Europe Basmati
Rice Market Expected to Reach $615 Million by 2023
Rapid growth in basmati
rice demand in Germany and Poland drives the market growth. owever, stringent
norms by European Union on the pesticides used for rice crops are expected to
impede the basmati rice exports from India. According to a new report
published by Allied Market Research, Europe basmati rice market was valued at
$491 million in 2016, and is expected to reach $615 million by 2023,
registering a CAGR of 3.2% from 2017 to 2023. In 2016, the Indian variety type
segment accounted for more than half share of the total market.
“Early buyers will receive 20%
customization on this report.”Basmati rice is specifically recognized for its
unique aroma, distinctive cooking properties, and two to three times more
expensive than other long grain rice. It is slender & extra-long grain,
which gets longer at least twice of its original size upon cooking. Basmati
rice is distinctive among other aromatic long grain varieties of rice, which
possess superior aroma, delicious taste, and distinct flavor. It is highly
utilized as a part of Indian and Pakistan cuisines and is also used in Persian,
Arab, and Middle East cuisine.
The demand for specialty rice,
such as Basmati rice, is rapidly growing in Europe with the increase in rice
consumption. Iran was the leading importer of Indian basmati rice; however,
recently in 2016, Iran has imposed a ban and price cap on the import, owing to
which Indian exporters are focusing on other markets. It provides price
benefits to several European countries to boost the basmati rice market in
Europe.

What can Villar do if she wants to stop
‘unli’ rice consumption? Studies show solution linked to addressing poverty
By InterAksyon
Published: June 15, 2017, 3:54 PM ( Updated: June 15, 2017, 6:25 PM )
MANILA, Philippines – After
setting social media ablaze with her call to ban the offering of unlimited rice
servings, Sen. Cynthia Villar on Thursday backpedalled and said that she had no
intention of legislating her concern on the health risk of eating too much of
the staple.
“I am not planning to make a law
banning ‘unli rice,’ not at all. I just voiced out my concern that eating too
much rice is one of the main causes of high blood sugar that leads to
diabetes,” the senator said.
“But, of course, I cannot prevent
people from eating unlimited amount of rice. It is their choice. It was just a
genuine expression of concern on my part,” added Villar, chairperson of the
Senate Committee on Agriculture and Food.
She cited that in other countries,
they promote a balanced diet consists of a small portion of rice and a generous
amount of vegetables.
“In schools in Japan, the
students even discuss the nutritional value of their meals for the day before
they eat. They also harvest the vegetables they eat from the garden in their
school. Of course, we want our children and children’s children to grow up
healthy,” added Villar.
Many Pinoy netizens didn’t take
lightly Villar’s position against eating too much rice and calling food
establishments to encourage people to eat more vegetables for them to have a
healthier diet.
Some claimed that the senator,
the richest lawmaker in the Senate, was being insensitive to the plight of the
poor, who frequently eat more rice with less viand or at times even without
viand to beat hunger pangs.
“I don’t understand the issue abt
#UnliRice.What’s wrong with that? These are budget meals for simple workers who
earn just enough or not much,” said netizen meg.arao.
“Want healthier Filipinos? Don’t
ban people’s unli-rice. Ban politicians’ unli-pork,” said another netizen John
Hendrix.
Poverty, eating rice: What’s the
link?
Meanwhile, others who are experts
in food security issues stressed that eating more rice is not primarily a
choice but is mainly linked to a consumer’s purchasing power and thus, if seen
as a problem, needs more comprehensive solutions and not just making calls for
restaurants to stop offering ‘unli’ rice to Filipino consumers.
A study done by the Philippine
Rice Research Institute (Philrice) titled Rice Science for Decision-Makers: Why Is Per Capita Rice
Consumption Increasing? pointed out that the increasing
population of poor Filipino families has something to do with the increase in
the consumption of the staple.
“(T)he lower classes and rural
people spend more on rice and have higher PCRC (per capita rice consumption
than the upper classes and the urban people. Poor families eat more rice than
the middle- and higher-income families,” the study noted.
In another study published in
2013 titled Estimating the Demand Elasticities of Rice in the Philippines, the Southeast Asian Regional Center for Graduate Study
and Research in Agriculture (SEARCA) also pointed out the relation of the
economic status of consumers to their rice intake.
“The primary consumers of rice
are the poorer sector of the economy, particularly the rural poor. Their diet
is predominantly based on rice, which they consider a very basic food item in
their food baskets,” SEARCA said.
“While this is also true for the
rich consumers, unlike the poor, however, the more affluent consumers have more
diverse food baskets as they consume more of other luxury foods like fish,
meat, fruits, and vegetables,” it noted.
“Their limited purchasing power
to buy enough rice as well as other supplementary foods for their family
worsens, resulting in malnutrition, food insecurity, and poverty,” the
organization further pointed out.
Improve purchasing power
SEARCA said that “theoretically,”
if the government wants Filipinos to decrease its consumption, it could do so
by “substantially” increasing the price of the staple “so that it would become
less affordable to the consumers, especially to the poor consumers, who are the
major consumers of rice.”
