Product description

This dryland-grown Kyeema rice is produced by Marlivale Farm in the Nimbin Valley of northern New South Wales. A fragrant Australian long-grain variety, is low starch and cooks into separate grains and is suited to a wide range of everyday dishes, but really shines in Indian and Thai dishes. 

About Kyeema rice

Kyeema is a long-grain rice variety developed for Australian growing conditions and has been cultivated in Australia for decades. It is known for its fragrant character and ability to cook into distinct, separate grains. These qualities make it well suited to curries, stir fries, pilafs and everyday rice dishes.

Unlike most Australian rice, which is grown under irrigation, this rice is produced using dryland farming methods that rely on natural rainfall. This approach results in a rice that reflects both the season and the growing conditions of the Nimbin Valley.

About the grower

This rice is grown by Marlivale Farm in the Nimbin Valley of northern New South Wales. The farm has been producing dryland rice since 2020, building on a family farming history that began when Frank and Andrea purchased the property in 1988.

Today, Sophie and Mac continue to develop the farm’s dryland rice production. By growing rice without irrigation, they are exploring an alternative approach to rice production that works with the natural rainfall patterns of the region.
