Pakistan to export 100 tons of hybrid rice seed this year
GOLARCHI: Sindh province is all set
to become the hub of hybrid seed production in the country, opening up
promising prospects of export to several South and South Asian countries, an
industry official said on Wednesday.
“With an eye on the hybrid rice
seed markets of China, India, Vietnam, and the Philippines, Pakistan has struck
the first deal of exporting up to 100 tons of locally produced rice seed this
year,” Shahrukh Malik, senior executive at Guard Agricultural Research &
Services told a gathering of stakeholders and paddy growers.
“Sindh has been blessed with ideal
conditions for the cultivation of hybrid rice. Having a strong support of
Chinese research and development expertise, a team of scientists succeeded in
growing high-yielding hybrid rice in the rice zones of lower and upper
Sindh.”
Malik added the rice varieties
being cultivated in these areas for over a decade have been proved to have
heat-resistance characteristics, coupled with least susceptibility to lodging
of plants.
“Badin and adjoining districts
provide ideal conditions for growing hybrid rice varieties having greater vigor
and sturdy stem in coastal belt proved very successful in these conditions,” he
said.
The rice research official added
that local farmers were getting a yield of over 130maund (1 maund is equal to
40kg) per acre from the hybrid rice being marketed by Guard.
“The introduction of hybrid rice
seed back in 2,000 helped local farmers increase their income manifold,” Malik
said adding this consistence rise in their income is now going to convert into
foreign exchange earnings for the country. He informed the audience the
proposals to make production and trade of hybrid rice seed a part of
China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) were being actively considered by the
two countries. “Rice seed cultivation in China is becoming expensive by the day
and Pakistan is poised to grab this opportunity,” he observed.
Malik maintained that his company
presently enjoyed about 50 percent share in the country’s hybrid rice seed
market.
“Out of about one million acres of
land, over 0.45 million acres were being sown with the hybrid rice seed
provided by our company,” he said. Speaking on the occasion, Chai, a Chinese
scientist, said despite high temperature and gusty winds, hybrid rice crops
have proved to be very successful in the area.
Dai, another Chinese official, said
that Pakistan-China partnership in rice production created a win-win situation
for both countries.
“Farming community and private
sector are getting equally benefited from this venture,” Dai said expressing
the hope this partnership would thrive down the line

VietNamNet Bridge - Only in 2004 did
Vietnam began implementing legal action to protect plant varieties.
By 2017, the Plant Variety Protection Office (PVPO) had granted protection titles to 453 varieties, including 270 varieties of domestic subjects.Meanwhile, Vietnam has up to 35,000 plant variety specimens kept at the national plantation gene bank.
A PVPO report showed that to date the office has received 1,000 applications for protection titles from both domestic and foreign subjects. Of these, the applications for protecting rice varieties accounts for the largest proportion, followed by maize, vegetables and flowers.
Of the plant varieties on the protection list, 120 are rice varieties. However, the figure is too small compared with 7,000 rice varieties being kept at the national plant gene bank, which just accounts for 1.7 percent. And if comparing the number of protected plant varieties (270) with 35,000 plant varieties kept at the bank, the proportion would be 0.8 percent only.

However, according to PVPO Chief Secretariat Nguyen Thanh Minh,
the demand for having plant varieties protected has been increasing in recent
years. Since 2004, the office has received 74.4 applications every year.
In 2016 alone, the office received 185 applications and the same number of applications came in just the first seven months of 2017.
“We expect to receive 300 applications this year,” he said.
“The number of applications is on the rise which shows that Vietnamese enterprises have realized the benefits of having plant varieties protected,” he explained, adding that his office received 644 applications from domestic subjects in 2016.
With protection titles, inventors’ benefits can be protected by law. Hoang Hau Dragon Fruit Company Ltd has to pay VND2 billion for the right to use the LD5 dragon fruit invented by the Southern Horticultural Reserach Institute. A series of rice varieties have been transferred at high prices, which has changed scientists’ thoughts.
Dinh Thi Dinh from the Fruit & Vegetable Research Institute said she is going to apply for the protection title of some flower varieties.
“In the past, our products were only enough to provide to the domestic easy-to-please market, therefore, we did not care about the variety protection. But now, our products have higher quality and we have begun thinking of exporting them,” she explained.
However, analysts said that the majority of varieties’ owners don’t intend to get protection titles for their varieties. The high cost and long time for procedures are the two reasons that made them hesitate.

