About this variety

IRRI-6 is one of the most widely traded long grain rice varieties in the world, developed by the International Rice Research Institute and cultivated extensively across the Sindh and Punjab provinces of Pakistan. Known for its consistent grain size, bright white appearance, and reliable cooking performance, it has become the backbone of rice trade across Africa, the Middle East, and South and Southeast Asia.

Unlike premium basmati varieties, IRRI-6 is valued for its practicality — it cooks evenly, absorbs flavour well, and delivers a soft, satisfying texture that suits a wide range of cuisines and cooking methods. This versatility, combined with its competitive price point, makes it the first choice for government tenders, commodity traders, wholesale distributors, and large-scale food aid programmes.

Ain International supplies IRRI-6 in volumes suited to both bulk commodity buyers and branded retail clients. Our processing lines handle multi-stage cleaning, whitening, and grading to meet the exact specifications required by each destination market — whether that is 5% broken for retail shelves or 25% broken for industrial use.
