ABSTRACT

During the present investigation efforts were made to study the grain quality of some short and medium grain rice grown in Seola Majra (SM), Pantnagar (SPC) region of Uttarakhand and Nagina (N), Siddhartha Nagar (SN) region of Uttar Pradesh. For this work nine medium and small grained lines of three aromatic rice varieties e. g Tilak Chandan (3047, 3048, 3051), Kalanamak (3216, 3219, 3327) and Bindli ( 3173,3192,3193) were evaluated in field as well as in laboratory and compared with premium Dehradun basmati 3020. The quality characteristics studied from consumer’s point of view revealed that paddy length ranged from 6.8 mm ( 3047) to 7.4 mm ( 3216 and 3219)kernel length ranged from 9.3 mm ( 3219) to 11.0 mm ( 3051) , elongation ratio ranged from 1.86 ( 3327) to 2.34 ( 3192) , amylose conc. recorded was from 20.6 % ( 3193) to 25.5 % (3219). The gelatinizing temperature was low in all lines except 3047 (intermediate) while aroma was strong in all lines except 3047, which revealed moderate aroma. The parameters studied from farmers/ traders point of view revealed that hulling percentage ranged from 78.6 % ( 3047) to 81.6 ( 3227), milling percentage ranged from 72 % (3048) to 75 % ( 3193) while panicle length recorded ranged from 24.2 cm ( 3227) to 31.0 cm ( 3216). From consumers point of view expect paddy length and kernel elongation all quality parameters of these line were near to premium Dehradun basmati 3020.
