The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) has approved a plan to improve the quality of rice distributed under the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana (PMGKAY) and other welfare schemes by reducing the proportion of broken grains in government-supplied rice.

Under the phased rollout, to be completed by 2027-28, the permissible broken grain content in raw rice will be reduced to 10 per cent from the current 25 per cent, while that in parboiled rice will be cut to 5 per cent from 16 per cent.

此举将提高通过公共分配系统 (PDS) 供应的大米质量。与此同时,消息人士称,分离出来的碎米(包含 100% 碎谷物)可以转用于乙醇生产。

“Since ethanol has become a contentious issue and the 100 per cent broken rice is likely to be channelled to the biofuel programme, the government avoided mentioning it during the regular Cabinet briefing,” a source said.

“For the first time in nearly three decades, the government has revised the quality specifications of rice supplied under the Public Distribution System, ensuring beneficiaries receive rice with substantially lower broken grain content while retaining their existing entitlements,” the Food Ministry said on Thursday.

Cost savings, higher revenue

该部表示,碾磨过程中产生的碎米将被分离并“有效地用于其他目的”。由于它将直接从磨坊主的场所进行拍卖,此举预计将减少运输、储存和处理成本。由于碎米将存储在 HDPE 袋中,黄麻袋的使用量也将减少。

这些变化预计将每年减少约 216.1 亿卢比的物流、存储和包装成本。该部表示,碎米销售收入将通过降低食品补贴负担提供额外的增长。
