100,000 tons of parboiled rice
23.11.2017 | UkrAgroConsult
The government has decided to import
100,000 tons of parboiled rice to replenish rice stocks and rein in prices of
the staple.During a meeting on Wednesday, the Cabinet Committee on Public
Purchase gave its consent to importing the rice through an open tender.Emerging
from the meeting, Additional Secretary to Cabinet Division Mostafizur Rahman
told reporters that six local traders would import 100,000 tons of rice at a
cost of Tk427.27 crore according to terms stipulated by the Ministry of Food.
Each ton will cost $442 to $462, he
said, adding that the consignment of rice is expected to reach Chittagong and
Mongla ports within two months.The six local rice traders are Mahabub Brothers
Pvt Ltd, Aynul Haque Traders, Pubali Traders Ltd, M/S Sumon Flour Mills, M/S
Shely Traders, and Biswas Trading and Construction.The country is currently
facing a shortfall of 1.5 million tons of rice as massive amounts of crops were
washed away during the recent flooding in different districts.
To refill the stocks and ease the
upward pricing pressure, the Food Ministry had taken steps to import 900,000
tonnes of rice, said Food Secretary Md Kaikobad Hossain.The ministry’s data
shows that the country’s rice stock hit a five-year low at 193,000 tons in
June.The stock on November 14, however, rose to 411,000 tons
Iran temporarily removes ban on rice import
22.11.2017
Iranian Ministry of Industry, Mine and Trade has issued a decree
for removing the ban on rice import from Nov. 22.According to the decree, rice
import will be free for 7 months.All rice importers must provide needed
obligations for clearance of the imported rice before July 22, 2018.The Iranian
government bans rice import annually with only a few months of break to support
domestic products. The Iranian government implements 26 percent customs duty
for rice import.The annual consumption of rice in Iran is three million tons
and each Iranian averagely consumes about 38 kilograms of rice per year.It
appears that the high output of rice this year has caused confusion among the
importers as about 1.8 million tons of rice was imported into the country. This
is while the country's total imports of rice over the last two years stood at
1.5 million tons.
According to Iran's Customs Administration, the country imported $995 million worth of rice over the first half of the current year, indicating a surge of 109 percent in value terms.

Govt to buy rice from pvt importers
Okays open tender for 1 lakh tonnes
Staff
Correspondent
Desperate to
boost the stock, the government is going to import rice through local traders
after an initiative to bring in the staple from Cambodia through state-to-state
arrangement has failed recently. The cabinet committee on purchase
yesterday approved a proposal for importing 1 lakh tonnes of rice through open
tender for Tk 42,250 to Tk 43,725 per tonne.
According to food ministry documents, local traders will import
the rice from India, Thailand, Pakistan and Vietnam and deliver it to 46
government silos across the country in several lots.
There would be 1,000 to 3,000 tonnes of rice in each lot.
Last month, the same committee had approved another proposal
for importing 1 lakh tonnes of the staple which would reach 38 government
silos by traders. The price was set at Tk 43,440 to Tk 44,330 per tonne.
Import of another 1 lakh tonnes of rice is in the pipeline and the
government has already opened tenders in this regard, show the ministry
website.
In August this year, an initiative was taken for the import of 2.5
lakh tonnes of rice from Cambodia. A Reuters report on November 14, however,
said Bangladesh cancelled the deal over a delay in shipments.
"We had to terminate the deal as they failed to supply the
rice on time," Badrul Hasan, the head of Bangladesh's state grain buyer,
told Reuters.
The government is desperately trying to replenish its depleted
stock through imports after production was hit by flash floods and fungal
attacks.
Despite deals with several rice exporting countries, including
Vietnam, India, Thailand and Myanmar, Bangladesh is still battling to increase
its reserves, with rice imports set to hit their highest levels in a decade.
The import of rice at both government and private levels have
picked up lately. From July 1 to November 14, a total of 17.24 lakh tonnes of
rice was imported. Of the quantity, 4.05 lakh tonnes was brought in by the
government.
It did not have to import any rice last fiscal year. However,
13.32 lakh tonnes of the staple came through the private sector.
Till now, the cabinet committee has approved proposals for import
of around 12 lakh tonnes of rice through state-to-state arrangement and
international bidder via open tender.
The government has also decided to import 20 lakh tonnes of food
grains -- 15 lakh tonnes of rice and 5 lakh tonnes of wheat -- this fiscal
year. This is 11 lakh tonnes more than the government's earlier projected food
import volume.
As the rice production was hampered by the floods and fungal
attack, prices skyrocketed and went beyond Tk 50 per kg for coarse rice. The
prices, however, have fallen slightly in recent times.
As per a food ministry report, coarse rice was sold at Tk 42 to Tk
44 per kg last week. It was below Tk 35 one year back.
NO MAJOR
SHORTFALL OF FOODGRAIN: PM
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday in parliament ruled out any
possibility of major shortfall of foodgrain production in the country despite
floods causing damage to crops to some extent.
"We're always active to achieve the target of food
production," she said reading out a scripted answer.
She said 3.88 crore tonnes of granular foodgrains (rice, wheat and
maize) were produced in fiscal 2016-17.
The PM said the government has taken various programmes for the
assistance of the affected farmers. She said a Tk 117 crore special agriculture
rehabilitation programme has been undertaken for the farmers of the six
districts of haor region, who were hit hard by floods, excessive rains and
onrush of hilly water.
According to Bangladesh Bureau of Statistics data, the country's
rice production last fiscal year was 9 lakh tonnes less than that of the
previous year and on November 14 this year, the total food stock stood at 6.8
lakh metric tonnes, including 4.11 lakh metric tonnes of rice. On the same date
last year, the stock was 8 lakh metric tonnes, including five lakh metric
tonnes of rice.

