Business Standard
|August 12, 2025
Beginning this kharif marketing season in October, millers in five states will be required to deliver rice with no more than 10 per cent broken grains, compared to the current Food Corporation of India (FCI) norm of 25 per cent, for procurement under the public distribution system — a move that will free 15 per cent broken rice for ethanol production.
The announcement was made by Sanjeev Chopra, secretary in the Department of Food and Public Distribution, Ministry of Consumer Affairs, on Monday.
