Drought-like
conditions may disappear as temperatures in catchments rise
June 05, 2018
ISLAMABAD: The drought-like
conditionsprevailing in the country since the start of the Kharif
season two months ago showed early signs of fading on Monday as temperatures
rose to the highest level in 10 years in the catchment areas.
The temperatures in Skardu
increased suddenly to 32 degree Celsius — highest in 10 years — resulting in
swift snow melting and increased river flows.
“It seems the drought-like
conditions are disappearing,” a spokesman for the Indus River System Authority
told Dawn. “We are hopeful to have good water availability for rice crop sowing”
that starts in mid-June and continues until August.
He said 60-70 per cent cotton
sowing was now complete and remaining was in final stages that would get a
boost due to better water availability. He said it was difficult to recoup
losses suffered by provinces because of 60pc water shortage since April. But,
he added, the losses at least might be minimised.
Mr Rana, who is also director
regulations of the water regulator, said it was a major abnormality that
temperatures had risen so early and so quickly in Skardu. The temperatures used
to go up gradually in the past and never went beyond 30 degree Celsius in the
first week of June.
Based on improved prospects, Irsa
called a special meeting to review the water situation in the backdrop of
substantial increase in river inflows as a result of increase in catchments’
temperatures and noted that at 32 degree Celsius “Skardu attained record temp
in first week of June”.
The meeting was informed that river
inflows had stood at 108,000 cusec on May 26 and had more than doubled to
240,000 cusec on Monday (June 4). Major increases were witnessed in the Indus
and the Kabul rivers. The river flows were, nevertheless, still lower than last
year’s flow of 300,400 cusec.
Therefore, the regulator revised
the provincial shares and today decided to fulfil all the indents of the
provinces to partially make up for the lost opportunity during sowing. As such,
Punjab’s share was increased from 69,400 cusec to 93,200 cusec as demanded by
the provincial irrigation department.
Likewise, Sindh’s share was also
jacked up from 60,000 cusec to 85,000 cusec as asked for by the provincial
government. The share of Balochistan was also enhanced from 8,000 cusec to
14,000 cusec as was desired while Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s flows were kept at 3,100
cusec for Chashma Right Bank Canal.
Even after meeting full demands of
the provinces, Irsa said it was also started storing some water in the
reservoirs and was able to build storage in last four days to 373,000 acre feet
from about 207,000 acre feet.
On May 15, the irrigation
authorities and weather pundits had reported 52pc water shortage in four
remaining weeks of sowing season and feared Kharif crops could face
‘drought-like’ situation in the sowing season.
The Kharif cropping season starts
from April-June and lasts until October-December in different parts of the
country. Rice, sugarcane, cotton, maize and mash are some of the key crops of
the season.

PAMPANGA, Philippines – The first
shipment of the National Food Authority’s (NFA) imported rice has already
arrived at Subic Bay Free Port. It is comprised of 220,000 sacks of rice which
is an initial batch from the total of 5 million sacks that the NFA is expecting
through government-to-government importation deal.
According to NFA Spokesperson Rex
Estoperez, the rice delivery will be distributed to Pampanga, Bataan, and
Zambales on Tuesday evening, June 5, and after two days, they will be available
in markets.
Estoperez said there are also 100
sacks docked at Surigao port while the shipment of the 1.5 million sacks of
rice for distribution to Metro Manila markets and nearby provinces is on its
way.
Estoperez warned, however, that
they will impose fine to exporters if the shipments are not delivered until
June 15.
The NFA is expecting a drop in
prices of rice once the imported ones are made available in markets.
The imported rice will be
retailed at P27 and P37 per kilogram. — Rey Pelayo
Bangladesh to
reinstate 28pc duty on rice import
Staff Correspondent | Published: 00:30, Jun

Bangladesh commerce minister Tofail Ahmed on Monday said that
the government has decided to reinstate 28 per cent duty on rice import in the
budget of next financial year 2018-19 to protect the interests of grows as the
country has witnessed a bumper yield of aman and boro, the two major crops of
the country.
‘Last year, we reduced the import duty on rice to 2 per cent from 28 per cent to meet the shortfall of the crops as flash floods damaged production of boro rice in haor areas. This year the country has witnessed a bumper production of rice and we should protect the interests of the farmers,’ he said at a briefing following a meeting with European Union ambassador Rensje Teerink at Bangladesh Secretariat.
The commerce minister said that against the production loss of 10 lakh tonnes of rice, the country imported huge quantity of the crops and now the stock of food grain was sufficient.
The 28 per cent duty on rice import would be effective from June 7, when the national budget for the 2018-19 fiscal would be placed in parliament, Tofail said.
‘Amid bumper production if we encourage rice import, farmers would not get the right price for their production and they would feel discouraged in producing crops,’ he said.
In June 2017, the government cut the import duty on rice to 10 per cent from 28 per cent to control the soaring price of the staple. The government later reduced the import duty to 2 per cent in phases to increase rice supply in the domestic market.