However, it said this measure “is
not feasible in reality because such a strategy will certainly worsen food
insecurity, hunger, and malnutrition in the country.”
SEARCA said a “more plausible
strategy is to implement differential policies that can effectively reduce rice
consumption but, at the same time, will not hurt the consumers, particularly
the poor.”
“Any policy that will improve the
purchasing power of the targeted consumers, primarily through price-related or
income-related policies, is expected to lead to a decline in rice consumption
of consumers and diversification of their diet in favor of other commodities,”
it said.
In past media interviews, food
security experts also stressed the link between weak purchasing power and
eating more rice.
“Rice is still cheap. Para mabusog, magkanin na lang [To get full, just eat rice],” said former Philrice chief Efraim
Rasco in a media interview in 2011.
Also, Rolando Dy, an economist at
the University of Asia and the Pacific, earlier explained that rice consumption
tends to go down as income goes up

PAKISTAN is one of those
countries that continuously experience natural disasters for last 10 years.
During this time period there have been 133 events resulting in more than
3823.17 Million dollars in damages, annual average fatalities of 504 people.
The problem with our climate is
not an issue of how hot or cold a day is, we have been experiencing highs of
42ºC -52ºC during the last week of May. The temperatures are expected to sour
throughout May and June. It is the associated changes with climate change that
should bear red flags for us. It is not just the heat waves, there is a major
shift in the timing of the four seasons, winter starts late, autumn and spring
are diminishing each year and there is one hot long summer for most of the
country. According to a report the heat wave period has also increased by 31
days during the years 1980 to 2007. The impact is two pronged; impact on
agriculture and affect on topography.
Although the economic survey of
Pakistan (2016-17) indicates an overall rise in agricultural output but there
is no denying that the potential is not fully realized. One of the biggest
stories from last year was about the fruit crop particularly, mangoes.
According to Pakistan Fruit and Vegetable Exporters, Importers and Merchants
Association (PFVA) Due to prolonged winter season, hail storms and strong winds
in Punjab, the collective production of mangoes can decline by 600,000 tonnes
from total estimated production of 1.8 million tones. Another major crop that
has suffered due to changing climate conditions is cotton.
Early monsoon in the months of
June and July and abnormal variation in temperatures over the past three years
particularly affected the yield of Cotton. Wheat and rice are concerned the
overall yield is also adversely affected, flash floods in the North effect land
availability. Sunflower showed yield reduction up to 25 percent at elevated
temperature of 10°C to 20°C beyond 2050. There is a risk that we might lose
crop like sugarcane and rice in future due to water scarcity and rising
temperature. There is a visible shortening of growing season length (GSL) for
wheat and rice crops and Basmati rice tract and this is as a direct result of
climate change.
The main topographical threats are majorly the changing monsoon and western depression, floods and siltation in dams and damage to canal system. Loss of biodiversity and heightened health risks such as strokes, pneumonia, and malaria and other vector-borne diseases, dengue is also a direct result of climate change. Some of the counter strategies suggested so far are “adaptive” farming techniques; cultivars is term used meaning short lag phase, deep root system, better management high input use efficiency, manipulation of sowing time and planting density is said to produce phenomenal results. Early warning system, continuous crop monitoring and forecasting using climate, crop and economic models can also be developed to improve conditions. Increasing forest cover is also the biggest solution to the weather problem.
We need to have better laws and
enforcement in place to preserve the forest cover we have particularly in the
Northern areas. Technologies such as providing artificial glaciers are also
proposed by come scientist to counter the risks of losing the glacier cover.
It is a threat and a very real one that is slowly taking a huge chunk away from our livelihoods our economy, an uninhabitable Pakistan is no good to anyone. Pakistan is not a big polluter but that is largely due a lagging industrial infrastructure.
It is a threat and a very real one that is slowly taking a huge chunk away from our livelihoods our economy, an uninhabitable Pakistan is no good to anyone. Pakistan is not a big polluter but that is largely due a lagging industrial infrastructure.
We cannot afford to be ignorant though Water
scarcity and associated agricultural and ecological impact takes away from the
country’s economy, all the losses in outputs have led to decreased national
income and increase in the import bill. Contribution to inflation is another
area that is yet to see serious research. Pakistan is lagging behind in coming
up ways to counter this threat; this requires an “operation” akin to the one
against terrorists.

EAT: Biryani offerings
- June 15, 2017 @
2:02pm
Biryani rice has been described as a dish fit for a king. Ewe Paik Leong samples biryani rice served in restaurants in the Klang Valley
1. RESTORAN BERIANI ASIF, JALAN WALTER GRENIER, KUALA LUMPUR
Tastefully-furnished, this air-conditioned restaurant is located
in an area where parking is a nightmare.
ADVERTISING
Ten varieties of biryani are listed on its menu. When my chicken
biryani is delivered to my table, its tantalising aroma wafts about my face.
Some mouthfuls of the fluffy rice are smothered by the aroma of
caramelised onions; a few others by the floral burst of cilantro.
