Abstract:
Rice is important staple cereal crop on which population of India so identification of nutrient rich is necessary to feed those population who heavily dependent on it. Biofortification of rice with multiple micronutrients could be best strategy to combat the nutrient deficiencies in developing countries. We determined the content of nutrient in dehusked polished rice grains in populary grown lines of rice crop. Nutrients content in different lines, Nitrogen ranges from27.94 to 16.82 mg g^-1, Potassium ranges from 1.24 to 0.54 mg g^-1, where as the content of potassium and phosphorous ranges from 0.33 – 0.06 and 0.57-.0.03 respectively.