The commerce minister said that the government would reinstate the previous status of rice import through imposing 25 per cent import duty along with 3 per cent supplementary duty.
About the meeting with the head of the EU delegation, Tofail said that they talked about the fourth review of sustainability compact which would be held on June 25 this year in Brussels.
‘In the meeting, we discussed working together so that Bangladesh could get Generalised System of Preferences Plus benefits in the EU market after the graduation of the country to middle income from least developed one,’ the commerce minister said.
He said that a delegation from Bangladesh would take part in the review meeting and place the progress Bangladesh made.
‘We have already prepared the draft amendment to the labour law reducing membership requirement threshold for trade union registration and the International Labour Organisation is happy with the initiative. I hope the sustainability compact partners would also be happy with the progress that Bangladesh has made after the Rana Plaza building collapse,’ Tofail said.
Teerink said that Bangladesh made commendable progress in last five years but still many things needed to be addressed.
Following the Rana Plaza building collapse, the EU and other partners got engaged with Bangladesh in the sustainability compact with the aim of promoting improvements in labour rights and workplace safety in the country’s apparel sector.

Rising prices
pressure Duterte to enact rice tariff bill
Inflation hits five-year high,
breaches central bank target
MIKHAIL FLORES, Nikkei staff writerJune 05, 2018 18:05 JST
MANILA -- Inflation in the Philippines hit a new five-year high in
May, raising the prospects that populist President Rodrigo Duterte may have to
relax import restrictions on rice to bring prices down, a move opposed by
farmers.
Inflation hit 4.6% in May, the highest in at least five years,
the government said on Tuesday, bringing average price increases for the year
above the central bank's target of 2-4%. Nestor Espenilla, the country's
central bank governor, said inflation remains generally elevated, despite
falling below market expectations.
"The inflation outlook continues to be a concern and
requires close attention," Espenilla said. The Bangko Sentral ng
Pilipinas, the Philippine central bank, sets monetary policy around targeting
inflation.
"The Monetary Board will consider what further adjustments
are necessary to firmly anchor inflationary expectations," Espenilla said.
The BSP will meet next month to review its monetary policy.
The government's economic team has likewise moved to calm the
public over rising prices in two rare press conferences.
In Seoul, Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez and Socioeconomic
Planning Secretary Ernesto Pernia briefed reporters covering Duterte's South
Korea visit while Budget Secretary Benjamin Diokno addressed inflation-related
questions in Manila.
"We know that we are going through a challenging
period," Diokno said.
Diokno said Congress must fast-track the enactment of a bill
that would relax current strict restrictions on rice imports and instead slap
high tariffs on them that would ease prices. The import restrictions were first
put in place to protect local farmers. Government economists said the bill
would reduce inflation by 0.4 percentage points if it is passed in the third
quarter.
Economists said the new policy on rice imports would benefit the
country and help bring prices down, but could hurt rice farmers, at least
initially.
"It's just really the transition from a protected rice
sector to a more open rice industry and I think if there are ample safety nets
in the transition for the rice farmers, then it should be net overall positive
for the economy," said Jose Mario Cuyegkeng, senior economist at ING Bank
in Manila.
The government has largely blamed international oil prices,
which has risen 24% above its forecast for the uptick in consumer prices. The
public, however, partly blames Duterte's tax reforms for the price spikes.
The rise in global oil prices has coincided with the
government's implementation of its first package of tax reforms this year that
slashed personal income tax and hiked levies on oil and other commodities.
Consumers and lawmakers now want the government to suspend the
implementation of the tax reform for inclusion and acceleration (TRAIN) which
is expected to net an additional 90 billion pesos ($1.72 billion) in government
revenues.
But government officials said that the revenues were
much-needed.
"Suspending TRAIN and adopting other band-aid solutions
will only have a minimal and short-term impact on inflation and will stifle our
growth," Diokno said. Duterte has left Congress to decide on whether the
implementation of the reform package should be suspended
Duty on Rice Import: Govt to raise
it to 'protect growers'
12:00
AM, June 05, 2018 / LAST MODIFIED: 12:06 AM, June 05, 2018
The government
will re-impose 28 percent duty on import of rice to protect the growers as the
country got a bumper paddy production in the boro season, said Commerce
Minister Tofail Ahmed yesterday.
The move comes after many farmers
sold their produce to middlemen at prices a lot below their production cost in
the face of surging rice imports and increased domestic production this year.
Sheikh Mushfikur Rahman, a farmer
in Bagerhat, said, “This is a delayed a move. The declaration should have been
earlier. This is not going to benefit small farmers as many of them have
already sold their produce. This will benefit the middlemen.”
He said he would be one of the few
of growers who hold on to a portion of their produce until the price rises.
Now, prices of paddy at the farmers
end are between Tk 17.5 and Tk 22.5 per kg depending on the quality, according
to two millers and Mushfik. But the prices are below the government's estimated
production of cost of Tk 24 per kg.
Local farmers are not getting the
proper prices from the sales as excessive rice was imported with only 2 percent
duty in place, Tofail told journalists at a press conference at his secretariat
office.