Marinated with garam masala and other spices, the chicken pieces
fall off their bones with only a nudge of the fork. Rating: 5/5
2. HYDERABAD BRIYANI HOUSE, JALAN BERHALA, BRICKFIELDS, KL
Daily, chicken and egg biryani are sold in this no-frills
restaurant, and they are supplemented by vegetable and mutton biryani on
Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
My chicken biryani comes after a long wait. Some of the
long-grained fluffy rice are white while some are saffron.
While it’s first-class, the foreign workers falter in service,
so I can’t award full marks. Rating: 4.5/5
3. HYDERABAD RECIPES, JALAN PUTRA, KL
This restaurant offers the culinary hits of Moghul fare. It
serves eight types of biryani: fish, egg, prawn, chicken, mutton, tava, keema
and dum ka murgh.
A bowl of yogurt accompanies my chicken biryani. Slightly
spicier compared to several others in this list, the fragrant aroma of the
tri-colour rice can deodorise a patron with body odour!
It is also fairly fluffy. The juicy chicken is a happy marriage
of time-consuming marinating and perfect cooking. Rating: 4.5/5
4. MAK CIK BIRYANI, LEVEL 1, WESTERN COURTYARD, THE CURVE, PJ.
Several types of biryani are available such as vegetable,
mutton, chicken, beef, egg and prawn.
There are also side dishes of meat and seafood cooked in
different styles. My chicken biryani consists of basmati rice and two pieces of
chicken.
The tender chicken is densely coated with spices and sends a
pleasant jolt to my tongue. The rice holds together without being claggy and
seems to be heavy on cardamom, clove and cinnamon. However, its herbaceous
aromatics score can be improved. Rating: 4/5
5. JM BARIANI HOUSE, JALAN PRIMA SG 3/1, TAMAN SRI GOMBAK, BATU
CAVES
This is one of several branches of the Johor-style biryani
eatery headquartered in Subang Jaya. Choices include fried chicken, roast
chicken, ayam masak merah, beef, mutton and lamb.
The basmati rice is perfectly fluffy and every individual grain
is coated with fragrant herbs and spices bloomed in oil.
Two orbs of sour cherries turbo-charge the rice. However, the chicken
stumbles slightly. The spicing is rather flat, not vibrant and lively. Rating:
4/5
6. KOVAI SPICE, JALAN SS 3/39, PJ
The table tops of this restaurant are decorated with
black-and-white photos of scenes from India.
Menu listings include rice, naan, South Indian and tandoori
dishes. My biryani is served in a metal pot with a hard-boiled egg on top, with
the chicken drumstick tucked beneath the saffron rice.
The basmati rice unfurls with the aromas of cardamon, cinnamon
and coriander with every bite. The near-fiery chicken is culinary manna to
spice-seekers. Rating: 3.5/5
7. RESTORAN MAHBUB, LORONG ARA KIRI 1, BANGSAR, KL
Don’t be intimidated by the restaurant’s location in Bangsar as
its prices are affordable. The varieties of biryani listed on its menu are
honey chicken, fried chicken, curry chicken, kurma chicken, majura chicken,
mutton, beef and fish.
I try the honey chicken. The first bite of the chicken unleashes
a slight sweetish-spicy crunch which my taste-buds love. Second chomp on a
spoonful of the rice rewards me with a pleasant but not compelling taste as its
aromatics falter. Rating: 3.5/5
8. BIG SINGH CHAPATI, JALAN SS 15/5A, SUBANG JAYA
Expect furnishings to be spick-and-span as this is a new kid on
the block. The a la carte menu lists many tandoori dishes, including salads and
desserts.
Under “Briyani”, there are vegetable dum, chicken dum and mutton
dum. When my chicken dum arrives, I am taken aback as the rice looks oily. My
first mouthful of the rice reveals that it is moist, soft and oily, and the
spices blur each other out. Maybe this is the kitchen’s original recipe but it
does not tango well with my taste buds. However, the chicken is very delicious.
Rating: 3/5
9. RESTORAN TAJUDIN NASI BERIANI, JALAN HANG KASTURI, KL
In this rather stuffy, albeit air-conditioned, restaurant, fried
chicken, mutton curry, squid, quail, prawns, acar and vegetables are displayed
in aluminum trays. Customers pick what they want and pay later at the counter.
I come at 1.30pm and am disappointed that the plate of biryani served to me is
cold. Ditto for the fairly flavoursome chicken. The price is cheap but since
you get what you pay, standard rice is used, not basmati. This restaurant seems
to be popular with immigrant workers. Rating: 3/5
10. RESTORAN INSAF BARU, JALAN TUANKU ABDUL RAHMAN, KL
This eatery has been around since the 1970s and is now under a
new management. A motley array of dishes is listed on its menu, ranging from
biryani to otak goreng, kambing Mysore and murtabak ayam.
