Origin & cultivation

Jawad Rice originates paddy, brown and milled rice for export. Pakistan is one of the largest rice producing countries, having annual production of more than 5 million tons In Pakistan; rice is grown under diverse climatic and edaphic conditions. Basmati predominates in traditional rice tracts of Punjab. In Swat at high altitude mountain valleys, temperate Japonica rices are grown. In the South of NWFP, Sindh and Balochistan IRRI type long grain heat tolerant tropical rices are grown.

The growth duration of the rice plant is three to six months, depending on the plants variety and growth environment

Processing
During the process of milling, the hull and various bran layers of kernel are removed, and the rice is polished to give the seed a white, glossy coating. Paddy fields are drained at harvest and the rice is then treated like any other small grain. It can be harvested manually or mechanically with a combine harvester. Extremely delicate raw materials are processed in the rice-processing mill, therefore the processes used are technologically very advanced, and their personnel highly specialised. These are indispensable conditions to ensure that the quality of the rice that come from Jawad rice is of the highest level.

About rice
Rice is unique among cereal grains in that the entire polished grain is eaten while other cereals are usually processed

before they reach the consumer. Grain quality in rice is, therefore, a very sensitive issue. Interests and priorities of different sectors of rice industry are different. Farmers are interested in early maturity and high yield that would give them high returns in the form of good produce and provide enough time for sowing subsequent crops including wheat. Miller's interest is high head rice recovery. Traders prefer attractive physical appearance (shape and size), whiteness and uniform grain size. For consumers, quality encompasses a complete range of visual, sensory and palatability criteria that include impressive appearance of raw as well as cooked rice texture in terms of stickiness/flakiness and appealing aroma. Rice grain quality depends on intrinsic quality of rice variety (appearance, milling quality and cooking characteristics), environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, rainfall) and management practices such as use of healthy seed; optimum sowing time; balanced and timely application of fertilizers; proper harvest and post-harvest operations, use of modern milling and polishing machinery etc.

Storage
Stocks of brown rice are stored in well-ventilated and spacious warehouses. These stocks are kept in most hygienic conditions remaining. During the period stocks remain in warehouses, these are subjected to regular inspection and fumigation from time-to-time against infestations by organisms. Storage is the process of keeping grains, whether in bags or in bulk, in a storage structure designed to protect the stored product from inclement weather and pests for a short or long period of time to await processing or movement to other location. Grains are stored for either of the following reasons : To provide uniform supply of food throughout the year, because grains are produced seasonally while consumption is fairly uniform throughout the year. To provide reserve for contingencies such as flood, drought and other calamities. The methods followed for storing the grains are : Storage in bags Loose storage Storage in bags is convenient for short term storage, where grain is intended for very early onward movement. For short term storage, no control measures against insects is needed. In loose/bulk storage method, large quantity of grains can be stored in per unit volume of space and the infestation of insects/pests is lower. The basic requirements of a good storage practice are: a healthy, clean, and uniformly dried grain, and a structure that will maintain a suitable environment that will prevent pests.

Delivery Time
By maintaining large inventory of stocks at all time in our warehouses with steady stream of available vessels, we can offer immediate deliveries to our buyers (even in off season). Thereby reducing the lead-time for our customers to avail the opportunity in their domestic markets.

Fumigation
We have our own arrangements to fumigate raw rice, Processed rice and containers (prior to load) properly As per international standard. Our mills have they own fumigation chambers, where rice is fumigated during storage and after final packing. Highly trained and experienced staff closely manages this process. Fumigation is the most effective and widely used procedure to eliminate the pests that cause damage to exported grain in either storage or shipment. Fumigation is also the method used to prevent foreign pests from entering the country through imported products.

Sanitary and Phytosanitary Standards (SPS)

All rice export must be inspected prior to loading according to the Ministry of Commerce, and Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives regulations. National Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (NAPHIS) complete phytosanitary certificate. The purpose of this certificate, is to expedite the entry of plants or plant products into a foreign country under the FAO International Convention : Plant Protection and Quarantine (PPQ). This certificate certifies to a foreign country that the plants or plant products described were inspected by the Pakistanis authorities and respect the Sanitary and Phytosanitary Standards (SPS) and are free from quarantine pests and other injurious pests of specific concern to the importing country.

Testing Laboratory
We have built a laboratory in each mill, which are well equipped with all measuring, and rice analyzing instruments. Our qualified Lab. Testers secures random processed rice samples and analyze in accordance with the buyers specification. We perform testing from raw rice to finished end product. Apart from regular sampling and analysis both at milling and processing stages, all lots prior to processing are subject to cooking test. Our laboratories are doing also research on plants and crops. They are also in charge of the application of the Good Agricultural Practices (GAP). From the seed to the market, the GAP provides practical solutions to help irrigation, boost yields, and improve grain quality and production efficiency.

Quality and Grading

Since 1970 we are in the rice business and have taken great steps to maintain the qualities of rice. We have incorporated different techniques and machineries to meet the international standard in rice production. We take intensive care in the hygienic processing.
Quality is strategic to our strength. We have a strong commitment towards providing homogeneous quality to our buyers, which is why quality management in the company starts at the grassroots level and continues till the product finally reaches the consumer. Quality control processes are religiously adhered to in order to ensure uniformity, which we achieve in three ways: Quality Control Through Procurements We select the best farmers. Our field staff constantly monitors paddy fields from sowing to harvesting. They advise the farmers on the correct application of fertilisers and pesticides to produce healthy grains of rice without chemical residue. After harvesting and husking, hundreds of samples are drawn from the fields and examined in our labs for final selection. After procurement, the selected stock is stored for aging till the rice attains maturity. All stocks are numbered and a record is maintained even after processing and export. Quality Control System Samples are drawn during different stages of processing and milling at regular hourly intervals and tested in the lab to constantly monitor the uniformity in whiteness degree, moisture content, average grain length (AGL), broken percentage and colour. Quality Control Through Grading & Colour Sorting The grading system consists of five graders installed in three different stages of milling and processing. This enables them to ensure uniformity in grain length and also control the broken percentage according to the specific requirements of our buyers. In order to obtain uniformity in grain colour, we have installed a colour sorter a computerized, state-of-the-art machine considered throughout the world to be the top-of-the-line colour sorter.

As countries reach self-sufficiency in rice production, the demand by the consumer for better quality rice has increased. Quality of rice is not always easy to define as it depends on the consumer and the intended end use for the grain. Grain quality is not just dependent on the variety of rice, but quality also depends on the crop production environment, harvesting, processing and milling systems.
