Packaged rice - Import export

Plastic bags: This is the most common type of packaging for pulses. They are lightweight, cheap and provide a good barrier against moisture and oxygen. However, they are not always the most environmentally friendly choice. Paper bags: These are a more sustainable alternative to plastic bags. They are recyclable as they can be made with recycled materials thus reducing pollution in the environment. However, they are not as effective in preventing moisture and oxygen from reaching the pulses.