I order acar to go with my chicken biryani. Though the acar is
of acceptable standard, the spice-flecked rice is only two notches better than
coloured steamed rice. The recipe can be improved to produce a more
robust-flavoured biryani rice. Rating: 3/5
Self-financed co-ops can hike rice output
By Jasper Y. Arcalas - JUNE 15,
2017088
Self-reliant cooperatives are a
viable alternative to government subsidies to help farmers increase their rice
output, according to an expert from the International Rice Research Institute
(Irri).Dr. Peter Jennings, senior scientist emeritus at Irri, said the
government alone cannot fund agricultural improvements needed to increase the
country’s average palay yield to 6 metric tons (MT)per hectare.
These interventions would include
better farm-to-market roads, modernized rice mills, earthen dams to capture
rainwater where topography permits, credit for tube wells and low-lift pumps,
and subsidies to reduce electricity costs to run the pumps.
He said more trained extension
agents are needed to reduce the multiple deficiencies in crop management that
constrain yield.“These extremely expensive requirements are unlikely to be met
from government coffers. Capital from the farmers and millers is a better
alternative,” Jennings said in a report published on the international
magazine, Rice Today.
“To generate this, the Philippine
agriculture secretary would identify one or two rice areas easiest to impact.
His staff would select in each area a highly respected farm leader competent in
the management of people and finance,” he added.
Jennings, who led the team that bred
the IR8 rice variety in the early-1960s, said the selected farmer would be
responsible in convincing fellow farmers and millers in his or her area to join
a cooperative. The prospective cooperative members should also accept
obligatory taxes on each kilogram of grain harvested and milled output.
The money collected at the mills
would create the capital for investment in irrigation and other farm equipment,
Jennings said. The cooperative could also seek funds from international banks,
foundations and other sources.
“The cooperative would invest in
farm needs with the guidance of a board of elected farmers and millers. Success
in the pilot areas would be extended to the rest of the country through the
creation of additional farmer organizations,” he said.
“This proposal will be difficult to
implement, opposed by vested interests and subject to financial mismanagement.
Yet, self-financed farmer cooperatives are a viable strategy to increase irrigated
rice area to attain a national yield average of 6 tons per hectare,” Jennings
added.
The Irri expert said farmers could
also hike their yield if they would shift to a more efficient irrigation
system.“Farmers’ appreciation that water control is essential for profitable
rice farming clearly defines future needs.
The shift to water control can be
accelerated to reach a goal of 80-percent to 90-percent irrigated farming,”
Jennings said.“That alone would guarantee a national yield of 6 MT per hectare.
The strategy proposed to achieve this implies that progress will come more from
the farmers’ initiatives than from the researchers,” he added.
Jennings led the Irri team that bred
IR8 in the early-1960s. IR8 is considered to be the world’s first high-yielding
rice variety and first rice variety released by the Irri with an optimum yield
of 9.4 MT per hectare.

Vietnam's rice prices near 30-month high
on robust overseas demand, thin supply
By Ho Binh Minh June 15, 2017 |
04:34 pm GMT+7
Despite the
gain, Vietnamese rice prices are still around $40 a ton below Thai grain.
Rice export prices in Vietnam, the world's third-largest exporter
of the grain, have risen to $400-$410 a ton this week, the highest in nearly 30
months, spurred by robust buying demand from Bangladesh and the Philippines and
a domestic shortage of fresh grain between crops, traders said on Thursday.
The price hike should not hurt Vietnamese exporters as they have
enough in stock to meet existing contracts, but foreign traders seeking to buy
anew from the Southeast Asian nation may have to stay on the sidelines, traders
said.
Vietnam's 5-percent broken rice price
has risen around 10 percent since the end of May to $410 a ton this week, free-on-board basis, its
highest since November 19, 2014 when the grain was quoted at $410-$410, FOB
Saigon Port.
Thailand's 5-percent broken rice, the world's second-biggest exporter
after India, stands at $450-$460 a ton, FOB basis, which is making Vietnamese
rice more attractive, traders said.
"The market situation is like this: buyers want to buy, while
sellers are reluctant to sell," a trader at a foreign firm in Ho Chi Minh
City said.
The Bangladeshi government has
approved a rice import plan from Vietnam, including 200,000 tons of white rice
at $430 per ton and 50,000 tons of parboiled rice at $470 per ton, to help cool
domestic prices, the Dhaka Tribune said in an online report on
Thursday, citing government officials.
Bangladesh, the world's fourth-largest rice consumer, often buys
parboiled rice from India, but despite ample supplies in its giant neighbor, it
has turned to Vietnam thanks to lower prices, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture said in a report this month.
Agricultural production in Bangladesh has suffered heavily from
natural disasters over the past two years, including heavy flooding in April.
In late May, it signed a memorandum of understanding with Vietnam, under which
it will import up to 1 million tons of rice a year until 2022.
Traders in Vietnam said rice export quotations have jumped since
the pact was signed, even though no contract for the first 250,000 tons has
been finalized.
Last month, the Philippines, a key buyer of Vietnamese rice, also
said it would issue a tender to import 250,000 tons of rice in June to boost
stocks before the lean harvest season and in preparation for the typhoon
season.