Deputy Chief Minister inaugurates two days national symposium on
plant diseases
Source: IT News
Imphal,
October 10 2017: Deputy
Chief Minister Yumnam Joykumar Singh today inaugurated two days National
Symposium on " Emerging and Re-Emerging Plant Diseases in North East
India: Challenges and Strategies" at Indian Council of Agricultural
Research (ICAR), Research Complex for NEH Region, Manipur Centre, Imphal .
Speaking at the inaugural session, Deputy Chief Minister said, proper interface between farmers and scientists would be more helpful in controlling pests and other plant diseases hampering productivity in North Eastern region.
He said, most of the States in the region have predominantly depend upon agriculture and allied activities as a means of livelihood and therefore issues pertaining to these activities should be addressed properly.
Planting crops in right time would be the best way to control most of the diseases as there would be a little chance to pests and disease causing agents to affect the crops.
He further said, with the advancement of research works, High Yielding Varieties (HYVs) have been developed and cultivating these varieties in large scale has been increased considerably but at the same time indigenous varieties around us for years should be taken care of.
Joykumar Singh said, people are in good habit of consuming organic foods, which are supposed to be considered as best to our health.
Using chemicals to control pests and diseases should be taken care of as it can cause health hazards to us. He said, instead of using various chemicals to control plant diseases, we should try to introduce methods which are less harmful to human consumption.
Efforts should be made in this direction to bring a phenomenal change so that agriculture and allied activities can be developed to meet the growing demand of food in the country, he added.
Vice Chancellor of Central Agricultural University (CAU), Imphal, Professor M.Premjit Singh while speaking on the occasion strongly advocated the need to introduce crop rotation in large scale to control pests and other plant diseases in North Eastern Region.He said, minor plant diseases have become serious due to the factors of climate change.
ICAR have been doing tremendous work in rice research and cultivation of HYVs.He urged the Scientists to initiate research to control disappearance of local varieties in the region.
Earlier, Deputy Chief Minister distributed certificates to the trainees who have successfully concluded one month training on Gardeners Training Programme conducted at Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) Churachandpur from 11th September -10th October this year.Agricultural inputs were also distributed in the inaugural session.Dr..NPrakash, Joint Director, ICAR also spoke in the session.

New rice yields high hopes
Researchers expect BRRI
dhan81to be the most productive variety
Release of a new rice variety brings in high hopes as scientists
expect it to break the long stagnation in the production growth of the staple.Breeders
at Bangladesh Rice Research Institute have developed the variety -- BRRI dhan81
-- whose per hectare output would be half a tonne more than BRRI dhan28, which
is currently the most productive rice variety in the country.
There are 86 modern rice varieties in Bangladesh but the farmers
plant BRRI dhan28 in an overwhelming 45 percent of the rice lands during the
Boro season. Because of its high growth potential and huge acreage, scientists
call BRRI dhan28 a mega variety.
Yesterday, the National Seed Board approved the new variety BRRI
dhan81, which scientists hope would eventually replace BRRI dhan28 and increase
the country's overall rice output significantly.
Against BRRI dhan28's per hectare yield of 6 tonnes, the BRRI
dhan81 would give farmers an output of 6.5 tonnes and the rice will also be
richer in protein (10.3 parts per million comparing to 8.6 ppm in BRRI
dhan28).On average, Bangladeshi consumers depend on rice for over 50 percent of
their daily calorie and protein requirements.It took 15 years for the
scientists at Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (Brri) to come up with the new
variety since Agriculture Minister Matia Chowdhury brought in some seeds of
Amol-3 rice variety from Iran.
"We bred BRRI dhan81 through successful crosses between
Iran's Amol-3 and our mega variety -- BRRI dhan28. The process of crossing, lab
and field tests continued for the past 15 years and finally the seed board gave
it the nod today [Wednesday]," Brri Director General Md Shahjahan Kabir
told The Daily Star last night.
He said the new grain has greater elongation traits. After
cooking, the rice elongates up to 1.6 times. Other high yielding varieties have
1.2 to 1.3 times elongation rate. The new variety also has export potential as
the clean rice is long and slender, he said. The new variety comes at a
time when two of the country's most common rice varieties -- BRRI dhan28 and
BRRI dhan29 -- released back in 1994, are losing potential due to ageing.
The prospect of higher rice yield through the release of the new
variety also comes against the backdrop of diminishing returns from the
country's rice fields.
A recent International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI)
report says Bangladesh's rice production growth slowed down to just 0.7
percent in five years (2012-16), whereas the growth was as high as 4.8 percent
in the preceding five years (2007-11).