He said the re-imposed duty would
come into effect with the proposal of the upcoming national budget. Finance
Minister AMA Muhith is scheduled to unveil budgetary measures on June 7.
Sazzad Zahir Chandan, general
secretary of Bangladesh Krishak Samity, a rights organisation for farmers, said
his organisation was against import of rice during the harvest season.
He echoed Mushfik and said farmers
would be unable to reap the benefits of the increased duty.
“Millers and ruling party men who
supply the staple to government silos will make profit now,” he said.
Last year, the government reduced
the duty on rice imports in two phases to increase supply and curb price spike
owing to crop losses in the north where floods had a devastating impact.
The north accounts for more than
half the boro production.The government first reduced duty on import of rice to
10 percent in June last year and in August the duty was further reduced to 2
percent to raise the stock of rice.
As a result, rice import soared to
39 lakh tonnes in July-May, up from only 1.33 lakh tonnes the previous year,
according to the food ministry data.According to US Department of Agriculture,
the rice deficit for Bangladesh was an estimated 10 lakh tonnes.
“We witnessed a bumper paddy
production this season. So, it has been decided that the duty on import of rice
would be taken to the previous level,” said Tofail, adding, “There would not be
any bad impact on the local market if the duty is re-imposed, as we have a lot
of stock of the staple.
“If the duty is not raised from the
2 percent, the traders will import a lot of rice and the local farmers will
lose interest in growing rice in the next season,” the minister said.
“If needed, we will lower the duty
again,” said Tofail.
KM Layek Ali, general secretary of
Bangladesh Auto Major and Husking Mills Association, said duty hike would help
millers to clear their stock, which they could not get rid of due to low demand
and imported rice flooding the market.
Layek said many farmers, including
some with small farms, still have paddy in stock. “Those farmers, who could dry
their paddy, despite inclement weather during and after the harvest, have
retained a portion,” he said.
Mushfik said prices of paddy fell
to as low as Tk 15 per kg in his locality last month and many marginal growers
had to sell their produce. “And marginal farmers, who have sold paddy, will
have to buy rice at higher prices in the coming days if the prices go up. They
could suffer at both ends,” he said.
At the briefing, Tofail said India
imposed anti-dumping duty on Bangladeshi jute to protect the interest of their
own farmers.
“We are also imposing duty to
protect the interest of our farmers.”
Some 6.3 percent more paddy was
produced this boro season compared to the last season, according to a report by
the United States Department of Agriculture last week. During this boro season,
paddy acreage was 1 lakh more than that of last year, the report said.
World Environment Day 2018: Salakyag Marches
Against GMO Cartel Destroying PH Agriculture
Jun 5,
2018 Farmers and environmental stakeholders joining a trans-Philippine march to advocate for the Rights of Nature have lambasted the GMO cartel which they say is destroying the country’s agriculture.

Some 400 participants from all sectors of society braved torrential rains last May 30, 2018 to join the third leg of the Salakyag Para sa Sangnilikha 2018: Sama-samang Sakay-Lakad-Layag Para sa Sangnilikha Trans-Philippines Pilgrimage and Caravan dubbed Salakyag 2018.
Among the highlights of the peaceful protest action attended by farmers, civil society organizations, church leaders and church-based organizations led by Cagayan de Oro Archbishop Antonio Ledesma, SJ was the opposition against the impending commercialization of BT-Talong and Golden Rice in the Philippines.
“What’s really happening now is most of our crops are GM crops which means most farmers are getting their seeds from corporations and companies, so they really need a big capital in order for them to have a yield upon harvest,” said Roselyn Balmes, advocacy officer of Agro-Eco Philippines at the press conference held at Gaston Park following the march. “It’s not only degrading the environment but it’s also not sustainable because iyong ginastos ng mga farmers for these things is not commensurate sa anong nakukuha after harvest.”
Agro-Eco Philippines is a Mindanao-based national NGO of organic farmers, scientists, civil society organizations, and faith-based groups asserting the right to food of the people, ending hunger in the poor farming communities, and increasing the adaptive capacity of farmers to climate change through agro-ecology, advocacy and lobbying, social enterprise, and international solidarity.
The activity has also raised the awareness of the people on the proposed National Seed Law (R.A. No. 7308 also known as the Seed Development Act of 1992) which is perceived to curtail the rights to access of the farmers to save, develop, exchange and share traditional seed varieties and farmer-bred lines in favor of a few multinational GMO corporations.
Unsustainable Agriculture
In an article posted in The Organic and Non-GMO Report (2013) entitled The GMO Seed Cartel, author Ken Rosboro cited how “problems resulting from escalating prices for GM seed are seen most dramatically—and tragically—in developing countries.”

