Rice plant (Oryza sativa) on a hand
Rice plant. Blades of rice plant (Oryza sativa) seen in a hand. Cultivated rice is an annual grass which is derived from a wild Asiatic species. In the form seen here, it is known as paddy or rough rice and is similar in structure to wheat grain. Milling rough rice involves removing the outer coverings, seed coats and embryo using revolving stones, fans and rubbing. The remaining grain is then scoured and polished by rubbing on leather surfaces. The polished grain is finally given a coat of glucose and talc and is ready for market

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the delicate beauty of a rice plant (Oryza sativa) resting gently on a hand. The blades of this cultivated annual grass, derived from a wild Asiatic species, are seen in intricate detail against the backdrop of the human palm. Known as paddy or rough rice in this form, it bears resemblance to wheat grain in its structure. The process of milling rough rice is an essential step before it reaches our tables. This involves meticulously removing the outer coverings, seed coats, and embryo using various techniques such as revolving stones, fans, and rubbing. What remains after this meticulous procedure is then scoured and polished by gentle rubbing on smooth leather surfaces. To ensure its market readiness, the polished grain receives a final touch – a coat of glucose and talc that adds to its appeal. This stunning image captures not only the scientific significance but also highlights how food production intertwines with human ingenuity. Through Science Photo Library's lens, we gain an appreciation for both nature's wonders and humanity's role in transforming raw resources into nourishing sustenance. Let this mesmerizing print serve as a reminder of our connection to agriculture and the incredible journey that brings food from fields to our plates.