Akhter Ahmed, the country head of the Washington-based food
research think tank IFPRI, said, "Rice production more than tripled since
the country's liberation [in 1971], but the [agricultural] growth is slowing
down." He observed that the most popular rice varieties in
Bangladesh are old and they require better replacements so that farmers can
reap more yield from less land and go for agricultural diversity by growing
other high value crops.
Akhter put emphasis on the agricultural extension service's role
in demonstrating and popularising the new potential rice varieties among the
farmers. As a third of Bangladesh's total farm households are of pure tenants
-- who work in lands owned by others -- it's very crucial for the state to take
extension services to them, he added.
With BRRI dhan81, the number of Brri-developed rice varieties now
stands at 86. Among them, six are hybrids while the rest are high yielding
inbred varieties (HYVs).
Brri-developed rice varieties cover more than 80 percent of the
total rice areas of the country. These varieties account for more than 91
percent of the country's total 35 million tonnes of rice production.
USA Rice on First-Ever USDA Trade Mission to Brazil
11 October 2017
RECIFE
& SAO PAULO, BRAZIL -- During the last week of September, USA Rice was one
of 14 companies that participated in the first-ever USDA Agricultural Trade
Mission to Brazil to meet importers interested in U.S. rice, led by USDA's
Foreign Agricultural Service Deputy Administrator Mark Slupek.
USA Rice participated in two days of business-to-business meetings here discussing U.S. rice with 20 companies, traders, and supermarkets. In addition to the meetings, the trade mission participants visited a wheat milling plant and a pasta and biscuit (cookies and crackers) manufacturing plant. During the biscuit manufacturing plant tour, Sarah Moran, USA Rice vice president international, discussed using rice in new lines of gluten-free biscuits to the company's commodity purchaser.
Brazil is one of the largest agricultural commodity producers in the world but it is also a huge and promising export market for U.S. products. Current transportation infrastructure hurdles within Brazil make logistics challenging and expensive so in many cases, importing from abroad is an economic and timely choice. One company that imports various food products commented on how expensive internal transportation is, stating that moving goods 2,300 miles between two ports in Brazil is more than twice as expensive as transport from Brazil to the U.S., which is more than twice as far.
"The majority of the rice consumed in Brazil is produced domestically and their imports come largely from Mercosur members (Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay) at zero percent duty, however, several of the companies expressed interest in U.S. rice," said Moran. "Brazilians eat rice almost daily and consume about 85 pounds per capita annually. Additionally, Sao Paulo has the largest population of Japanese outside of Japan and thus sushi rice is also prevalent in the market here. There was significant interest in U.S. rice, particularly our specialty rices."

Acreage Survey Results
The results of the 2017 Louisiana
Rice Variety Survey are now available online. The survey contains information
on:
- Total rice production in each parish and
the percentage of long, medium, and special purpose rice
- Breakdown of long grain, medium grain, and
special purpose varieties and hybrids grown
- Ratoon and conservation tillage practices
used in each parish
- Planting and water management cultural
practices used by farming operations in each parish
- Various maps and figures summarizing the
findings
This survey is done annually by
Extension Agents in each of the rice producing parishes by contacting their
rice producers and seed distributors. In many cases, the survey results may not
exactly match FSA certified planted acres. Deviations can be the result of many
factors. The most common factors include large farming operations which farm in
multiple parishes only reporting in one parish. Included in the data this year
for the first time is water management practices including furrow irrigated
rice (row rice) and alternate wetting and drying (AWD). Furrow irrigated rice
management was reported in only two Louisiana Parishes with a total of 1,400
acres. The individual survey results, maps and figures are available on the LSU
AgCenter Website (individual survey results). All of the data
combined into one document can be found here (Complete Results Document). A big thank you to
all of the Extension Agents who help make this survey possible!

Steve Linscombe
New Director of The Rice Foundation
By Deborah Willenborg
ARLINGTON, VA -- Dr. Steve Linscombe recently retired from the
Louisiana State University Rice Research Center after 35 years of service but
he's certainly not retiring from the U.S. rice industry because, as of October
1, Steve is the new director of The Rice Foundation.As director, Steve will
work with the Foundation's board to identify and support research projects that
ultimately ensure the long-term sustainability and future competitiveness of
U.S. rice. He also will be in charge of
the Foundation's education programs including the wildly successful Rice
Leadership Program.
"The U.S.
rice research community has a very positive view of The Rice Foundation,"
said Steve. "Most of the research
organizations have used Foundation funds to support very important research
projects that benefit producers, processors, and end users as well as
consumers."Steve concluded, "I hope to help The Foundation continue
to be a valuable partner to the U.S. rice industry and I believe my close
working relationship with the U.S. research community will be an asset in this
effort."
