MTU 1262, also known as Maruteru Masuri, is a high-yielding paddy variety with a seed-to-seed duration of 140-145 days. It is known for its good tillering capacity, pest resistance, and potential to yield 40-60 bags (40-60 quintals) per acre. When processed, the brown rice is often preferred unpolished, meaning it is husked but not polished.
