Kullakar rice
Kullakar rice
Species
Oryza sativa
Origin
Tamil Nadu, India
Kullakar rice is an ancient rice variety indigenous to and primarily cultivated within India. It is one of the red rice varieties that grow in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu, India.
Kullakar is drought and pest resistant, though it is susceptible to waterlogging and requires soil with good drainage. [1]
The rice takes between 100 to 110 days to grow to maturity and measures a maximum of 120 cm when fully grown.[2] Due to its short growth duration it can be grown all year long, though it is usually cultivated in the summer. [1][3]