"The timing of Steve's retirement from LSU and the job opening
at The Rice Foundation could not have been more fortuitous," said USA Rice
President & CEO Betsy Ward.
"Steve's reputation as a leader in our industry is unprecedented
and I am so pleased he wants to keep having an impact by taking on this new
responsibility."
Trend spotting
Colombia Chef Tour in Miami Cut
Short by Hurricane Irma
By Sarah Moran
MIAMI, FL -- Earlier this summer,
USA Rice held professional chef competitions in Bogota, Barranquilla, and Cali,
Colombia where hundreds of chefs competed to claim first prize (see USA Rice
Daily, July 26, 2017). The top winners
from each city recently traveled here to participate in a hotel, restaurant,
and institutional (HRI) tour that included a stop at Florida International
University's Restaurant Management Program where they received an overview of
HRI trends in America, with an emphasis on U.S. rice. The group had also planned on exhibiting and
cooking with U.S. rice at the 21st Americas Food & Beverage show and
conference in Miami but the event was canceled due to Hurricane Irma.
"This HRI tour in Florida has given us
the opportunity to see firsthand some of the hottest culinary trends,"
said Mauricio Londono, executive director and co-founder of the Colombian
Association of Chefs, a tour participant with more than twenty years'
experience in the development of products for the Colombian food sector. "I am sure we will be able to apply some
of what we have seen here in our restaurants in Colombia."
USA Rice has conducted marketing
activities in Colombia for the past three years to encourage the burgeoning HRI
sector to increase the use of U.S.-grown rice.
The U.S. has exported more than 80,000 MT of rice to Colombia in the
first six months of this year, valued at more than $33 million. Colombia remains one of the top ten export
markets for U.S.-grown rice.
African farmers may soon be adopting PH knowledge, expertise in
rice production
October 10, 2017, 12:17 PM
By Roy Mabasa
Farmers from Africa may soon be
adopting Philippines’ knowledge and expertise in rice production to support
food security, boost rural development and alleviate poverty in that region.
This developed as 30 agricultural
specialists from Africa graduated recently from training programs on quality
rice seed production and extension under the three-year development cooperation
(2016-2019) of the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), International
Rice Research Institute (IRRI) and the Philippine Rice Research Institute
(PhilRice).

In a statement, JICA senior
representative Yuko Tanaka said they want to help create opportunities for
partner countries like the Philippines to also share with other countries the
knowledge and expertise they learned from Japan.“Under this model of
cooperation, together we can contribute to poverty alleviation and food
security,” Tanaka said.
Both IRRI and PhilRice were
beneficiaries of JICA’s development assistance.The eight-week course at
PhilRice has enhanced the participants’ knowledge and skills in rice production
with emphasis on the production of quality rice seeds through hands-on
activities and laboratory and field exercises. They were likewise exposed to
the different extension methods that can be applied in the promotion and use of
quality rice seeds among farmers.
Participants in this course were
agriculture extension workers from Africa, Afghanistan and the Philippines.The
activity complements the ongoing rice value chain initiatives of different
members of the Coalition for African Rice Development (CARD). IRRI, PhilRice
and other global partners are actively supporting CARD’s agenda of helping
double rice production in Africa by 2018.
PhilRice, a government corporate
entity that promotes high-yielding and cost-reducing technologies in rice
production, has received a Japanese grant aid in the 1980s to upgrade its
facilities and research laboratories with Japanese scientists.JICA noted in its
statement that Sub-Saharan Africa has suffered from increasing rice demand
since the 1990s.
Food and Agriculture Organization
(FAO) data showed that Sub-Saharan Africa has the highest prevalence of
undernourishment in the world at 23.2 percent or one in every four people
making agriculture productivity an urgent concern.
New MoU on rice signed
Khmer Times Share:
Local company Virasun
Development and the United Arab Emirates (UAE)’s International Trading on
Monday signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for the purchase and sale of
50,000 tonnes of milled rice and 50,000 tonnes of organic fertilizers per year,
according to a senior official working for the Ministry of Agriculture.
Hean Vanhan, the director-general
of the General Directorate of Agriculture at the Ministry of Agriculture, who
presided over the signing ceremony, told Khmer Times yesterday that Cambodia
has previously only exported small amounts of milled rice to the Emirates,
adding that the new agreement was an excellent development for the industry.
Mr Vanhan said that Virasun
Development will sell 50,000 tonnes of milled rice to International Trading per
year. In turn, the Cambodian company will purchase 50,000 tonnes of fertilizer
materials from the enterprise.