The rise of the branded rice
06:32 PM November 23, 2017
A quiet revolution has taken
place in the supermarket in the last two decades. Sunnywood Superfoods Corp., a
local company, has greatly influenced the way Filipinos buy their rice, a
staple food that most of us can’t do without in our regular meals (and even
during meriendas!).
Established in September
1997, bannered by its flagship brand Harvester’s, Sunnywood introduced its rice
to Filipinos in the supermarkets thru the launch of several varieties of white
rice. Filipinos usually buy their rice in the wet markets and the neighbourhood
sari-sari stores but Sunnywood has helped change that by riding on the growing
acceptance and reach of the supermarkets and malls with its branded rice.

“Through the years, Filipinos
have embraced supermarkets and malls. They are convenient, comfortable, safe
and make available almost everything under one roof. In fact, they have
become a way of life. It makes good sense to engage the supermarkets,” says
Romeo Ong, president of Sunnywood, which is celebrating its 20 years this
month.“We are in lockstep with the growth of the supermarkets,” Ong adds. “As
they expand, we expand with them to efficiently service the needs of their
customers. Meantime, our market grows as a result.”
And why branded rice? “To
have a successful brand, you need to earn the trust and confidence of the
consumers. We believe we have done that through consistently providing
good quality rice over time. That same trust and confidence also define
our relationship with our customers – supermarkets, restaurants, etc. – and our
suppliers. We treat them with utmost respect.”
A Family Affair
A graduate of the De La Salle
University in 1976 with degrees in AB Economics and BS Business Administration,
Ong has always been drawn to agribusiness. “It’s a confluence of
circumstances,” Ong says when asked why his company ventured into rice
distribution. “At that time, my wife’s family was already in the rice business.
Her support and encouragement was overwhelming. Also, the major supermarket
chains in the country were just starting to hit their stride in their
expansion. The timing was right. Everything was lined up. It was not a
hard decision to make.”
Sunnywood, a company name
chosen because it evokes nature, agriculture and joy, started as a single
proprietorship in September 1997 with just 9 items under Harvester’s. It
was incorporated in 2007. Two more brands followed in quick succession:
Jordan Farms and Farm Boy and with them the product range increased to
about 50 SKU’s.
The Jordan Farms brand supplies
healthy (black, red and brown) and specialty (Basmati and glutinous) rice to
supermarkets. Farm Boy, on the other hand, is good rice made accessible to all
Pinoy families with its lower price range.

Sunnywood is not involved
directly in rice farming, instead it carefully sources its rice from farmers,
millers, traders, importers and cooperatives. Over the years, it has actively
helped local rice farmers penetrate the market and thereby help improve their
economic lot. It is also actively supporting the organic growing of rice.
A sampling of Sunnywood’s
popular rice products:
∙ Harvester’s
Dinorado is one of the best dinorado rice in the country. It is locally
produced, naturally aromatic, especially when cooked, and is deliciously
sticky. It is the local alternative to the Japanese rice and is also good for
congee, arroz caldo and champorado.
∙ Harvester’s
Thai Jasmine is known for its superior all-around taste and texture, and is
ideal for most rice dishes and occasions.
∙ Harvester’s
Sinandomeng. One of the most popular items in Harvester’s line-up of
rice, this is the everyday, any-occasion rice for the Filipino family.
∙ Jordan
Farms Black Rice. Among the line-up of healthy, unpolished rice, this
naturally grown black rice contains more antioxidants than the other varieties. It is
also a good source of fiber, multivitamin B, essential oils, minerals, iron,
among others.
Philippine Pride
Looking towards the future,
Sunnywood aims to further strengthen its hold in the market. “For the
local market, we want to make our presence felt all over the Philippines. Right
now, we are strong in Luzon and some Vis-Min (Visayas and Mindanao) areas, but
our presence needs to be projected into many other areas of the country. We
want to have a strong presence nationally,” Ong says.
“We are looking into exporting
our products very actively as we go forward. We really like to see our products
out there in the other countries. To show the flag, so to speak. That
will be another source of pride for the Philippines. I hope we can do that in
the near future,” Ong says.The company has already done “small test marketing”
overseas and has received interest from the Middle East, United States, Canada,
among other countries.
With the popularity of the
internet in the country that spurred online marketing, the company is also planning
to take advantage of the convenience offered by the web. Sunnywood aims
to make its products available online so that those who cannot go to the
supermarket can simply order and have their favourite rice delivered to their
doorsteps. “That’s in our wish list,” Ong says. “But our core market will
always be the supermarkets. We have a very good relationship with them. It’s a
win-win for everyone – the farmers, the suppliers, the distributors, and the
consumers. That will stay.”
Sunnywood is building a new
office/warehouse to boost its capabilities, improving its processes and further
enhancing the quality of its products. “We are always looking to improve
the quality of our products as we want to make our rice attain export-quality
level for the Harvester’s and Jordan Farms brands.”
Rice, Rice and More Rice
“When people ask me what
businesses I am into, I say: rice, rice and more rice,” Ong says in jest.
“Would I venture into other related business lines? If the opportunity presents
itself, I will think about it. But Sunnywood will always be associated with the
Filipino’s staple food.
“Do I have anything to add?
Yes. I firmly believe that the rice makes the meal. That’s why our
slogan from the very beginning has been ‘The secret to a great meal is still
great-tasting rice.’ Ultimately, the consumers decide. And knowing that
consumers have remained loyal to our brands and have made them their own,
nothing beats that feeling. It’s all worth it then.” ADVT

