The apparatus includes a rectangular separating plate having upright front and rear walls and unhulled and hulled rice outlets formed on opposite sides thereof, respectively. The plate is adjustably supported in a plane inclined to the horizontal and is reciprocated in a direction transversely of the front and rear walls. Substantially two thirds of the surface of the plate adjacent its front wall is formed with first inclined projections inclined toward the hulled rice outlet, and one third thereof adjacent its rear wall is formed with second inclined projections inclined toward the unhulled rice outlet. Reciprocation of the plate causes the first projections to guide hulled rice toward the front wall and ultimately to the hulled rice outlet, and the second projections guide unhulled rice toward the rear wall and ultimately to the unhulled rice outlet.