“But given the price jump in Vietnam, the Philippines may not rush
its tender,” another trader at a European firm in Ho Chi Minh City said.
“Nobody wants to play the fool buying while prices are rising.”
Vietnamese rice prices have risen since farmers in the Mekong
Delta food basket finished harvesting their largest crop in a year, the
winter-spring crop, with output slightly down due to saltwater intrusion and
unseasonal rain, according to government statistics released in late May.
The crop's paddy output is estimated at 9.63 million tons, down
nearly 4 percent from last year, the government's statistics agency said.
Besides, with rice shipments picking up in recent months, stocks
have fallen.
Vietnam exported nearly 580,000 tons of rice in May, its highest
monthly volume since November 2015, the Finance Ministry-run Vietnam Customs
said in a report earlier this month.
Total shipments reached 2.36
million tons in the first five months
of this year, or 3.3 percent up
from a year ago, based on customs data. China alone has accounted for nearly
half of Vietnam's rice exports so far this year, up from nearly 40 percent in
the corresponding period in 2016.
Vietnam is forecast to export 5.6 million tons of rice this year,
up 10 percent from 2016, while shipments are projected to rise to 6 million
tons in 2018, the USDA said in its June report.
The report revised up India's rice exports this year by 5 percent
to 10.5 million tons, citing recent sales to the Middle East and Africa, while
it kept unchanged its 2017 projection for Thailand at 10 million tons.
Minister warns of action against rice price
hike
Thu,15 Jun 2017
The State government will take
action against those who try to inflate the price of rice, Minister for Food
and Public Distribution P. Thilothaman has said. He was speaking after
inaugurating Supplyco’s Ramzan Metro Fair at the Putharikandam grounds. The
Minister said that directions to take strict action had been given to the Civil
Supplies and Legal Metrology departments.
Legal measures would be taken too. Inspections had been conducted in rice shops and supermarkets recently. There were eight cases in Thiruvananthapuram alone. The prices of chillies, green gram, Urad dal, gram, and dal had come down significantly. Rices prices had increased, but had been brought under control, the Minister said. With drought damaging crops in Tamil Nadu and Karnataka, the two States had turned to Andhra Pradesh, leading to a hike in prices there.

NFA sets bidding for 250,000 MT imported rice
NFA spokesperson Marietta Ablaza said that the grains agency hopes to publish the invitation to bid on Friday for them to conduct the tender “as soon as possible,” noting that it would take 28 days to complete the entire bidding process alone.
“The [NFA] Council has already approved the TOR [terms of reference]for the bidding. We are just waiting for their resolution approving the TOR,” Ablaza said in a text message.
“Most likely if we can publish immediately or Friday, bidding will be conducted July 3,” she added.
Following delays due to internal politics and shady backdoor negotiations, Manila is now scrambling to fill up its buffer stock requirement of the grains with the lean months just around the corner.
The NFA earlier said that stocks at government-owned warehouses are expected to hit critical levels, with two days worth of supply left by end of June. This is well below the its mandated buffer stock requirement.
Traditionally, lean season in the Philippines starts in July and ends in September. It is also the time when the government imports rice that would help stabilize the staple’s prices in retail markets.
The state-run grains agency is required by law to have at least 15-day buffer stock at any given time, and 30-day buffer stock during lean months.
On Tuesday, the interagency NFA Council ordered the NFA to scrap the traditional government-to-government (G2G) scheme and shift to government-to-private (G2P) or an open tender scheme for a more transparent bidding process.
The council noted that previous G2G schemes were exempted from the Procurement Law, hence the NFA was free to make its own guidelines and implement the same.
“Such acts that are all below the radar of government rules and procedures. Thus, in effect the G2G scheme is tantamount to ‘self-regulation’ which, as we all know, does not work well when an agency is required to perform both regulatory and proprietary functions such as the NFA,” Cabinet Secretary Leoncio Evasco said.
Evasco, who is the chairman of the NFA Council, said that combining both functions makes the entire process prone to conflict of interest.He also said that delivery period of the G2P importation shall be in tranches, from July 31 until the last week of September.To date, only Hanoi has the capability to supply Manila with rice since other major rice producing countries have no newly-harvested rice, which is one of the requirements under the terms of reference of the open tender.
However, allowing staggered delivery of the rice stocks would allow other countries and private traders to join the bidding, making it more competitive.Meanwhile, Ablaza said the NFA has yet to open application for the private sector-led importation under the so-called minimum access volume (MAV), saying that they are currently focused on filling up government coffers to a more comfortable level.
The 250,000 MT of rice to be imported by the government is expected to add another eight days to government stocks; while MAV imports, which totaled 805,000 MT, translates to about 26 days.The NFA Council, however, clarified there is no immediate need for bulk importation for both NFA and the private sector, saying that total rice stocks in the country are still at comfortable levels with 44 days for household stocks and 28 days for commercial stocks.