Chandrababu Naidu said on Wednesday that he was ready to implement ideas thrown
up from the brainstorming sessions at the India Rice Conclave from the
forthcoming Rabi season. He was speaking after inaugurating the conclave that
is aimed strengthening rice production and processing for food security.
Mr
Naidu has appealed to scientists and agricultural officials to develop
different varieties of paddy crops to get more yield and make more profit for
the farmer.
Stating that the government had interlinked the Godavari and Krishna rivers, which he called historic, he said the government was concentrating on agriculture so that farmers can benefit.

Bid
to boost paddy output:
Experts
are working on methods to increase paddy yield in areas where it was low, and
ways to divert surplus areas to different varieties to get more profit,” said
scientist N.D.R.K. Sarma, co-ordinator for agriculture department. He told this
newspaper on the sidelines of the India Rice Conclave that the average yield
per hectare was 51.98 bags, and was grown on 23 lakh hectares. Scientists are
studying how to grow associated crops with paddy and how to market them to get
more profit for farmers.
Dr
Sarma said varieties which have demand in other countries can be produced in
AP. But such crops must be limited to areas where there is surplus production.
He has explained that developing a special variety of rice for diabetic people is not necessary. Instead of making the paddy with less glycol, people can minimise the intake, he said. Dr Sarma said, “We have to identify lands where the production is less. and provide remedies to increase yield.”

Nigeria inching
closer to achieving self-sufficiency in rice
Lai Mohammed ON NOVEMBER 22,
20176:18 PMIN
The
Administration of President Muhammadu Buhari has drastically cut rice
importation and moved Nigeria very close to achieving self-sufficiency in rice,
a major staple food in the country, in just two years, the Minister of
Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said. The Minister of
Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, addressing a press conference on
the giant stride of the Buhari Administration in rice production …in Abuja on
Wednesday.
Addressing
a press conference in Abuja on Wednesday, the Minister – quoting figures from
the Thailand Rice Exporters Association – said rice importation from Thailand,
which supplies the bulk of the parboiled rice being imported into Nigeria,
dropped from 644,131 Metric Tonnes to about 21,000 MT between September 2015
and September 2017. ”We are happy to tell Nigerians of a giant stride made by
the Administration in the agriculture sector, specifically rice production:
Nigeria is inching closer to achieving self-sufficiency in rice, due to the
success recorded by the Administration in the local production of rice,” he
said. Alhaji Mohammed said that as a result of the Administration’s success in
local production, some investors from Thailand have even shown interest in
establishing rice milling plants in Nigeria, a development he said would
further boost rice production in Nigeria.
”A few years ago, this (Thai investors
establishing rice mills in Nigeria) would not have been possible since Nigeria
was not considered a top rice producing country. Today, Nigeria is one of the
largest producers of rice,” he said. The Minister said the increase in rice
production across the country did not happen by accident, but was largely due
to the Anchor Borrowers’ Programme, initiated by President Muhammadu Buhari to
support farmers through inputs distribution and loans to boost rice production,
and the Presidential Fertilizer Initiative, among others. He said the increased
rice production has, in turn, led to the establishment of rice mills, including
the 120,000MT WACOT Mill in Kebbi and the 1,000,000MT Dangote Rice Mill. Alhaji
Mohammed said with the Administration targetting rice
production of 7 million MT by 2018, the country was closer than
ever to achieving self-sufficiency in rice, going by the fact that as at 2015,
rice demand in the country was 6.3 million MT. He said the increased production
was bound to force down the price of locally-produced rice and provide succour
to Nigerians. The press conference was the latest in a series initiated by the
Minister of Information and Culture to highlight the achievements of the Buhari
Administration.

