Rice Fortification

Rice is a major staple food in many countries and an important source of dietary energy for large parts of the global population where consumption is high. Its widespread and regular consumption makes rice a valuable vehicle for delivering additional vitamins through food fortification.

Several technologies are available for rice fortification. Together with experienced partners in rice fortification, BASF provides high-quality vitamins and technical expertise to support the development of suitable rice fortification concepts.