A staggered arrival for
rice imported for both government and private sector would ensure that there
will be no oversupply of the grains come harvest season starting September, the
council said

Rice stocks fall to six-year low
·
Published
at 12:46 AM June 16, 2017
‘In order to avoid an untoward situation, the government has to remove
all bureaucratic tangles to facilitate availability of rice in the market’
The government’s rice stocks in
storage have fallen to the lowest in six years due to an insufficient supply
from the ongoing procurement programme, officials have said.The stock of rice
stands at 1,91,000 tonnes till June 13 which in 2009 stood at 5,46,000 tonnes
in the Fiscal Year 2009-10, according to the Food Directorate data.The low
storage has government officials worried who think that traders might cash in
on the situation by raising prices of this essential staple.
The price of rice has already
increased over the last two months which traders and millers attribute to the
loss of crops in the haor regions in the Northwestern region of Bangladesh.
Food experts estimate that the
total loss of paddy would be six hundred thousand tonnes in the wake of recent
natural disaster in haor areas.On Wednesday, after cabinet committee meeting on
public purchase Finance Minister AMA Muhith said the proposed import of
2,50,000-tonne food grains from Vietnam would ease local rice prices.
According to Commerce Minister
Tofail Ahmed, the imported rice will arrive at Chittagong and Mongla ports
within a short time.Usually, it takes at least two months for imports to arrive
from Vietnam.Asked about reduction of import duty, the commerce minister said
it is not possible to reduce the 29% rice import duty before the House approves
the next fiscal year budget.
Naogoan Rice Mill owner Nirod
Chandra Shah told the Dhaka Tribune that rice stock in the country will not go
up unless their demand for withdrawal of 29% import duty is met.“Why will rice
millers make their sales at a loss of Tk8 for per kg?” he asked.
The government procurement
officials are now requesting the rice mill owners to collect at least one or
two hundred thousand tonnes of rice to mobilise the current procurement
programme.
The price of coarse rice in the
capital was ranging at between Tk45 and Tk55 a kilogramme on Thursday, 5%-10%
higher compared to that a month ago.Former commerce adviser to the past
caretaker government and chairman of Power and Participation Research Centre Dr
Hossain Zillur Rahman told the Dhaka Tribune: “We are facing crisis in terms of
rice storage and price hike would hit the consumers.”
“In order to avoid an untoward
situation, the government has to remove all bureaucratic tangles to facilitate
the availability of rice in the market,” he suggested.Zillur termed it too late
for the government to import rice from Vietnam as it is in the middle of
crisis.It is not possible to intervene in the market with only less than two
hundred thousand tonnes of rice in the government’s hand, he said, adding that
usually, six to ten hundred thousand tonnes are necessary for market
intervention.
The Food Ministry has so far
procured 25,625 tonnes of rice till June 13.On April 15, the government set a
target to procure 700,000 tonnes of paddy at Tk24 per kilogramme, 8 00,000
tonnes of rice at Tk34 and Tk33 per kilogramme.The rice and paddy procurement
drive started from May 2 and will continue till August 31 during the harvesting
period.

Monsoon shows signs of fatigue, slows down
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, JUNE
14:
Ideally, one end (South-East) of
the trough should be anchored in the Bay waters so that moisture-laden
easterlies can fan out onto land to precipitate rains.The tip of the trough is
now over land, which means it is cut off from moisture in the Bay. This has led
to a reduction in the quantum of rainfall over East India.
The monsoon has not been able to
enter Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Odisha. These areas should
normally get covered by June 15, but indications are that they will need to
wait for a few days more.
Revival in a week
The India Met Department (IMD)
said on Wednesday that conditions are favourable for the advance of the monsoon
into parts of Gujarat, Madhya Maharashtra, Vidarbha, Chhattisgarh, Odisha and
Bengal over the next four days.
For any organised revival of the
monsoon, the trough over North India has to re-align itself in such a manner
that one of its extremities gets anchored in the Bay of Bengal. The European
Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts says it will take a few days for this
to happen. It says the monsoon flows over the Arabian Sea would strengthen
around June 20, indicating that the trough would have found its elusive
moorings in the Bay by that time.
Possibility of more rain
The US National Centre for
Environmental Prediction seems to agree, by signalling the possibility of
enhanced rain along the West Coast and East and parts of East India and
adjoining Central India from June 21 to 29.

Ominous signs as rice prices spiral
Published: 2017-06-16

·
The prices of rice are spiralling
out of control as the blame game between wholesalers and millers continues and
experts predict a ‘food crisis’ in the making.
Government
data often lower than market prices shows a 47 percent rise in the price of
coarse rice while a fine variety saw around 20 percent rise in a year.
Millions
of low-income people in the country are worst-hit by the price shock. Coarse
rice consumed by people with low income is now being sold at a minimum rate of
Tk 46 per kg.
The
fine variety is currently on sale at no less than Tk 60 per kg.
Last
three months were the worst period when people saw a steep rise in prices of
rice of almost all varieties.
An
agro-economist sees it as an ominous sign of a food crisis ahead, reminiscent
of price spirals during the army-backed caretaker government.
Prices
of coarse and thin grains rose to Tk 40 per kg and Tk 56 per kg respectively in
2007 and 2008 during the caretaker government rule. It was then recorded as the
highest price of rice since independence.