Agriculture (Agro-Eco photo)
“According to a study by Consumers
International, an estimated 270,000 small-hold farmers in the Philippines are
being forced to grow GM corn and ending up in debt. The cost of corn seeds has
risen 282% from its introductory price and accounts for 18-21% of a farmer’s
total cost of production. Farmers are at the mercy of seed suppliers and
lenders who are one and the same in the country and refuse to provide lending
unless the farmers grow GM corn.”A local study by Magsasaka At Siyentipiko Para Sa Pag-Unlad Ng Agrikultura (MASIPAG) found that a farmer needs about P 9,800.00 to buy GM corn seeds to plant one hectare against only P4,500.00 for conventional hybrid corn varieties, thus agrochemical companies such as Monsanto earns at least P 5,000.00 per hectare on seeds alone. In 2011 alone, it was estimated that companies earned over P3-Billion in the sale of GM corn seeds in the Philippines.
In a similar study done by MASIPAG in 2012 on the socio-economic impacts of GM corn among poor farmers, results showed that the expensive cost of GM corn production has driven farmers to local usurers and traders, incurring as much as 40% interest per cropping season that they are unable to pay off.
The use of GM corn seeds entail the use of synthetic chemicals, and together they make up 40‐48% of the total expenses that a farmer spends per season, and all of these go to the corn traders/financiers and agrochemical companies.
Unfortunately, yields of GM corn are inconsistent, with most farmers losing as much as P10, 000 after a bad harvest.
GMOs impact the health and environment. In Capiz, hundreds of hectares of hills and mountains are now converted to GM corn plantations. Farmers can easily clear lands with the use of glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup which Monsanto is also producing.
Most GM corn in the Philippines is genetically modified to become herbicide tolerant, such as glyphosate. Glyphosate is considered a Category 2A Carcinogen of the IARC-WHO. Study estimates that over 5 million liters of glyphosate was doused in GM corn farms in 2011 alone, contrary to the claims that pesticide use is declining due to GM adoption. Hills and mountains cleared with glyphosate are now almost devoid of topsoil due to soil erosion and becoming very acidic making such areas unproductive over time.
Eugenio Geraldo, Agro-Eco PH Advocacy Point Person, and Farmer-Trainor for Malitbog, Bukidnon, said environmental stewardship for sustainable agriculture starts with the seeds planted by the farmers.

Speaking in Visayan, Geraldo said: “If we
start caring for the environment, we should start with the seeds. During these
times, with seeds like Sige-Sige or RR, these require
chemicals to thrive.”
MASIPAG and Greenpeace researchers previously
tested samples of traditional and native corn varieties and found they were
already contaminated by GM corn sold by seed companies (BT, RR, and stacked
corn varieties) through cross-pollination, tainting the country’s second staple
crop with GM
traits.“Farmers call the contaminated corn varieties ‘sige-sige’ corn in Mindanao as these dangerous technologies are creeping into our food systems without our knowledge and consent”.
The researchers found GMO corn presents a risk to health and the environment since these are used as livestock feeds and when their meat is processed the BT toxin could be ingested in fresh and processed foods, posing health hazards to the human population.
The return of Bt-Talong and Golden Rice
“When we speak of sustainable agriculture, we should talk about people’s lives and chemicals have side effects which are detrimental to people’s lives,” Geraldo stressed. “And things are taking a turn for the worst with the impending return of Golden Rice and BT-Talong.”
Farmers groups, environmental activists, scientists, consumer advocates and concerned sectors have challenged Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel Piñol to uphold the rights and welfare of farmers and consumers, in the light of the reversal by the Supreme Court of its decision on the controversial Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)“talong” (eggplant) case.
Seven months after its landmark decision permanently enjoining the field testing of BT talong, the Supreme Court on July 26 reversed its ruling on the basis of “mootness” and granted the petitions for motion for reconsideration filed by pro-genetically-modified organism (GMO) proponents.
In a similar development, the controversial genetically modified GR2E Golden Rice variety, which is still being pushed in the Philippines, recently received a positive evaluation from the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA), concurring the variety’s safety and nutrition.
The International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) said the provitamin-A biofortified rice variety has completed its food safety evaluation from the USFDA, its third international nod after approvals from the Food Standards Australia New Zealand and Health Canada earlier this year.
Sustainable Agriculture via Seed Banks
“Our advocacy to farmers in Agro-Eco Philippines is to preserve our old seeds and cross-bred them with our current varieties. The same with rice, we have preserved old seeds as rice breeders so we won’t depend on GM crops for our seeds. And this is how we in our small way can contribute to sustainable agriculture,” Geraldo said.

Environment Day on June 5, 2018 (photo by Carl Cabaraban)
Already, farmers from Benguet, Pangasinan, Aurora, Rizal, and Iloilo banded together as part of the worldwide initiative dubbed the Seed School and Farmers’ Capacity Building Programto create food security and cultivate food diversity by simply saving seeds of traditional varieties.
Putting seeds in the control of smallholder farmers and sharing them at the community level is one way to contribute to future food diversity and security. The program seeks to enable organic practitioners to produce and distribute seeds locally, and to spread seed-saving techniques through direct, farmer-to-farmer exchanges.