“The Ministry of Agriculture, and
particularly the General Directorate of Agriculture, plays a key role in
facilitating those challenges encountered by the private sector and fostering
this type of agreement,” Mr Vanhan said.
The government official added
that both companies need to comply with Cambodian law and make sure all proper
registrations and quality tests are carried out before the fertilizers are
brought into the country.
Mr Vanhan also said that basmati
rice is the preferred rice variety in the Emirates, but noted that the Arab
nation also needs imports of other rice varieties to meet demand from migrant
workers.
Cambodia exported about 420,000 tonnes of milled rice to 60
international markets in the first nine months of the year, an increase of 16
percent compared with the same period last year. The main export markets for
the product are China, France and Poland, according to official reports.

An MOU was signed with Myanmar on September
17 and the cost per ton rice will be $442
The Ministry of Food’s controversial proposal to import 100,000
tons of rice from Myanmar amid heightened tensions over the Rohingya crisis,
will be placed at cabinet committee meeting on public purchase on Wednesday for
approval at the cost of Tk366.86 crore, officials said.An MOU was signed with
Myanmar on September 17 and the cost per ton rice will be $442, according to
the Ministry of Food’s proposal.
Bangladesh, normally the world’s fourth-biggest rice producer,
has emerged as a major importer of the grain this year after floods damaged
crops and sent the prices of the staple to record highs. The country is
currently is facing a rice shortage of 1.5 million tons.To make sure there is
an adequate supply of rice, the government is also going to import a total of
250,000 tons of rice from Thailand and India to shore up depleted stocks of the
staple grain, head of the state grain buyer said on Monday, according to
Reuters.“We will buy 150,000 tons of parboiled rice from Thailand at $465 a ton
and another 100,000 tons from India’s PEC at $455 a ton,” Badrul Hasan of the
Directorate General of Food, Bangladesh’s procurement agency, told Reuters.
The prices include shipping, insurance and discharge costs.According
to the sources at the Ministry of Food, the price of rice per kg has risen by
39% over the last nine months in Bangladesh, while it has only risen by a mere
6% globally.However the Trading Corporation of Bangladesh said coarse rice was
selling at Tk46-50 per kg in Dhaka in August and the price rose to Tk54 per kg
in September. In January, the cost of coarse rice was Tk38.Meanwhile the cost
of fine grain rice has been skyrocketing, selling at Tk70 per kg last month.

Rice
prices have gone up repeatedly in 2017
The government will buy 100,000 tons of rice
from Myanmar at a cost of Tk336.8 crore
Food Minister Qamrul Islam on
Wednesday said the government approved a proposal to import 100,000 tons of
rice from Myanmar.Emerging from a cabinet committee meeting on public purchase
and economic affairs, he said: “The Cabinet Committee on Public Purchase gave a
nod of approval to import 100,000 tons rice from Myanmar.”In reply to
reporters’ query about whether the government will further purchase rice from
the neighbouring country, he said: “We did not talk about this.”
During his recent visit to
Naypyidaw, the minister signed a deal with his Myanmar counterpart on importing
350,000 tons of rice from the country in the next three years.Additional
Cabinet Secretary Mustafiur Rahman said the 100,000 tons of white rice would be
imported under a G2G contact at a cost of Tk366.86cr.He said: “Rice will be
purchased at $442 per ton. Price per kg of rice will be Tk36.69. When the rice
will be brought in depends on shipment from Myanmar.”
He, however, added that the
shipping process would not take over a week.Mustafiur also said the Cabinet
Committee on Public Purchase approved another proposal of the Food Ministry to
purchase 50,000 tons of parboiled rice from global suppliers at a cost of
Tk177.34cr.
Per ton of parboiled rice will be
purchased at $427. M/S Mohammad Rabiul Islam Sonapotti Pabna is the lowest
bidder for importing rice from the international market, he added.“Bangladesh
is facing a shortfall of 1.5 million tons of rice this year as crops were
severely damaged by floods in recent months. As of September 5, the stock of
rice stood at 366,000 tons,” the Food Ministry proposal reads.
Bangladesh has so far purchased
around 150,000 tons of rice from individual suppliers this fiscal year.The
ministry will hold a meeting on October 15 to decide on costs and timeframe for
importing rice from India. Sources said that no tender would be floated
for importing rice from the country, as it would be purchased on a G2G basis.

