The shrinkage of white, brown, and rough rice that may occur from commercial drying was estimated from volume measurements taken at high and low grain moisture contents. A 12.3% average volumetric reduction was found for the three types of rice. Data indicate the percent volumetric reduction in the rice hull may be less than that found in other parts of the rough rice kernel.