M
Asaduzzaman, a professor and a fellow at the Bangladesh Institute of
Development Studies or BIDS, says, "The prices had created panic at that
time."
“I
think we will face the same situation again.”
Boro
paddy cultivation in the country was hit hard by unseasonal rains and flash
floods earlier this year. On the other hand, rice production slumped in China,
Vietnam and India. A 28 percent duty levied on imports is also blamed for the
hike.
However,
the market was significantly stable during Awami League’s 2009-2013 tenure when
coarse rice was sold at Tk 30-35 and thin rice at Tk 40-42 per kg.
Bangladesh
is considered a food self-sufficient country.
“A
syndicate of millers and wholesalers has crafted the ‘crisis’ to sell rice at
higher prices. The government seems reluctant in this regard,” said
Asaduzzaman.
“I
guess mill owners and wholesalers have an ample stock of rice. It is
unfortunate that the government does not even have that data. The government is
neither monitoring them nor compelling them to release the stock.”
When
contacted, Food Minister Qamrul Islam declined to comment on rice prices and
advised bdnews24.com to consult the Directorate General of Food.
Badrul
Hasan, director general of the directorate, said the price soared as production
turned out to be low this year due to flash floods in 'haors' and adverse
weather.
He
hoped the rates would return to normal if the 28 percent duties charged on
import are withdrawn.
Glimpses of markets
>>
Coarse rice varieties -- Swarna and Paijam -- were on sale at Tk 48-50 per kg
and other low-quality coarse rice at Tk 46 in kitchen markets in Sheorapara,
Mohakhali, Rampura, Karwan Bazar, and Hatirpool. Traders retailed Miniket
and Najirshail at Tk 56-62 a kg.
>>
Babubazar-Moulvibazar in Old Dhaka, the country’s largest wholesale rice
market, charges around Tk 4 less than retailers.
>>
Wholesalers say they have no control over the rates.
>>
A Kushtia-based miller, for example, sells a 50kg bag of coarse rice at Tk
1,950 (Tk 39 per kg) and Miniket rice at Tk 2,600 (Tk 52 per kg) to Dhaka. The
rates have increased due to soaring prices of paddy, according to millers.
>>
Each maund of paddy is sold at Tk 1,200 which yields around 27kg of rice. The
production cost is recouped from sales of broken kernels and bran.
>>
In this Boro harvest season, the government is buying paddy from farmers at Tk
24 per kg and rice at Tk 34.
Depleting stocks
The
government had some 193,190 tonnes of rice in stock on June 12, compared to
593,020 tonnes on the same date last year, according to the Food Planning and
Monitoring Unit or FPMU.
Quoting
the Department of Agricultural Marketing, an FPMU report says the wholesale
price and retail price of coarse rice in the capital is Tk 45-46.5 and Tk 46-48
per kg respectively.
Between
May 2 and Jun 11, the government procured a total of 19,532 tonnes of Boro rice
from farmers.
Blame game
Wholesalers
claim the hike is nothing but the result of an artificial crisis created by a
syndicate of millers.
Unlike
in previous Boro procurement seasons, rice price has soared this year despite
the presence of new rice in markets, said Md Selim, proprietor of Shubho Rice
Agency in Babubazar.
Mill
owners are using crop losses caused by flash floods as an excuse to increase
the rates, he said.
Auto
rice mills are now the main source of rice supply. These mills are concentrated
in some districts: Kushtia, Sherpur, Chapainawabganj, Rajshahi, Bogra, and
Naogaon.
“Some
industrialists are controlling the rice market countrywide with these auto
mills. And the government is failing to keep the rates normal,” said Abdul
Jabbar, manager of Chowdhury Rice Agency in Babubazar.
He
identified three areas of concern leading to the current crisis: paddy
shortage, corrupt practices by millers and hoarding by unscrupulous
businessmen.
Mirpur-based
trader Wahiduzzaman said sales of rice jumped up to three times last month when
people stocked up with grains fearing a hike in June.
“One
customer who usually buys one sack of rice bought three. Mill owners took
advantage of the situation. Now sales of rice have dropped in Dhaka,” said
Wahid, owner of New Billal Rice Agency.
Mill
owners, however, put the blame squarely on the shortage of paddy production
caused by flash floods and inclement weather.
Tarek
Anam, marketing executive of Rashid Automill, said they were selling a 50kg bag
of Miniket rice at Tk 2,600 -- the highest on record.
“Rice
prices should be higher if you consider paddy prices,” he said.
M
Asaduzzaman of BIDS has suggested lowering tax on rice import to normalise the
rice market.
If
duties on rice import are cut down to 15 percent from 25 percent, costs will go
down, so will the prices, he said.
Badrul
Hasan, DG of Directorate General of Food, said: “The ministry was served with
recommendations in May to lift the import tariff. The government may take steps
in that direction.”
Bangladesh
spends $440 to import one tonne of rice from India, and another Tk 9 is added
as tariff per kg.
