The article evaluates the technological quality indicators of selected rice samples. The study determined grain translucency, bran yield, total milled rice yield, whole grain yield, and broken rice content, with the Sanam variety used as the standard. The results revealed significant differences among the samples in key technological traits. Some samples demonstrated total rice yield and whole grain percentages comparable to or higher than those of the standard variety. Variations in broken rice content were found to have a substantial effect on overall grain quality. The obtained results make it possible to identify promising rice samples with high technological quality for further use in rice breeding programs.
