In India, Red Rice varieties have occupied a special position since time immemorial. May it be the Yajurveda or the Buddhist scriptures, red rice has been mentioned as a medicinal and culturally important food crop.
Our Daangi Red Rice grown by farmers in the Palghar region of Maharashtra, is one such medicinal variety grown for generations while having lost its importance along the way.