Desperate to
boost the stock, the government is going to import rice through local traders
after an initiative to bring in the staple from Cambodia through state-to-state
arrangement has failed recently.
The cabinet committee on purchase
yesterday approved a proposal for importing 1 lakh tonnes of rice through open
tender for Tk 42,250 to Tk 43,725 per tonne.
According to food ministry
documents, local traders will import the rice from India, Thailand, Pakistan
and Vietnam and deliver it to 46 government silos across the country in several
lots.
There would be 1,000 to 3,000
tonnes of rice in each lot.
Last month, the same committee had
approved another proposal for importing 1 lakh tonnes of the staple which
would reach 38 government silos by traders. The price was set at Tk 43,440 to
Tk 44,330 per tonne.
Import of another 1 lakh tonnes of
rice is in the pipeline and the government has already opened tenders in this
regard, show the ministry website.
In August this year, an initiative
was taken for the import of 2.5 lakh tonnes of rice from Cambodia. A Reuters
report on November 14, however, said Bangladesh cancelled the deal over a delay
in shipments.
"We had to terminate the deal
as they failed to supply the rice on time," Badrul Hasan, the head of
Bangladesh's state grain buyer, told Reuters.
The government is desperately
trying to replenish its depleted stock through imports after production was hit
by flash floods and fungal attacks.
Despite deals with several rice
exporting countries, including Vietnam, India, Thailand and Myanmar, Bangladesh
is still battling to increase its reserves, with rice imports set to hit their
highest levels in a decade.
The import of rice at both
government and private levels have picked up lately. From July 1 to November
14, a total of 17.24 lakh tonnes of rice was imported. Of the quantity, 4.05
lakh tonnes was brought in by the government.
It did not have to import any rice
last fiscal year. However, 13.32 lakh tonnes of the staple came through the
private sector.
Till now, the cabinet committee has
approved proposals for import of around 12 lakh tonnes of rice through
state-to-state arrangement and international bidder via open tender.
The government has also decided to
import 20 lakh tonnes of food grains -- 15 lakh tonnes of rice and 5 lakh
tonnes of wheat -- this fiscal year. This is 11 lakh tonnes more than the
government's earlier projected food import volume.
As the rice production was hampered
by the floods and fungal attack, prices skyrocketed and went beyond Tk 50 per
kg for coarse rice. The prices, however, have fallen slightly in recent times.
As per a food ministry report,
coarse rice was sold at Tk 42 to Tk 44 per kg last week. It was below Tk 35 one
year back.
NO MAJOR
SHORTFALL OF FOODGRAIN: PM
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina
yesterday in parliament ruled out any possibility of major shortfall of
foodgrain production in the country despite floods causing damage to crops to
some extent.
"We're always active to
achieve the target of food production," she said reading out a scripted
answer.
She said 3.88 crore tonnes of
granular foodgrains (rice, wheat and maize) were produced in fiscal 2016-17.
The PM said the government has
taken various programmes for the assistance of the affected farmers. She said a
Tk 117 crore special agriculture rehabilitation programme has been undertaken
for the farmers of the six districts of haor region, who were hit hard by
floods, excessive rains and onrush of hilly water.
According to Bangladesh Bureau of
Statistics data, the country's rice production last fiscal year was 9 lakh
tonnes less than that of the previous year and on November 14 this year, the
total food stock stood at 6.8 lakh metric tonnes, including 4.11 lakh metric
tonnes of rice. On the same date last year, the stock was 8 lakh metric tonnes,
including five lakh metric tonnes of rice.

Azerbaijan
invites Pakistani businessmen to start production of pharmaceuticals in FTZ
22 November 2017 15:48

By Sara Israfilbayova
Ambassador of Azerbaijan in Pakistan Ali Alizada has invited the
members of Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry to set up various
facilities, particularly in the pharmaceutical sphere, at Azerbaijan’s Free
Trade Zone (FTZ) in Baku.
The Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry said in a message
that the pharmaceutical products cannot only be supplied to the Azerbaijani
market but also to other countries as there is huge demand for pharmaceutical
products in the region, he said.
He also touched upon the possibility of developing business ties
among entrepreneurs on the supplies of rice and textiles to Azerbaijan and
strawberries, grapes and pomegranates to Pakistan.
Earlier, Pakistani Ambassador to Baku Saeed Khan Mohmand said that
several pharmaceutical companies currently eye partnership with Azerbaijan.
He stressed that Pakistan's pharma industry is quite huge and owns
modern technologies, further mentioning that Azerbaijan can also import
surgical goods and medical instruments from Pakistan.
Pakistan has a very vibrant pharma industry, with about 400
pharmaceutical manufacturing units including those operated by 25
multinationals present in the country. The Pakistan Pharmaceutical Industry
meets around 70 percent of the country’s demand of Finished Medicine.
President Ilham Aliyev signed a decree on March 17, 2016, on
measures to create a Free Trade Zone type special economic area covering the
territory of the Baku International Sea Trade Port in the Alat township of
Baku’s Garadagh district.
FTZ is expected to bring up to $1 billion just in the first few
years. Special tax and customs policy, which will be pursued in the territory
of the free trade zone will also stipulate further development and
simplification of a number of procedures.
FTZ will be located within the grounds of the new port, covering
an area of 100 hectares. Since the new port is being built at the major railway
juncture connecting the North-South and the East-West railway lines in
Azerbaijan, FTZ will also have rail access. Serving as a multimodal transit
logistics hub, the new port and FTZ will become a major consolidation and
distribution centre in Central Eurasia that provides a wide range of value
added services.
Pakistan and Azerbaijan have friendly and warm relations
characterized by common views on major global and regional issues.
Bilateral relations between Pakistan and Azerbaijan are constantly
on the move. Exchange of visits of Azerbaijan and Pakistani leaders as well as
the other high level delegations played a pivotal role in cementing the links
between the countries.
The trade turnover between the countries amounted to $7.34 million
in January-October 2017. Almost $5.7 million fells on the import of Pakistani
products, according to Azerbaijan’s State Customs Committee.

