NORMAH AGRO FARM PRODUCE

Our Rice Farm

Rice is actually the seed of the grass species Oryza sativa (or Oryza glaberrima for African rice). Rice (a monocot) is normally grown as an annual plant. But in the tropical areas, the rice plants can survive as a perennial and can produce a ratoon crop for up to 30 years.

Rice is the most popular staple food and it is used in many different ways. A major amount or portion of sugarcane and maize crops are used for purposes other than human consumption. But rice is the most important grain with regard to human nutrition and caloric intake.

At Normah Agro Farm, we have an integrated crop management approach (water, soil fertility/nutrients, weeds/pests/diseases, and post-harvest processing) is vital to maximizing the productivity and profitability of our rice farm.
