Brown Rice Market Poised for Steady Growth Amid Rising Health Awareness | Outlook 2025–2032

Ready Meals Market

Brown rice is a whole grain rice with the inedible outer hull removed. This kind of rice sheds its outer hull or husk but the bran and germ layer remain on, constituting the brown or tan colour of rice. Brown rice and white rice have similar amounts of calories and carbohydrates. Between 72 and 82% of the dry weight of brown rice is starch, of which the majority is in the form of digestible starch. Brown rice therefore has the lowest protein and fiber content of cereal grains but the highest starch and carbohydrate content whilst its energy content is the second highest, after oats. Due to the low dietary fiber content there was a delay before the US FDA considered brown rice as a whole grain.

Global Brown Rice Market size was valued at USD 10.4 billion in 2023 and is poised to grow from USD 10.94 billion in 2024 to USD 16.41 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period (2025-2032).

These are usually preferred over white grains as they are rich in fiber, vitamins, phosphorus, selenium and magnesium. The consumption of the product is increasing due to the increasing number of people with diabetes and obesity. It is highly nutritious and considered a healthy food for growing babies and young children. Fitness-conscious consumers are on the rise. Packaging innovation, emergence of new brands and availability of ready-to-cook products will have a positive impact on industry growth.
