Basmati Rice

Basmati is a variety of long, slender-grained aromatic rice which originates from the Indian subcontinent, mainly in the regions of Haryana, Punjab, Sindh and many other states and provinces of India, Pakistan and Nepal. As of 2019, India accounted for 65% of the international trade in basmati rice, while Pakistan accounted for the remaining 35%. Many countries use domestically grown basmati rice crops; however, basmati is geographically exclusive to certain districts of India and Pakistan.
