Disclosed is a process for producing rice from paddy. The process comprises a hulling procedure for brown rice, which includes procedures of dampening, and stirred debranning. The dampening procedure involves using a dampener (13) to add water accounting for 0.5-2.5% of the weight of the brown rice material to the brown rice material, with the water temperature being 10-60□ and after the dampening procedure, the brown rice is conveyed to the procedure of stirred debranning within 10 min to be processed. During the procedure of stirred debranning, the height of the brown rice is controlled to be 0.3-2 m, and a stirrer is employed for stirring and the linear velocity of the stirrer rod of the stirrer is controlled to be 1-6 m/s. The process uses a method of stirred debranning for debranning the brown rice, such that the acting forces on the brown rice grains are relatively small and uniform, thereby improving the removal rate of the hull of the brown rice and reducing the yield rate of broken rice.
