Abstract
The Grain Inspection, Packers and Stockyards Administration (GIPSA) is revising the United States Standards for Milled Rice to establish and add a new level of milling degree, " hard milled," to the existing milling requirements, and to eliminate reference to "lightly milled" from the milling requirements of U.S. Standards for Milled Rice. These changes are being made to facilitate the marketing of rice by better aligning the standards with current processing and marketing practices.
