| Tulaipanji is an indigenous aromatic rice landrace grown mainly in Raiganj sub-division of North Dinajpur district of West Bengal, India. The aroma and quality of this rice variety are strongly associated with its native origin.
| | }} |
| | |
| Tulaipanji is categorized as 'non-[[Basmati]] aromatic rice'. It has medium-long slender grain with an average length of 5.5 mm, length/breadth ratio of 3.4 and elongation ratio of 1.6. Cooked rice is tasty, good in texture, bright in appearance, non-sticky and [[friable]] due to high [[amylose]] content.
| |
| Tulaipanji contains amylose – 28.3%, protein – 7.3%. It has comparable quality parameters like 77.1% hulling, 65% milling, 54.2% head rice recovery and alkali value at 4.0.{{citation needed|date=September 2015}}
| |
| | |
| Traditionally, Tulaipanji is grown without using any fertilizer in mid-land to high-land condition and preferably in [[jute]] harvested fields, after rainy season during the August–December period. Low [[soil fertility]] and moisture stress generally prevail in the growing field and believed to be the key factor behind the aroma{{Citation needed|date = July 2015}}. Inorganic fertilizers are generally not used due to the reduction in aroma and other qualitative parameters.