Yolanda Esguerra, executive director of PMPI and national coordinator of Salakyag 2018, said this situation is typical of the way the present economic system is supported by a legal structure that allows the plunder of nature under the guise of laws minimizing and managing environmental destruction.
“There has to be a totally new framework that would consider the inherent rights of nature to exist, flourish and regenerate for the good of all creation, not just to minimize and manage its destruction. And the whole capitalist economic system is profit-driven, where nature is all that we have.”
Esguerra said Salakyag is a timely platform to uphold the rights of nature “as equal in importance to the rights of human beings.”
“The modern world has produced people so disconnected with nature who only see its usefulness in relation to themselves. The natural perspective should be the ability to appreciate the links and usefulness of each of the species to each other.”
“We call on government to dialogue to institute measures to protect the most vulnerable groups, from the impact of natural disaster and man-made destruction. We ask the lawmakers to pass the green bills: Alternative Mineral Management Bill, National Land Use Act, and Forest Resources Bill and the creation of the Disaster Resiliency Department.”
Salt-resistant rice could feed a
climate-change ravaged world
After decades of
failed attempts around the world, China has emerged as a leader in developing
salt-resistant plants resilient to the effects of climate change.
THIS RICE COULD SAVE LIVES
Public Domain - Researcher Yuan Longping successfully
harvested red wild rice in salt water for the second time this year.
JUN—05—2018 12:07PM EST
You know the
old saying: when life gives you completely preventable freshwater availability
problems caused by climate change, spend decades and millions of dollars
genetically manipulating crops so that they can survive in the inhospitable
world that we’ve created.
This is
exactly what’s happening in China. This week, the South
China Morning Post reported that
scientist Yuan Longping harvested the most successful, efficient breed of
salt-resistant rice in the country’s history, and that its crop yield even more
efficient than regular rice.
If implemented
widely, salt-resistant crops have huge potential to save areas threatened by
food and water insecurity. In upcoming decades, climate change
threatens regions around the world with a lethal cocktail of different
conditions that make it more difficult to grow plants. Droughts will become
more severe and more likely, even in areas that aren’t used to droughts.
This harvest
is Longping’s second successful salt-resistant rice harvest in the past year,
but this round of crops took huge leaps forward. In October, Longping grew more
than 4.5 metric tons of rice per hectare of land (compared to the non-salt
resistant average of 3 metric tons). This month’s harvest yielded 7.5 metric
tons.
Climate change
also sets off an environmental feedback that causes sea levels around the world
to rise. For areas that don’t exist far above sea level—like small islands,
areas of Pakistan, India, and Australia, and even Maryland—sea level rise can spell severe,
consistent salt-water flooding. Since all of these areas rely on agriculture,
consistent saltwater flooding could spell a hunger crisis if crops aren’t
successful.
Bigger
picture, it’s important to note that once an area starts growing salt-resistant
plants, it’s next to impossible to get the soil back to its original state.
Once a plot of land has been converted for saltwater planting, only saltwater
plants can grow there for the indefinite future. As China National Rice
Research Institute researcher Huang Shiwen told the South
China Morning Post in 2017,
“Planting this rice will keep the land salty forever. It cannot be used to grow
other crops.”
Still, given
the scale of the risk that climate change presents to food and water supplies
around the world, progress in salt-resistant crop research from scientists is
undoubtedly a step in the right direction.
The need and
demand for salt-resistant crops has never been higher, but developing them
hasn’t been easy. Scientists around the world have been working since the 1960s to engineer crops that are
resistant to salt, but only recently has genetic knowledge advanced to the
point where a more salt-resistant crop is possible. Plants are resistant to
salt due to a combination of different genes, and until recently it
was more practical to filter the salt from sea water than to breed a
salt-resistant plant.
It’s not
evident if salt-resistant crops such as rice are ready to be produced at scale
yet. According to the South China Morning Post’s
reporting from Longping’s October rice harvest, citizens have to pay a
“premium” price. Some citizens told the Post that they could justify
the purchase due to the above-average taste, and the fact that saltwater acts
as a natural pesticide, killing off harmful bacteria. But
the salt-resistant rice isn’t yet a realistic purchase for the 55 million people living below the poverty line in
China.
Delta Council
Heralds Mississippi Contributions to U.S. Ag
By Josh Hankins
CLEVELAND, MS -- Wear cotton.
Eat rice. And catfish. That was the theme of the Delta Council
meeting here last Friday. Per tradition,
there was no shortage of seersucker suits as the annual gathering is a celebration
of cotton clothing and all things Mississippi agriculture, including rice.
Attendees included Governor Phil Bryant, Lieutenant Governor Tate
Reeves, Senator Roger Wicker, Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, and more than 2,000
Delta Council members.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Scott Pruitt
was this year's keynote speaker and he discussed President Trump's
"America First" agenda, sharing his belief that countries around the
globe are able to benefit when we put the United States first.
