Abstract: Development of brown rice food is of signality for increasing food supply of China and improving national nutrition and health status. Intensive research works revealed that the biotechnologies including genomic engineering and enzymatic technology are playing more and more important role in the process of brown rice food production. Great progresses have been made in fortifying the bioavailability of bioactive compounds,eliminating anti-nutritional factors and improving acceptable sensory quality.

Key words: brown rice food, food supply, nutrition and health, genomic engineering, enzymatic technology