UPDATE
1-Bangladesh approves purchase of rice from Myanmar
OCTOBER
11, 2017 / 6:32 PM /
By Ruma Paul
DHAKA, Oct 11 (Reuters) -
Bangladesh approved on Wednesday the purchase of 100,000 tonnes of white rice
from Myanmar, putting aside worsening relations over the Rohingya refugee
crisis, as the government seeks to address a shortage of the staple.Traditionally
the world’s fourth-biggest rice producer, Bangladesh has emerged as a major
importer of the grain this year after floods damaged its crops and sent
domestic prices to record highs.Bangladesh’s cabinet purchase committee approved
the purchase on Wednesday, its food minister, Qamrul Islam, told reporters.
The rice is being purchased at
$442 a tonne, including shipping, insurance and discharge costs.
The transaction with Myanmar is
the first state-to-state rice deal between the two countries and comes amid
increasingly strained relations.Myanmar’s security forces have driven out half
a million Muslim Rohingya from northern Rakhine state, torching their homes,
crops and villages to prevent them from returning, the U.N. human rights office
said on Wednesday.
Bangladesh is also set to import
a total of 250,000 tonnes of rice from Thailand and India in state-to-state
deals to shore up depleted stocks and combat high prices of the staple food.
The government has already
secured deals with Vietnam and Cambodia while issuing a series of tenders as it
looks to import a total of 1.5 million tonnes of rice in the year to June.High
demand from Bangladesh helped push Asian rice prices to multi-year highs in
June.
In August, Bangladesh cut a duty
on rice imports for the second time in two months. The lower import duty has
prompted purchases by private dealers, with most of the deals being struck with
neighbouring India.Bangladesh produces around 34 million tonnes of rice
annually but uses almost all its production to feed its 160 million people. It
often requires imports to cope with shortages caused by floods or droughts.
India's April-Aug rice exports rise
7.4 percent - govt body
MUMBAI (Reuters) - India’s rice exports during April-August rose
7.4 percent from a year earlier to 5.13 million tonnes as shipments of
non-basmati rice surged, a government body said on Wednesday.

Non-basmati rice exports jumped 9.4 percent to 3.29 million
tonnes, while premium basmati rice exports rose 4 percent to 1.85 million
tonnes, the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development
Authority said in a statement.India, the world’s biggest rice exporter, mainly exports non-basmati rice to African countries and premier basmati rice to the Middle East.
The country’s buffalo meat exports in April to August edged up 0.2 percent to 503,496 tonnes, while guar gum exports surged 61.5 percent to 218,165 tonnes, the government body said.

Growers scramble to finish rice
harvest before fall rains
Late
spring storms caused delays in planting, which pushed harvests back. Growers
are also finding lower yields after several heat waves during the summer
interfered with pollination.

California’s rice harvest is in high gear as summer heat has diminished yields
for some growers.
TIM
HEARDEN/CAPITAL PRESS
Worker Virgilio Chavez dumps a load
of harvested rice into a bankout to be taken to holding silos near Willows,
Calif., on Oct. 10. The harvest of rice is under way in California, as weather
delayed the planting season and then interfered with yields.
WILLOWS, Calif. — Rice growers in California are in the
midst of a harvest that has been challenged in many ways by weather.Farms got
off to a late start with planting last spring as fields remained muddy from one
of the wettest winters in the state’s history, then blistering summer heat
caused more problems.On Larry Maben’s farm in the middle Sacramento Valley,
rice plants were laying on the ground instead of standing as they usually do at
harvest, because heat waves this summer caused the plants to grow quickly, he
said.
As such, harvesting the grain is a more methodical process.“The
rice is down flat, which makes it slow,” Maben said. “You just take it as easy
as you can.”The heat spells — which peaked at above 110 degrees several times
this summer — also appear to have taken a toll on yields by hindering
pollination, growers said. Maben thinks his yields are off 10 to 20 sacks an
acre, as he normally produces between 90 and 100 sacks per acre, he said.
Adding to the slow pace has been morning dew that prevents crews
from getting out with harvesters until midday, when the plants have dried, he
said.The rice harvest typically peaks in early to mid-October, but some growers
are still racing to catch up after late spring rains held up field work. Rice
is planted in water, but growers must first drag the fields with tractors so
that water levels remain even.As it was, growers were scrambling to meet an
unofficial June 1 deadline for getting their rice seed down, as planting any
later would likely push harvests into the rainy season.
Some growers ended up leaving some fields fallow. Last month the
National Agricultural Statistics Service lowered its estimate to 462,000
productive acres this year, down from the 539,000 planted acres the agency had
projected in the spring.As of last month, NASS expected growers to produce
40,304 hundredweight of all rice varieties combined this season, down from
47,394 hundredweight from 536,000 harvested acres in 2016.
