Short-duration basmati sowing to rise, bumper crop eyed

Mint Hyderabad

May 15, 2025

India is set to strengthen its status as the world's largest basmati rice producer, with the acreage under short-duration basmati varieties expected to surge by up to 10% this kharif season (June to October)—a shift driven by better prices, faster crop cycles and rising export momentum.

"We are anticipating an increase in area of short-duration basmati varieties by 7-10% as farmers got remunerative price last year," said Satish Goel, president, All India Rice Exporters Association (AIREA).

Short-duration basmati varieties mature in 115-125 days—about 20-25 days earlier than longer-duration types—allowing farmers to save on input costs, better manage stubble, and grow an additional crop in between. This shift is expected to push India's total basmati acreage beyond 3 million hectares, further strengthening its lead in global exports.