Temporary Ban on Rice Imports Removed
22.11.2017
The temporary ban on rice imports has been lifted from Nov. 22
up until July 22, 2018, as per a directive by the Ministry of Industries,
Mining and Trade issued on Tuesday.Every year and during the rice harvest
season, the government bans rice imports in support of local farmers and
production. Import tariffs have increased from 22% four years ago to 40% at
present for the same reason.
Iranians consume 3 million tons of rice a year while domestic production stands at 2.2 million tons. Therefore, there is need for around 800,000 tons of imports every year.“We need imports, but imports that are limited and controlled,” Agriculture Minister Mahmoud Hojjati was quoted as saying by Mehr News Agency.More than 1.05 million tons of semi- and wholly-milled rice worth close to $996 million were imported into Iran during the first half of the current Iranian year (March 21-Sept. 22), registering an 84.4% and 108.4% surge in weight and value respectively compared with the corresponding period of last year.

Rice imports accounted for 6% and 4.2% of the volume and value
of Iran’s overall imports respectively during the six-month period.Rice
importers bypass the ban during the harvest season by receiving the import
permit before the ban period.Imports are made mainly from the UAE, India,
Pakistan, Thailand, Turkey and Iraq.The southern Vietnamese city of Can Tho
expects to export its first batch of rice to Iran in the last quarter of 2017,
deputy director of the city’s Department of Industry and Trade said last
month.Huynh Trung Tru also said a company in Iran in August directly dealt with
a rice firm in Can Tho to finalize a contract to export to Iran 100,000 tons of
rice from now until the end of the year.
According to Tru, if rice shipment to Iran meets favorable
conditions, the city hopes that the partner will sign a longer term contract
next year.Iran’s state grains buyer Government Trading Corporation has issued
an international tender earlier this month to buy 30,000 tons of rice to be
sourced from India. The tender closes on Dec. 12. The rice is sought in three
consignments of 10,000 tons for shipment in early 2018.
The Agriculture Ministry expects domestic rice production to
increase by 10-15% in the current Iranian year (started March 21), because of
favorable weather condition and timely distribution of seeds, fertilizers,
pesticides, machinery and equipment among local farmers.According to the Central
and West Asia Rice Center, with around 54% of Central and West Asia’s paddy
fields located in Iran, the country accounts for 61% of the regions’ combined
rice production.The two northern provinces of Gilan and Mazandaran are home to
a majority of Iran’s paddy fields.A total of 81% and 70% of rice harvest in the
two provinces respectively were mechanized in the last Iranian year (ended
March 20, 2017).
How a Rice Variety Bred by an
Industrious Maharashtra Farmer Was Pirated
BY ON 23/11/2017 • LEAVE A COMMENT
A plant-breeder
painstakingly selected plants for resowing their seeds, a common good, to
arrive at a distinct and stable variety – only to see it wind its way into the
hands of a private agent.