Maben is about one-third of the way through his fields. Marysville
grower Charley Mathews has had to stop and start because some of his fields
were still green, but he hopes to finish before the rains come.“We should be”
finished in time, said Mathews, a USA Rice Federation executive committee
member. “We’ve got a good weather outlook, so that helps. It’s coming along.”Mathews
has been told by other growers that the earliest plantings are struggling the
most with yields, he said. Whether a plant is affected by high temperatures
depends on where it is in its growth, he said.“If the heat hits at a certain
stage of the plant, you could have heat-induced blanking, which is rare,”
Mathews said. “What I’m hearing is the later-harvested yields are improving.”
Rice stocks
dwindle in 9 months
10/11/2017 2:37:40 PM
(MENAFN) The country"s rice inventory declined by 20 percent
in the first nine months of the year to 1.42 million metric tons, according to
the latest data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA).This was lower
than the 1.78 million MT recorded a year earlier and 30 percent below the 2.02
million MT recorded in August.
According to the PSA, stock inventory of Filipinos" main
staple will be sufficient for 40 days.
Stocks held by households are sufficient for 20 days, while those
in commercial warehouses are also good for 20 days.The National Food Authority,
meanwhile, has depositories enough only for two days when it is supposed to
have a 15-day buffer stock.
Digitalisation
to secure rice farming
WITH
the rise in smartphone usage in Thailand, Bayer’s country group head
Simon-Thorsten Wiebusch said the next step to improve local rice crops may come
from “digitalization” .“Digitalisation provides a host of methods to
efficiently cultivate rice,” said Wiebusch, who with other sponsors such as
German state funded GIZ, show how high-tech drones can monitor, measure and
protect hectares of paddy fields.
The collected aerial data can do within
minutes what takes days on foot. Thai rice, which is a key commodity export
worth Bt25 billion and a food industry worth more than Bt156 billion, has been
“struggling” in recent years, due to weak prices and growing competition.
“Digital apps makes farming easier, allowing young Thais to stay on the farms
without moving to cities,” he said. Wiebusch recognises most Thai farmers are
deeply attached to family-owned plots but need assistance or make them more
profitable.
The Western assumption was urban migration is
inevitable but that iew is now seen as simplistic and flawed, he observed. On
travels to Vietnam, Wiebusch saw “they “bury their dead at the edge of rice
fields”. “It would be unthinkable for them to sell sacred ancestral grounds.”
At the same time, Thai and Vietnamese farmers face competition from
conglomerates with deep pockets and infrastructure.
This
is where Wiebusch said Bayer could provide digital know-how and equipment to
level the playing field, Digitalisation and mechanization “can overcome the
problem of Thailand’s ageing society as fewer children are born, to work the
farms,” he offered. The average size of Thai families has shrunk to 4, even in
rural areas. This makes it hard to sustain output, he reasoned. Bayer recently
showcased a joint German-Thai private-public sector rice project In Ubon
Ratchathani where 4.2 million rai of “khao hom mali” (jasmine rice) are
cultivated. Farmers at Baan Bua Thein village said they have cut planting costs
by 20 per cent while raising yields by 20 per cent as well.
This
means a hefty rise in earnings,” said Apichart Pongsrihadulchai, a key
architects of BRIA (Better Rice Initiative for Asia). BRIA encourages the use
of new technology, including fertiliser, pesticide and drones. Rapidly
collected drone data tells farmers when crops are ripe for harvest, which must
be done quickly to prevent the crop from spoiling, he said. Small farmers will
be around for quite some time here, Wiebusch deduced.
The
glamour of urban migration has faded fast in the digital age. Lifetime
employment and huge pensions are a thing of the past. More Thais now realise it
is safer to stay on the farm that was for centuries a natural safety net. “If
they lose their jobs in cities, they will starve the minute they run out of
cash. But on the farms, they can survive off the land without the need for
money,” Apichart added. Thailand, with more than 70 per cent of the population
in agriculture, has never fully bought into city migration as a panacea for its
ills.
The
corporate world is less sound than once believed after the 1997 financial crash
wrecked the Kingdom and nearby countries. Foreign punters who expected Thailand
to implode were surprised when thousands of laid-off workers retreated to the
farms, preventing civil unrest. It allowed Thailand to repay IMF for emergency
funds ahead of schedule, never to blindly trust Western banking again. As such
the 2007-2008 Wall Street Crash had little impact here as Thailand was not
exposed to the sub-prime disaster.