Pruitt outlined the EPA's three-pronged agenda that includes
revisiting the basics in the fundamental rule of law, citing previous agency
action on Waters of the United States (WOTUS) as an inconsistent uncertainty
for the agriculture industry. Second,
the EPA is focused on the process of policy, as Pruitt explained that
regulation by litigation is an example of abuse within the system. And third, EPA is focused on cooperative
federalism. "It is important to
meet with and hear directly from the people of Mississippi so that we can work
cooperatively to advance the President's agenda and protect the state's vital
natural resources," he said.
"Our biggest challenge is to change the attitude that true
environmentalism is prohibition," Pruitt said. "True environmentalism is not prohibition
but is simply stewardship. The President
has rejected the misguided narrative that we must choose between protecting the
environment and growing the economy. We
can do both, and we have done both - better than any other nation, in
fact."
Tributes were made during the ceremony to recognize two very
special Mississippians who both are stepping aside in 2018 but together helped
shape the Delta Council and Mississippi agriculture: the long-time director of the Delta Council,
Chip Morgan, and Senator Thad Cochran.
"This event emphasizes the legacy and tradition associated
with southern rice," said USA Rice President & CEO Betsy Ward. "The work of the Delta Council is
instrumental in advancing the U.S. agriculture industry, and we appreciate our
longstanding partnership as we work together to promote U.S. rice. It was heartwarming to hear the tribute to
Senator Cochran but also see Chip Morgan get the thanks and recognition he so
richly deserves for his service to the Delta Council and the entire rice
industry."

Cheap imported rice to flood market
June 6, 2018, 7:36 AM
By Genalyn Kabiling and Madelaine
Miraflor
Cheap imported rice will flood
the local market soon, starting this month after the series of importation led
by the National Food Authority (NFA).

(MANILA BULLETIN)
With the additional imports,
Trade and Industry Secretary Ramon Lopez said there would be NFA rice that
would be sold again at P27 and P32 “to provide that accessibility to low-priced
rice.”
“This will of course drag down
even prices of commercial rice, which as you know, despite the lack of supply,
we were able to still hold on it at the level of P39 to P49 for regular and
well-milled rice,” Lopez added.
Lopez said the trade department
is closely monitoring prices of commodities including food products to ensure
retailers abide with the agreed suggested retail prices. He added that the
Department of Agriculture plans to impose SRP in agricultural products sold in
markets too.
Finance Secretary Carlos
Dominguez III said the passage of the proposed rice tariffication law could be
one of the best ways to address high food prices. Such proposal is expected to
reduce inflation by around 0.4 percentage points if implemented in the third
quarter.
“It will bring down rice prices
by around P7 per kilo for the Filipino families and reduce inflation to below 4
percent by the second half of the year,” he said.
Just recently, five suppliers
from Thailand and Singapore were awarded the contract to supply 250,000 metric
tons (MT) of 25 percent broken, well-milled long grain white rice, to the NFA
under the open tender bidding held on May 22.
Nineteen suppliers participated
in the bidding, but only 13 passed the eligibility and technical requirements,
and only five eventually passed the post-qualification evaluation of the NFA’s
special bids and awards committee.
The companies awarded the
contracts are Thai Hua (2511) Co., Ltd. for the supply of 75,000 MT; Capital
Cereals Co. Ltd. for 43,000 MT; Asia Golden Rice Co., Ltd. for 58,500 MT;
Ponglarp Co. Ltd. for 36,000 MT; and Olam International Limited for 37,500 MT.
Olam International is based in
Singapore while the other suppliers are from Thailand.
The fresh stocks will form part of the NFA’s food security stocks during the lean months of July to September.
The fresh stocks will form part of the NFA’s food security stocks during the lean months of July to September.
Bulk of the volume or 200,000 MT
are scheduled to arrive in the country not later than July 31, 2018, while the
remaining 50,000 MT should be delivered not later than August 31, 2018.
The total volume was divided into
seven lots with corresponding discharge ports in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao to
facilitate distribution to the markets and intended beneficiaries.
Gov’t to gov’t bidding
The open tender importation will
be on top of the importation of 250,000 MT of rice through a
government-to-government bidding that was also held recently.
Only the governments of Vietnam and Thailand – the two countries with a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) on government-to-government rice importation with the Philippines – were invited to supply the 250,000 MT, consisting of 200,000 MT of 25 percent and 50,000 MT of 15 percent broken rice.

First tranche of imported rice
The first tranche of imported
rice from Thailand and Vietnam should start arriving this week until June 15.
An initial shipment totaling
16,000 MT or 320,000 bags from Vietnam arrived at the ports of Subic (11,000
MT) and Surigao (5,000 MT) last June 2.
It will be immediately unloaded and is estimated to be back in the market within the week.
It will be immediately unloaded and is estimated to be back in the market within the week.
“As a result, regular patrons of
good quality government-subsidized rice can now heave a sigh of relief,” NFA
said.
Bidding under MAV scheme
Aside from the
government-to-private and government-to-government importation, the bidding for
the importation of 805,000 MT of rice under the Minimum Access Volume (MAV)
scheme of the World Trade Organization (WTO) is also happening in a few days.