NIF
Grown
over a million acres of farmland, the HMT rice variety – developed by Dadaji
Ramaji Khobragade, a small cultivator and self-trained plant breeder – has
brought a measure of prosperity to a few hundred thousand farmers in
Maharashtra and neighbouring states.
Khobragade,
now 78 years old, is from a predominantly Buddhist-Dalit village called Nanded,
in Nagbid tehsil of the eastern Chandrapur district of Maharashtra. The
temperature there had crossed 40º C in early April this year. His HMT rice,
grown here since the late 1980s, is a mildly fragrant fine-grain variety with
good cooking quality, and a flavour reminiscent of the traditionally popular
Kolam rice.
When the
market needed a name, the HMT watches were popular at the time and it was the
first thing that came to mind. The consumer preference for HMT rice soon earned
it a price twice that of the rice varieties grown earlier by local farmers. HMT
was also well-suited to the agro-ecological conditions in much of the region.
I knew
Dadaji and of his claim to fame. But stepping inside his village house, I did
not expect to find the walls of the small front room crammed with awards,
certificates and photographs of felicitation ceremonies, including one with
A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, the country’s former president. When I commented on all the
acclaim, Dadaji smiled: “One hundred and three,” he said. “That includes all the
felicitations and awards.”
The
story of HMT began around 1982, when he noticed that a rice plant in his paddy
field was significantly different from the others. The grains in its panicles
were more compactly held. He selected its seeds for careful replanting,
repeating the process each season for several years until the variety
stabilised and manifested its unique traits. By the 1990s, the HMT story was a
local legend and farmers’ demand for HMT seeds has peaked to a clamour.
In 1994,
an official from the nearby Sindewahi Rice Station, under Punjabrao Krishi
Vidyapeeth (PKV) Agricultural University at Akola, visited Khobragade and
returned with five kg of HMT seeds “for experimentation”, signing a receipt for
it. In 1998, PKV released the PKV-HMT rice. It claimed to have “purified” the
earlier variety – but it did not publicly acknowledge that it had sourced the
seeds from the original farmer-breeder, which is Khobragade himself.
A token
reward
In 2004,
an article in The
Hindu brought a flood of public recognition to Khobragade and
his rice-breeding work. The first Richharia Samman award, instituted in the
memory of R.H. Richharia, one of the foremost rice scientists in the world and
who had made many contributions to conserving rice diversity, honoured
Khobragade for developing HMT and several other rice varieties.
Khobragade
also received a number of awards from the governments of Maharashtra as well as
India. In 2005, the National Innovation Foundation (NIF) honoured him for
developing the HMT paddy variety. It also collected the seeds of HMT, DRK and
seven other rice varieties he had developed till then from him, together with
the authorisation to register them with the Protection of Plant Varieties and
Farmers’ Rights Authority (PPVFRA) under the PPVFR Act, 2001.
NIF’s
application for registering HMT rice was submitted to the PPVFRA on January 16,
2008. The certificates of registration were granted another four years later,
on April 4, 2012. The certificate specifically provides: “exclusive right to
produce, sell, market, distribute, import or export the variety; and of
authorising anyone to do so” (emphasis added). But surprisingly, the
registration granted was for ‘Dadaji HMT’ and not simply ‘HMT’, as the variety
was widely known. Perhaps this allowed for PKV-HMT, essentially the same as the
popular HMT variety bred by Khobragade, to be registered separately.
Some
weeks earlier, on February 21, 2012, NIF posted the following message on its
website: “Under the Technology Acquisition Fund (TAF), NIF will obtain the
rights of technologies from innovators after compensating them … NIF will then
disseminate/diffuse them at low cost or no cost for the larger benefit of the
society” (emphasis added). It continued, “In this meeting (on 21-2-2012), 24
farmers from 8 states, who had developed over 39 improved varieties of 15 crops
like paddy, wheat, mustard, bean, pigeon pea, cardamom, pepper, etc.
participated, and Rs 13,00,000 disbursed to them from the TAF” (sic).
On the
same day, NIF had obtained Khobragade’s signature on an electronic stamp paper
document, transferring all his rights (including intellectual property rights)
under the PPVFRA certification for HMT and DRK paddy to NIF for a combined sum
of Rs 1,00,000 (Rs 50,000 for each variety).
HMT rice
had already been widely adopted since the 1990s. At the same time, it is
unclear what the NIF has accomplished in the last five years to “disseminate/
diffuse (the crop variety) at low/no cost for the larger benefit of society,”
as it had claimed it would do. And what was the need to acquire exclusive
rights over the variety for such a purpose?
Rs
50,000 is at best a token and is hardly adequate compensation for acquiring exclusive
rights, especially for a variety like HMT, which has a sales turnover of
several thousand crore rupees per year. Khobragade believes that his DRK
variety has the potential to fare even better.
Subsequently,
the NIF had advanced Khobragade a loan of Rs 3 lakh at 12.5 % interest for
“production and commercialization” of the HMT/DRK varieties. He repaid Rs 1
lakh. In January 2015, he suffered a cerebral stroke. By a letter dated May 21,
2015, the NIF asked him to repay the balance loan which, along with interest
till then, amounted to Rs 2,39,147. Adding to Khobragade’s misfortune, the
monsoon rains that year were poor and so were the harvests.
In a
severe financial crunch, Khobragade’s son Mitrajit urged the NIF to forego its
loan or at least the interest on it. He also requested payment of some returns
on the rice varieties bred by his father to meet pressing debts, including
medical expenses. In response, the NIF suggested the transfer of HMT seed
rights to a private commercial company for repaying the foundation and earning
some returns for Khobragade.
Squandering
common heritage
As for
Khobragade’s DRK rice variety, the NIF’s initial application in 2009
(REG/2009/333) for registering it with the PPVFRA categorised it as a “farmers’
variety”. But after Khobragade’s rights were transferred to the NIF, the latter
made a fresh/amended application for registering DRK under a new category. This
was learnt from a PPVFRA letter to the NIF dated March 4, 2016. It was copied
to Khobragade and requested “5 pkts (of DRK rice seeds) of 100 grams each for
second year testing”. DRK stands for the name of its breeder: Dadaji Ramaji
Khobragade. But between 2009 and 2016, this variety could have been registered
by anyone with the PPVFRA under another name.
The
PPVFRA has also failed to inform Khobragade about the fate of the other rice
rice varieties submitted on his behalf by the NIF for registration with the
authority. These are:
1.
Nanded 92
2. Nanded Chinoor
3. Vijay Nanded
4. Dipak Ratna
5. Nanded Hira
6. Kate HMT
7. and DRK-2

