IR64 grains are long, slender and cook to a fluffy, separated texture — ideal for curries, rice dishes and food service use at high volumes.
Raw & Parboiled Available
Available in white (raw) and parboiled (sella) forms — parboiled is especially popular in West Africa and Middle East markets for its nutritional retention.
Best Value for Bulk Buyers
IR64 offers the best price-to-quality ratio in India's non-basmati category — high yield, consistent grade, and competitive FOB pricing for container loads.
High Supply Availability
Sourced from India's most productive paddy belts — year-round supply, up to 500 tons per week available for consistent, reliable FCL shipments.
Full Export Documentation
Phytosanitary, Fumigation, Certificate of Origin, APEDA RCMC and Halal certificates provided with every shipment worldwide.
Dominant in West Africa
IR64 parboiled is the primary rice variety imported by Benin, Togo and Ivory Coast — West Africa's top entry ports for onward distribution.
IR64 Available Varieties
IR64 Raw (White)
Milled and polished white rice — clean, bright grain with consistent length. Preferred by buyers in the Middle East, Southeast Asia and South Asian diaspora markets. Available in 5% and 25% broken variants.
IR64 Parboiled (Sella)
Steam-parboiled before milling — the highest-demand form for West Africa and Gulf markets. Parboiling enhances nutritional value, extends shelf life and gives the rice a firm, separate texture after cooking. India's #1 export variety to Benin, Togo and Ivory Coast.
IR64 Sortex Clean
Machine-sorted for maximum cleanliness, uniformity and zero foreign matter. Preferred by premium institutional buyers, hotel chains and food service operators requiring the highest grade consistency.
IR64 Broken Rice (D-Grade)
Broken grain separated during milling — widely used for animal feed, rice flour, rice starch and industrial food processing. Competitively priced for bulk industrial buyers in Africa and SE Asia.
