The look and length of 1121 from a quicker-maturing crop, at a friendlier price.

Available as

Pusa Basmati 1509 was bred to mature weeks earlier than 1121, which saves water in the field. The grain is long and slender, with a clean white colour and good elongation.

It is a favourite for buyers who want an extra-long basmati for everyday biryani and restaurant service without paying 1121 prices.
