The effect of temperature on hysteresis of rough rice grown in Korea was investigated. The maximum hysteresis effect of Chucheongbyeo paddy rice at 5$^{\circ}C$ amounted to an average 1.7% moisure content. However, their values at $25^{\circ}C$ and 4$0^{\circ}C$ averaged 1.2% and 0.7% moisture, respectively. It may be suggested that the exteents of hysteresis are affected by the temperature of hysteresis are affected by the temperature of adsorption and desorption.
