Instead of adding nutrients after harvest, we work from the beginning of the farming process to help the plant access and retain higher levels of naturally occurring nutrients such as iron, zinc and protein. The approach integrates seed selection, soil and crop management, farmer protocols and testing at harvest creating, a controlled seed-to-harvest nutrition system rather than relying on fortification at the food-processing stage!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Better Nutrition","offers":[{"title":"1 kg","offer_id":49887898206436,"sku":null,"price":450.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/7525\/7828\/files\/2280.webp?v=1790241981","url":"https:\/\/betternutrition.in\/products\/kalanamak-rice","provider":"Better Nutrition","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
