PO Boxes
Orders addressed to PO Boxes often incur additional costs and are ineligible for free shipping. To avoid delays or fees, we recommend using a physical shipping address whenever possible.

We do ship to Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and other U.S. territories.
Free shipping does not apply to most large or bulky items sent to these locations. Standard or custom rates will be calculated at checkout. Contact us if you need a freight quote for outlying areas.
Vendor-Fulfilled Items
Some products ship directly from our vendor partners. These will display accurate estimated ship dates on their product pages. Any concerns or delays with these items should be directed to support@buildasoil.com.
Freight Shipments
Freight shipping involves delivery of pallets via box trucks or semi-trailers.
By default, all freight is assumed to require liftgate service. If you do not need a liftgate, please notify us prior to shipment.
Inspect your freight order before signing the delivery receipt.
Count the number of packages and check for visible or concealed damage. Do not sign unless everything is accounted for and undamaged. Signing a receipt waives the right to claim missing or damaged freight unless noted at delivery.

Description
Description
We love this rice bran for soil building!
We purchase OMRI listed rice bran and it is excellent for building soil.
This material is very high in P and our most recent test shows over 6% water soluble phosphorous which is very hard to find in organics.
Another reason we offer this rice bran, is because its an excellent nutrient for making your own fermented fertilizer called Bokashi. Besides this rice bran, you will also need molasses, water, and EM-1.

Useful Info
The bran is the hard outer layers of cereal grain. It consists of the combined aleurone and pericarp. Rice bran is a byproduct of the rice milling process (the conversion of brown rice to white rice), and it contains various antioxidants that impart beneficial effects on human health. A major rice bran fraction contains 12%-13% oil and highly unsaponifiable components (4.3%). This fraction contains tocotrienols (a form of vitamin E), gamma-oryzanol and beta-sitosterol; all these constituents may contribute to the lowering of the plasma levels of the various parameters of the lipid profile. Rice bran also contains a high level of dietary fibres (beta-glucan, pectin and gum). In addition, it also contains ferulic acid, which is also a component of the structure of nonlignified cell walls. Occasional presence of weevils in rice bran can occur is harmless to plants and can even be beneficial when used in the production of bokashi compost.
How to Use
Bokashi:
The Original EM•1® Bokashi Recipe
To make your own EM•1® Bokashi (in this recipe) you'll need some bran (or some other dried plant material), some EM•1®, molasses, and fresh water. A 50-pound bag of wheat bran made into bokashi costs very little to make (including the EM•1® Microbial Inoculant, molasses, and bran). Organic rice bran and organic wheat bran cost more but are better because they avoid GMO crops and possible pesticide contamination. This recipe takes about 20 minutes from start to finish to make a 50-pound bag of EM•1® Bokashi. It needs to ferment for a minimum of two weeks and then is dried for long-term storage (up to several years). If you choose not to make it, you can purchase it ready to use.
