Market potential & Strategy

  Rice flakes are tasty flakes that are created using rice grains. The process for creating rice flakes involves parboiling the rice, then flattening the grains to product a solid flake. There are a number of rice flake recipes used in Asian cuisine. Often in western countries, rice flakes are used to create cereals and different types of snacks.. Once the rice is tender, the cooked grains are rolled, then flattened. The thickness of the flattened rice will depend on the amount of pressure that is applied. After the mixture is the desired thickness, the flattened rice is allowed to dry completely. The dried sheets are then ran through another rolling process to create simple flakes. At this point in the process, the rice flakes may be packaged for use as a dry cereal, or used as an ingredient in recipes for a side dish, or used to create desserts or even snack foods. Rice flakes are prepared from paddy. It is also popularly known as "Poha". It is a fast moving consumer item and generally eaten as breakfast item. With this background, the CFTRI developed a process for improved Rice flaking. The improved process has the advantage of increase in yield and better quality products, besides economic utilization of by-products. The kernel of rice can become cracked in the field, during the drying process, or during the milling process. Cracks are usually caused by moisture migrating too quickly within the kernel Often these cracks cause the kernels to break during milling and so broken rice is generated.  The side effects of junk food are gradually spreading among the consumers and they are looking for a safe alternative. Many types of harmful chemicals are added to most of the fast food/ bakery items as preservative, colour, essence and flavor. If the consumers have an alternative item without much compromising on shelf life and variety of items made of it, many customers will opt natural food items like beaten rice. Many delicious items can be prepared from it by adding jiggery, sugar, decicated coconut, milk, chocolate etc. It is very much tasty and nutritious to consume with tea and coffee. East, west , central and south India has a good market for this product. 20 % growth is expected in this sector. Therefore, marketing is not at all a problem at all.
