Hankaisk 429 is a variety of rice (Oryza sativa L.) belonging to the long-grain and mid-ripening types, cultivated in various regions of Russia, including Krasnodar and Primorsky Krai. It is characterized by high grain vitreousness, which ensures excellent technological and culinary qualities. The grain is semi-round, narrow, white in color, with a 1000-grain weight ranging from 26-31 grams, indicating its high density and quality. The variety is distinguished by its resistance to lodging and shattering, as well as high yield, which in some regions exceeds average figures by 2-5 centners per hectare.

Hankaisk 429 rice possesses good cold hardiness, high germination energy, and field germination, making it a reliable choice for cultivation in various climatic conditions. The plant stem is strong, of medium length, with short and convex nodes, while the foliage is characterized by the absence of anthocyanin pigmentation and moderate pubescence. The panicle is of medium length, yellow, dense, and awnless, which facilitates harvesting and reduces crop losses. The variety is also resistant to pyricularia and has moderate susceptibility to rice leaf nematode, which enhances its disease resistance.

Hankaisk 429 is widely used for the production of high-quality rice flour, which maintains its shape during cooking and has a high yield. Due to compliance with the requirements of GOST 6293-90, this variety is suitable for the production of baby food products and other first-class food products. Its high technological and culinary properties make it a valuable variety for agrarians and the food industry.
