BIS Certification for Fortified Rice Kernels – IS 17782:2021
As part of India's mission to combat malnutrition, Fortified Rice Kernels (FRKs) are increasingly being promoted under major government welfare schemes such as PDS (Public Distribution System), ICDS (Integrated Child Development Services), and MDMS (Mid-Day Meal Scheme).
To ensure safety, nutritional quality, and standardization, the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has introduced IS 17782:2021 – a certification framework that will soon become mandatory for all FRK manufacturers and suppliers.
🔎 What is IS 17782:2021?
IS 17782:2021 specifies the requirements for Fortified Rice Kernels, including:
Micronutrient content: Iron, Folic Acid, Vitamin B12 (and optionally Zinc, Vitamin A, etc.)
Physical parameters: size, shape, density, color, and moisture content
Blending ratio: typically 1:100 (10g FRK per 1kg rice)
Safety and hygiene: No foreign matter, proper labeling, and microbial safety

✅ Why is BIS Certification Important?
