Native to Southeast Asia, this plant has been cultivated for centuries but remains relatively obscure in modern agricultural practices. Its genetic diversity offers potential benefits for crop improvement and food security. While it is not widely consumed as a staple grain, it holds significance in traditional farming and botanical research. Studying this variant may unlock new insights into rice adaptation and resilience in changing environments.