Slapped with a lower tariff, MAV
refers to the volume of commodities that is allowed to be imported by a member
country as a commitment to WTO.
Rice importation under this new
program is pursuant to Republic Act No. 8178, or an act replacing quantitative
import restrictions (QR) on agriculture products, except rice, with tariffs.
To compensate for the expiration
of QR, the Philippine government unilaterally extended the MAV commitments of
805,200 metric tons (MT) and corresponding tariff concessions to maintain
special treatment through Executive Order No. 23 (EO 23).
NFA statement
Meanwhile, the NFA clarified that
it has no plans yet for further rice imports at this time.
NFA administrator Jason Aquino
said the agency will first focus on the immediate presence of NFA rice in the
markets, as imports arrive, to possibly pull down and stabilize rice prices.
The NFA is also considering new
modes of rice distribution to effectively cater to the needs of the intended
beneficiaries of good quality government subsidized rice.
Inflation rate to level off
In Seoul, President Duterte’s
economic managers assured Filipinos that rice as well as domestic fuel are
expected to temper down amid the anticipation that the Philippines’ inflation
rate would start to level off,
Finance Secretary Carlos
Dominguez III tried to assure Filipinos about the eventual drop in the
country’s inflation rate even after it accelerated to 4.6 percent last May.
“It seems to me that the
inflation rate is, I hope, levelling off. I think this is a sign of levelling
off and probably dropping,” Dominguez said during a press conference on the
sidelines of President Duterte’s official visit here.
“In the second half of the year,
the inflation should be on the downtrend. In fact the estimate for the
inflation for next year is below 4 percent,” he added.
Dominguez cited that world oil prices have been on the “downtrend” based on the government’s close monitoring.
Dominguez cited that world oil prices have been on the “downtrend” based on the government’s close monitoring.
He acknowledged that the latest
inflation spike has been largely propelled by higher tobacco, rice, fish, and
corn prices as well as world crude cost.
He assured that the government is
“taking steps to stay ahead of the situation.”
“I would like to emphasize that
TRAIN is not the sole reason for the increase in inflation. The effect of high
global oil prices driven by unfavorable geopolitical events, along with the
import quotas on rice has affected prices on a much larger scale,” he said.

Duty on
Rice Import: Govt to raise it to 'protect growers'
12:00 AM, June
05, 2018 / LAST MODIFIED: 12:06 AM, June 05, 2018
The government
will re-impose 28 percent duty on import of rice to protect the growers as the
country got a bumper paddy production in the boro season, said Commerce Minister
Tofail Ahmed yesterday.
The move comes after many farmers
sold their produce to middlemen at prices a lot below their production cost in
the face of surging rice imports and increased domestic production this year.
Sheikh Mushfikur Rahman, a farmer in
Bagerhat, said, “This is a delayed a move. The declaration should have been
earlier. This is not going to benefit small farmers as many of them have
already sold their produce. This will benefit the middlemen.”
He said he would be one of the few
of growers who hold on to a portion of their produce until the price rises.
Now, prices of paddy at the farmers
end are between Tk 17.5 and Tk 22.5 per kg depending on the quality, according
to two millers and Mushfik. But the prices are below the government's estimated
production of cost of Tk 24 per kg.
Local farmers are not getting the
proper prices from the sales as excessive rice was imported with only 2 percent
duty in place, Tofail told journalists at a press conference at his secretariat
office.
He said the re-imposed duty would
come into effect with the proposal of the upcoming national budget. Finance
Minister AMA Muhith is scheduled to unveil budgetary measures on June 7.
Sazzad Zahir Chandan, general
secretary of Bangladesh Krishak Samity, a rights organisation for farmers, said
his organisation was against import of rice during the harvest season.
He echoed Mushfik and said farmers
would be unable to reap the benefits of the increased duty.
“Millers and ruling party men who
supply the staple to government silos will make profit now,” he said.
Last year, the government reduced
the duty on rice imports in two phases to increase supply and curb price spike
owing to crop losses in the north where floods had a devastating impact.
The north accounts for more than
half the boro production.
The government first reduced duty
on import of rice to 10 percent in June last year and in August the duty was
further reduced to 2 percent to raise the stock of rice.
As a result, rice import soared to
39 lakh tonnes in July-May, up from only 1.33 lakh tonnes the previous year,
according to the food ministry data.
According to US Department of
Agriculture, the rice deficit for Bangladesh was an estimated 10 lakh tonnes.
“We witnessed a bumper paddy
production this season. So, it has been decided that the duty on import of rice
would be taken to the previous level,” said Tofail, adding, “There would not be
any bad impact on the local market if the duty is re-imposed, as we have a lot
of stock of the staple.
“If the duty is not raised from the
2 percent, the traders will import a lot of rice and the local farmers will
lose interest in growing rice in the next season,” the minister said.
“If needed, we will lower the duty
again,” said Tofail.