3. Vijay Nanded
4. Dipak Ratna
5. Nanded Hira
6. Kate HMT

developed by Khobragade before 2005.
This is
the sad story of a genuine plant breeder who carefully selected plants for
resowing their seeds. And he painstakingly continues the process over
several generations to finally arrive at a distinct, uniform and stable
variety, only to see it wind its way into the hands of some private company or
its agents. More incredible yet is the plot for privatising and pirating the
seeds – a common good that represents the collective heritage of several hundred
thousand crop varieties, selected and bred by countless generations of farmers
before us.
Such
privatisation follows the same process of some farmer or organisation
registering these (sometimes unwittingly) with the PPVFRA as ‘farmers’
varieties’, claiming that they are “the true breeders” of the concerned
variety/varieties and thereby acquiring exclusive rights bestowed by the
certificate of registration.
It is
estimated that over 700 rice varieties thus registered by the PPVFRA are of
indigenous origin. Numerous traditional varieties of other crops have been
similarly registered with it. While the PPVFR Act recognises “varieties of
common knowledge”, the concerned authorities have not even begun the vital
process of registering these as a collective heritage, protected from any IPR
claims.
The
overriding interest of the PPVFR Authority also seems to be in the opposite
direction. With the stroke of a pen – as the PPVFRA’s ‘Registrar of Plant
Varieties’ signs a certificate of registration bestowing exclusive rights for a
farmer’s crop variety – it is privatised in the form of ‘intellectual property’
for selling to some company. What is also lost in this process is a
millennia-old tradition of sharing seeds for free out of simple good will.

GMOs as safe as conventional
food, beneficial for farmers — scientists
Published November 23, 2017 11:55pm
By RIE TAKUMI, GMA News
Genetically modified food is as safe as traditionally-cultivated
and organic food and has additional nutrients to supplement the needs of common
Filipino families, according to scientists.
The scientists from the Department of Agriculture (DA),
International Rice Research Institute (IRRI), and Biotechnology Coalition of
the Philippines (BCP) reassured the public that GMO (Genetically Modified
Organisim) food is safe at a forum on Thursday that reaffirmed truths about the
controversial subject.
Dr. Nina Gloriani presents the safety
assessment of genetically modified products.
These standards ensure that they are as safe as their conventional counterparts.
Gloriani is the president of the Biotechnology Coalition of the Philippines & professor at UPM.
These standards ensure that they are as safe as their conventional counterparts.
Gloriani is the president of the Biotechnology Coalition of the Philippines & professor at UPM.
As safe as conventional food
Dr. Nina Gloriani, BCP president, said genetically modified
crops have been proven as safe as their conventional counterparts because
screening for the crops is "more rigorous than for other crop production
technologies."
There are many organizations that have attested to this,
including the World Health Organization (WHO), UN Food and Agriculture
Organization, Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, and
national academies of science across the globe.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), then known as the Bureau
of Food and Drugs, determined that the risks from genetically modified foods
are no different from traditionally produced foods in a statement on September
5, 2002.
FDA Advisory: 2013-014 later
stated that "the focus of evaluation is on the food product and not on the
technology used to produce the product" and it supports a "robust
science-based evaluation system" for food safety.
The anti-pest characteristics of GMO crops ensure that farmers
have no need to dip these crops in fertilizer before shipping to conceal insect
damage from traditional farming.
Farmers also do not need to use synthetic growth stimulants nor
organic manure laden with viruses that may lead to enteric infections, as they
do in organic farming.
"Some of them use organic manure and ang problema dun, yung
possibility of enteric infections: e.coli O157, yung nakaka-cause ng diarrhea.
Marami na pong nangyayaring ganun sa America," Gloriani said.
On affordability and accessibility, GM crops and products with
GM crops in it — including canola oil, corned beef, and 2,000 other common
products in the market — are the same as other, traditionally-sourced goods.
"'Organic is better, organic is healthier' pero mas mahal
and who can afford, in the Philippines? Mas marami ba ang makaka-afford? Ang
GM, pareho ang presyo niyan. It has been deemed safe, so it should be available
as is," Gloriani said.
Gloriani said dozens of organizations,
international and national bodies, have deemed GMOs as safe as their
conventional counterparts.
Biotech food safety review takes 10 to 14 years; she said this is enough for GMO crops to transition from the lab, greenhouses, fields, & market.

