Dellmati is a “basmati like” long grain rice developed at Louisiana State University, USA. It is early maturing for an aromatic rice and had a good yield at 8 1/2 pounds per 100 square foot bed. This is a lowland rice but performed well under upland conditions. The plants flowered at 73 days from transplanting in late May, and were harvested at 110 days – 125 days (early and later harvest) from transplanting. The plants reached a height of 2 1/2 feet and had no issues with lodging during periods of heavy rainfall. Dellmati is very aromatic even before cooking. Once cooked, the grains did elongate like basmati rice and had a wonderful flavor and aroma. Traditionally basmati rice is aged for at least one year to improve texture.
