A grain born from the oldest civilisations on earth.

Kali Banga Ancient Basmati carries within it the memory of early agriculture - revived not engineered, farmed not manufactured.

Kali Banga is one of India's oldest known rice varieties - a seed that has survived over 5,000 years through the quiet, unbroken knowledge of tribal farming communities in Jharkhand. While the modern world chased yield and speed, these farmers simply kept growing what their ancestors had always grown - protecting a living seed that most of the world had forgotten existed. 

Amrit Krishi revives this ancient lineage through traditional natural farming practices and native seed preservation. Each grain is grown with the same quiet patience that has defined this variety across millennia - no hybridisation, no shortcuts, no compromise.

The rice is cultivated by Amrit Krishi Farming Methodology on red soil of Jharkhand naturally enriched by centuries of alluvial deposit, mineral layering, and traditional crop rotation - conditions that give Kali Banga Basmati its distinctively earthy aroma, long grain, and nutritional depth that modern commercial varieties simply cannot replicate. 

What you hold in your hands is not a product. It is a revival - of seed, of soil, of a food culture that fed the oldest cities of the ancient world. 

1. ~50% Rice Bran
Unpolished bran layer kept intact - the richest part of the grain, loaded with fibre, vitamins, and antioxidants most rice loses in milling.

2. Low Glycemic Index (Low GI)
Slow-release energy keeps blood sugar stable - ideal for diabetics, health-conscious families, and anyone managing metabolism.

3. Vitamins B6, B12 & E
Naturally present in the bran - supporting nerve function, energy metabolism, and cellular protection from oxidative stress.

4. Fibre-Rich Digestion
The intact bran layer promotes healthy gut flora, smoother digestion, and long-lasting satiety after every meal.

Processed gently. Never stripped.
No chemical polishing. No artificial fragrance. No shortcuts. Just traditional methods that protect everything the grain holds.

1. Harvest & Clean
Hand-harvested from native farmland. Paddy is cleaned with water - no chemical wash, no bleaching agents.

2. Sun Drying
Naturally sun-dried to bring moisture below 14% - preserving freshness without heat-based dehydration.

All Polished white rice in market has had this layer industrially removed.
