Tulaipanji Rice: West Bengal’s Aromatic Heritage Grain from the Dinajpur Region
The traditional home of Tulaipanji lies in the old Dinajpur region, today divided between Uttar Dinajpur and Dakshin Dinajpur districts in West Bengal. The rice is cultivated most extensively in Uttar Dinajpur, where local farming communities have preserved it over generations. IBEF identifies Mohiniganj in North Dinajpur as one of the places especially associated with the variety.
