Whole Ragi (Finger Millet / Red Millet)

Welcome to Siya Agri Exports LLP, your premier supplier of the "Calcium King" of grains-Whole Ragi, globally known as Finger Millet. Native to the rich soils of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, Indian Ragi is revered as an ancient superfood that is making a massive comeback in the modern wellness diet.

We specialize in exporting Sortex Cleaned Ragi. Since the grains are extremely small (mustard seed size), standard cleaning often leaves dust and fine stones. We use advanced color-sorting technology to ensure our Ragi is 99.9% Pure, making it ready for direct sprouting, malting, or grinding into high-quality flour.

Why Choose Siya Agri Exports for Ragi?

The "Sortex" Guarantee

Ragi is notorious for containing fine dust and sand.

Our Process: We do not rely on simple sieving. We run the grain through optical color sorters to remove impurities that are the same size as the grain.

Result: You get a clean, dust-free product that won't damage your milling machines or spoil the taste of the flour.

Ideal for Malting & Sprouting

Viability: We source fresh crop Ragi with high germination power. This is crucial for buyers who want to produce "Sprouted Ragi Flour" (Malt), which commands a premium price in the baby food market.

Health Benefits

Calcium Powerhouse: Contains 10x more calcium than rice or wheat. Essential for bone health in children and seniors.

Diabetes Control: Low Glycemic Index (GI) and high fiber content help check blood sugar levels.

Natural Relaxant: Rich in amino acids (Tryptophan) that help reduce anxiety and insomnia.

Applications & Uses

Flour Milling: Ground into flour for Roti, Dosa, and Porridge.

Baby Food: The primary ingredient in traditional weaning foods due to its digestibility.

Brewing: Used in Africa and parts of Asia to brew traditional millet beer.

Bakery: Used in gluten-free cookies, breads, and muffins.

Logistics & Shipping
