The accuracy in determination of rice constituent contents using a commercial near-infrared transmission (NIRT) instrument was validated. And the accuracy of measurements using this instrument was improved by modifying light filters and calibration equations used in the instrument. In the determination of moisture content, the coefficient of determination (r2) was 0.98, standard error of prediction (SEP) was 0.13%, and bias was -0.02%. In the determination of protein content, r2 was 0.90, SEP was 0.17%, and bias was 0.01%. These results show that the newly developed instrument is sufficiently accurate to be used instead of reference analysis for measuring moisture content and protein content of brown rice. An automatic rice-quality inspection system was designed. The system consisted of a rice huller, a rice cleaner, an NIRT instrument and a visible light (VIS) segregator. Based on rice-quality information, this system enables rough rice transported to a rice grain elevator to be classified into six qualitative grades.