The
late King Bhumibol Adulyadej was a strong defender of rice farmers. He saw
agriculture as the backbone of Thai society and constructed the “sufficiency
economy” principles to ensure they could withstand the shocks of volatile
market forces. Many global food companies remain sanguine about gaining control
of the market by squeezing out small farmers, unconcerned about the suffering
they bring. In recent decades, Thais have to fend off attacks by foreign
governments who have accused Thailand of “stealing market share” just so they
can sell their rice, while depriving Thai farmers of the receipts.
The
Philippines based International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) had for decades
experimented with “super-rice” strains to feed the world. Had they succeeded,
Thai farmers would have been impacted by a rice glut and plunging prices. More
recently, the attempt to introduce genetically modified (GMO) rice was exposed
by Indian farmers as a ploy to control cultivation by forcing farmers to buy
seeds from GMO companies like Monsanto.
Wiebusch
added that it may be time for discussion to “regulate” rice farming. But in
view of the fallout from the rice price pledging catastrophe, Prime Minister
Prayut Chan-o-cha has warned government or stop making such guarantees or
getting the state overly involved in rural activities, which has often ended in
tears.

CPEC enables
Pakistan to export hybrid rice seed
GOLARCHI: Cooperation between
Pakistan and China under China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) enabled
Pakistan to export hybrid rice seeds for the first time in the country’s agricultural
history, indicating that the cooperation between the two countries was
expanding to other sectors, including agriculture.
The initial shipment, consisting
of 50 to 100 metric tonnes of seeds locally developed with technical assistance
from China, would be exported to Philippines, said Guard Agricultural Research
and Services senior executive Shahrukh Malik. He was speaking to journalists
during a visit to the rice fields in Golarchi, 177 km from the port city of
Karachi.
“The country is all set to export
seeds to Vietnam and India as well”, Malik said adding that “the climate in
which hybrid rice seeds are bred in Sindh is similar to that of Philippines”.
“The environment in Pakistan’s Golarchi area is even better than that of China
for hybrid rice”, said Chai, one of the Chinese agriculturists working on the
project, adding that the transfer of technology in the agriculture sector would
not only enable Pakistan to increase its per acre production but to make it a
base for the supply of hybrid rice to other parts of the region.
Guard Agricultural Research and
Services and Chinese organization Longping had been working in collaboration to
produce hybrid rice in the country. Longping was founded by Yuan Longping
widely known as China’s ‘father of hybrid rice’. Yuan, who developed the
world’s first hybrid rice in 1974, has also set three world records in hybrid
rice yield in 1999, 2005 and 2011.
Hybrid rice is produced by
crossbreeding different kinds of rice. Yuan’s team had been working in around
42 hybrid rice test fields in 16 provincial regions across China, including
Yunnan, Sichuan, Shaanxi, Guangdong, Chongqing and Hunan since the beginning of
the year.
The varieties of rice being
produced in Pakistan are known best for their moisture and heat tolerance
qualities and high yields. “At least 44 companies are importing hybrid seeds
but none of them is producing hybrid seeds in Pakistan, which is an obstacle in
the transfer of technology to the country”, Malik observed adding Philippines
needs the seeds for 2018 crop owing to which the production area had been
increased to 900 acres to meet the growing demand.
Malik was confident that Pakistan
would soon achieve $2 billion rice export mark. “In the past, talk of $1
billion rice export target was considered a joke but now it is a reality. We
have the potential to export more rice with the increasing production of hybrid
rice”, he added.
The increasing production had
also been changing the life style of local farmers’ community and of those who
indirectly depend on farming in the area. Introduction of the hybrid rice in
the area of Golarchi also widely impacted the output to a large extent. “About
ten years ago, our production was not more than 50-60 maund per acre but now it
has gone up to 90-110 maund per acre”, said Muhammad Iqbal, a local farmer.
Better yield has not only
increased living standard of local population but has also increased the school
enrolment, though in private school. “We are sending our children to the
private schools so that they could get better education”, Iqbal added.
The land which according to
locals was burden for farmers due to low yield has now turned into “gold mine”,
as the prices have also gone up by manifold. Meantime many rice mills have
popped up, increasing from 10 to around 100 since 1999. In Golarchi hybrid rice
is sown at around 45000 acre of land while in Badin it cover area of 200,000
acres, resulting over 92 percent of crop consists of only hybrid rice. “Those
who were barefooted and now afford motorcycles and those with motorcycles can
now avail four wheel vehicles”, a farmer commented on the level of development
the residents have experienced.
