Bamboo Rice, also known as Mulayari is actually the seed of a dying bamboo shoot that is produced at the end of its life span. According to research, it is an important and major source of income for tribals living in the forests. The reason this rice is commonly not available is that it takes many years for an aged plant to flower from which this short-grain rice is extracted.