Vijayawada: The Indian Rice Conclave 2017 concluded that a new
technology can be adopted to process the Paddy before it reaches the rice mill.
As of now, farmers keep rice for 3 to 4 months to get ready for milling. Dr
Meera from Mysore, who participated in the conclave, proposed a technology that
can render the rice ready for milling immediately. The Special Chief Secretary
of Agri-culture Mr Rajasekhar agreed to adopt the new technology on trail basis
after getting approval from the Chief Minister.
The conclave decided to bring the
paddy variety, which will have more nutrition values. As the rice consumption
is more, if the nutrient valued rice can be give to people, they can have good
nutrient values. The conclave discussed this and decided to start the process
by getting approval from the Government of Andhra Pradesh.
The second day of the conclave
focussed mainly on marketing and value additions of the paddy. The varieties,
which have good market abroad can be encouraged and the associated paddy
products also to be gear up in the coming future.

Scientists Genetically Engineer a Form of Gluten-Free Wheat
Removing disease-causing proteins
from the grain could make it safe for celiacs to consume
Email
Most gluten-free bread is made from alternative flours such as
rice or potato, so it tastes and feels different from wheat bread. Now,
however, researchers say that they have found a way to genetically engineer
wheat that contains far less of the most troublesome type of gluten—but still
has other proteins that give bread its characteristic taste and springiness.
Genetically modified crops are the subject of fierce debate
around the world; some countries, including France and Germany, outlaw their
cultivation. The biggest concern involves the practice of inserting DNA from
one species into another, says Francisco Barro, a plant biotechnologist at the
Institute for Sustainable Agriculture in Spain. To avoid this genetic
crossover, Barro and his colleagues used the gene-editing technique CRISPR/Cas9
to cut selected genes from a wheat genome.
Their study zeroed in on alpha-gliadins, gluten proteins
believed to be wheat’s major troublemakers in the immune system. The
researchers designed bits of genetic material that directed the scissorlike
Cas9 protein to cut out 35 of the 45 alpha-gliadin genes. When the modified
wheat was tested in a petri dish, it produced an 85 percent weaker immune
response, the team reported online in September in Plant
Biotechnology Journal.
Wendy Harwood, a crop geneticist at the John Innes Center in
England, who was not part of the study, notes that the engineered wheat has a
ways to go before it can be turned into anything marketable. “I don’t think
it’s the end of the story,” she says. “This is just a really important step in
maybe producing something that is going to be incredibly useful.” To develop a
completely safe strain of wheat for celiac patients, the researchers may need to
target more of the gluten genes. Barro says his team is working on that.
Record rice harvest seen
Aided by constant rains as with
the intensified campaign on using better seed varieties, the country is
projected to see a record rice harvest of about 19.4 million metric tons for
2017, according to Agriculture Secretary Manny Piñol.The record harvest means
the Philippines will need just 600,000 metric tons more to reach its
self-sufficiency target of 20-million metric tons per year.
Until recently, the country
imported about 1.8-million metric tons of rice.The shortage fell to 500,000
metric tons of late, with the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) noting rice
production has grown by 14.7 percent in the third quarter of this year.
Reports from Department of
Agriculture (DA) regional offices indicate the fourth quarter harvest might
fare even better given how typhoons have been bringing in much needed rains,
doubling the usual crop yield.
Pinol said the rice sector’s
improved performance is also attributed to local farmer’s increased willingness
to adapt to modern technology, including the use of hybrid seeds as developed
by private agricultural companies in collaboration with the International Rice
Research Institute (IRRI) and the Philippine Rice Research Institute
(PhilRice).
According to a report, Nueva
Ecija rice farmers using hybrid seeds posted harvests of 10-metric tons, higher
than the national average of 4.38-metric tons per hectare per harvest.
Currently, though, only 360,000
out of a possible 4.9-million hectares are planted with hybrid seeds.
The DA has since set a target of
one million hectares to be planted with hybrid seeds by 2020 with a modest
production goal of six metric tons per hectare.
This is expected to result in an
additional annual production of four million metric tons per harvest per year.

Kamineni on rice-diabetes link
VIJAYAWADA, NOVEMBER 24, 2017 00:00 IST
It’s a “multi-factorial” disease, it says
The Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) Doctors’ Cell condemned
the statement made by Health Minister Kamineni Srinivas in the Assembly that
consumption of rice was the primary cause for the rise in the incidence of
diabetes in the State.
PCC Doctors’ Cell co-chairman A.N. Radhakrishna in statement here
on Thursday said rice had been the staple diet of the South Indians for
centuries. Diabetes was “multi-factorial” disease and could not be attributed
merely to the consumption of rice.
In fact, research showed that the two varieties of rice popular in
the State — Swarna and Masuri — had lower glycemic Index (GI) when compared to
Basmati popular in North India.
Quoting a study conducted by the International Rice Research
Institute (IRRI), it said the GI (measure of a food item’s ability to increase
the blood sugar levels after eating) of Swarna and Masuri rice varieties was
below 55 compared to Basmati’s more than 60.
Dr. Radhakrishna said the IRRI study compared the GI of 233
varieties of rice. The GI of Basmati ranged between 68 and 74 and all other
Indian varieties it was below 60. The statement of the Minister would send a
wrong message that would impact the farmers of the State adversely, he said.
Dr. Radhakrishna said the government did not show the enthusiasm it had in
“grabbing” the land of the farmers in giving the right information about the
crop produced by them.