“We
believe removal of the tariff will lower the cost and rice prices will come
down once enough rice is imported from India,” said Hasan

Researchers at Ingredion Idea Labs develop Homecraft Create rice
flours
Friday, 16 June, 2017, 08 : 00 AM [IST]
Las Vegas
Researchers at Ingredion’s Idea Labs have developed a line of
Homecraft Create multi-functional rice flours that help food manufacturers
respond to the consumer demand for smooth, silky textures in clean label and
gluten-free products.
The development marks the first time manufacturers will be able to
convert to a highly desirable rice flour label, while at the same time
achieving the robust functionality, stability
and shelf life previously associated with the use of hydrocolloids, modified
starches and other ingredients not considered clean label.
The new range of ingredients will be available to food
manufacturers in the United States, Canada and Asia-Pacific (APAC) following
its launch at the IFT 2017 annual meeting and food exhibition, which is slated
to take place in Las Vegas, USA, between June 24 and 28.
The solution is an addition to a clean and simple ingredient
solutions portfolio that began to develop over 20 years ago. Ingredion invested
in growing this portfolio, as the consumer demand for clean and simple labels
grew.
Proprietary research conducted to understand the labelling
preferences of consumers in North America and the APAC region found rice flour
to be one of the most accepted common ingredients used in the food and beverage
industry.
Researchers found a significantly higher proportion of US and APAC
consumers preferred rice flour to other ingredients.
“Ingredion has been a pioneer in the clean label movement and in
understanding consumer attitudes and preferences towards specific ingredients
and claims,” said Daniel Haley, director, global wholesome business, Ingredion.
“The exciting development of Homecraft Create multi-functional rice
flours, leveraging our recent investments in APAC, reflects the continued
commitment of researchers working in this area at our global network of
Ingredion Idea Labs innovation centres,” he added.
“In Asia, there is a growing demand from consumers for quality food
made with familiar, trusted ingredients,” said Hui Cheng Chong, marketing
manager, wholesome business, APAC,
Ingredion.
She added, ”Rice flour has been a staple for Asian consumers for
centuries. Providing highly functional rice flours with added stability and
enhanced texture allows our customers to maintain authenticity in recipe
formulation and traditional eating quality across a range of convenience
foods.”

Coops a good
strategy to increase rice yield – IRRI scientist
BY BEN KRITZ, TMT ON JUNE 16, 2017 AGRIBUSINESS
Dr. Peter Jennings of the International Rice Research Institute
(IRRI) based in Los Baños, Laguna said that whereas high-yielding varieties
emanating from the IRRI had a sudden and large impact beginning in the 1960s,
yield improvement in subsequent decades has come largely from farmer
initiatives with little contribution from research.
Dr. Peter Jennings is senior scientist emeritus at IRRI, who led
the team that bred the renowned IR8 rice hybrid in the early 1960s.
INTERNATIONAL RICE RESEARCH INSTITUTE PHOTO
Less appreciated in the growth in yield is the investment of extra
income from these varieties by farmers in water control from low-yield,
high-risk ecologies to higher-yield, lower-risk irrigated rice from the 1970s
to the present, Jennings said.“This slow transition to roughly 50 percent of
irrigated farms today is the major contributor to the increase in yield from
about 2 to 4 tons per hectare today,” he explained.
Farmers’ appreciation that water control is essential for
profitable rice farming clearly defines future needs, he continued, stressing
that the shift to water control can be accelerated to reach a goal of 80 to 90
percent irrigated farming.“That alone would guarantee a national yield of 6
tons per hectare. The strategy proposed to achieve this implies that progress
will come more from the farmers’ initiatives than from the researchers,”
Jennings said.
To reach an average of 6 tons per hectare, farmers require many
improvements including better farm-to-market roads, modernized rice mills,
earthen dams to capture rainwater where topography permits, credit for tube
wells and low-lift pumps, subsidies to reduce electricity costs to run the pumps,
and a massive increase in extension agents trained to simultaneously reduce the
multiple deficiencies in crop management that constrain yield.
These extremely expensive requirements are unlikely, however, to be
met from government coffers, Jennings said.
“Capital from the farmers and millers is a better alternative. To
generate this, the Philippine Secretary of Agriculture would identify one or
two rice areas easiest to impact. His staff would select in each area a highly
respected farm leader competent in the management of people and finance,” he
explained.
The selected farmer would visit all the barrios in his or her area
to convince farmers and millers to join a cooperative and accept obligatory
taxes of a few centavos on each kilo of grain harvested and milled output.Money
collected at the mills would create the capital for investment in irrigation
and other farm requirements.
Matching funds would be sought from international banks,
foundations, and other sources. The cooperative would invest in farm needs with
the guidance of a board of elected farmers and millers. Success in the pilot
areas would be extended to the rest of the country through the creation of
additional farmer organizations.
“This proposal will be difficult to implement, opposed by vested
interests, and subject to financial mismanagement. Yet, self-financed farmer
cooperatives are a viable strategy to increase irrigated rice area to attain a
national yield average of 6 tons per hectare,” Jennings concluded.
