Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the world’s oldest and most important grains, providing essential energy to millions worldwide. With nearly 80% of its dry weight made up of carbohydrates, rice is a vital source of nutrition, thanks to its rich starch content. Rice comes in three main varieties based on grain size—short, medium, and long—each suited for different culinary traditions and preferences.
At Ahar, we meet the growing demand for rice through our strong presence in West Africa and Asia-Pacific. We work with farmers, governments, and communities to make the global rice supply chain more sustainable and environmentally friendly. Together, we’re shaping the future of rice, one grain at a time.