KM Layek Ali, general secretary of
Bangladesh Auto Major and Husking Mills Association, said duty hike would help
millers to clear their stock, which they could not get rid of due to low demand
and imported rice flooding the market.Layek said many farmers, including some
with small farms, still have paddy in stock. “Those farmers, who could dry
their paddy, despite inclement weather during and after the harvest, have
retained a portion,” he said.
Mushfik said prices of paddy fell
to as low as Tk 15 per kg in his locality last month and many marginal growers
had to sell their produce. “And marginal farmers, who have sold paddy, will
have to buy rice at higher prices in the coming days if the prices go up. They
could suffer at both ends,” he said.
At the briefing, Tofail said India
imposed anti-dumping duty on Bangladeshi jute to protect the interest of their
own farmers.“We are also imposing duty to protect the interest of our farmers.”
Some 6.3 percent more paddy was
produced this boro season compared to the last season, according to a report by
the United States Department of Agriculture last week. During this boro season,
paddy acreage was 1 lakh more than that of last year, the report said.

NFA rice imports
start arriving
Philippine Daily Inquirer / 05:04 AM June 05, 2018
Provinces in Luzon and Mindanao can expect
the government’s subsidized rice varieties to be back in the markets within
this week as the first tranche of rice imports have already arrived in the
country.
According to National Food Authority (NFA)
spokesperson Rex Estoperez, 16,000 metric tons (MT) of rice were unloaded in
the ports of Subic and Surigao during the weekend.
The presence of two NFA rice varieties in
the market, priced at P27 and P32 a kilo, respectively, is expected to lower
the prices of the staple. Since January, retail prices have not stopped
increasing following the tightness in the supply from the government’s grains
agency.
Latest data from the Philippine Statistics
Authority (PSA) showed average retail prices for regular-milled and well-milled
rice climbed by 7.08 percent and 5.22 percent, respectively, to P43.93 and
P40.23 per kg from a year ago levels.
Estoperez said the initial shipments of
rice imports would be distributed in provinces surrounding Subic and Surigao.
Meanwhile, rice shipments for Metro Manila, estimated at 1.5 million bags, is
expected to arrive in the succeeding tranches.
While the agency has assured consumers that
its priority was to stabilize the supply and prices of rice in the market
before it replenishes its stocks, Estoperez said a portion of the shipment
would be set aside for NFA’s inventory.
Part of the agency’s mandate is to maintain
15 days’ worth of rice supply at any given time, but this has yet to be
fulfilled by the agency.
The National Food Authority (NFA) Council
approved last February the importation of 250,000 metric tons of rice to
replenish the NFA buffer stock that was used in part to help stabilize rice
prices.
The rice importation will come mainly from
Vietnam and Thailand.
To ensure that the importation process
would be “more inclusive and transparent,” the mode of importation was
“government to private importation or open tender procurement.”
NFA management earlier asked that it be
allowed to use its standby authority to import 250,000 metric tons of rice as
its buffer stock of rice was down to only 64,000 metric tons, or good for only
two days.
The government had insisted that the
country had no rice shortage as 3.8 million metrics ton of rice or equivalent
to 121 days of rice supply were available.
The NFA council also discussed raising the
NFA’s buying price of P17 a kilo for clean and dry palay but the Bangko Sentral
ng Pilipinas, The Neda Board and the Department of Finance objected as this
would be inflationary, or cause prices of basic commodities to increase.
Scientists To Grow Rice In The Middle Of
The Desert Using Seawater
THE IDEA IS TO INCREASE THE PRODUCTION
OF FOOD IN THE REGION AND HELP PRESERVE FRESHWATER
RESERVES. CATMANC/SHUTTERSTOCK
By
Josh Davis
The dry, arid deserts of the
United Arab Emirates (UAE) may soon be covered in lush, wet rice paddies. This
may sound like an impossible transformation, but if Chinese scientists and
an Emirati Sheikh are to be believed, it is a very conceivable future.
The plan is to use a recently
developed saltwater-resistant rice strain to plant the crop on large
swathes of the Middle Eastern desert, and then irrigate the land with diluted
seawater. This would allow the region to dramatically increase the amount of food it can
produce and at the same time help to protect its valuable freshwater reserves.
The possibility of this
ambitious plan has only been realized due to the creation of a new strain of rice by Chinese scientists that's
been bred to grow in saltwater. It has actually taken four decades to get to
this point, after a researcher found a wild species of rice growing near
mangrove forests, which only tend to live in brackish coastal waters.
Realizing the significance of this, the researcher then set
out to cross-breed this wild, saltwater-tolerant species of rice with
other rice species that would enable large-scale farming. Over time, they
managed to create up to eight different strains of salt-tolerant rice, but none
of them produced a yield high enough to make them an economically viable crop.
It was not until last year that
it was reported scientists had made a breakthrough and managed to double the
yield of the newly developed rice. It has already been grown and sold in
parts of China, with a long-term goal to boost the nation’s rice production by
up to 20 percent and plant the crop on an extra 1 million square
kilometers (386,000 square miles) of land that has been under-utilized due to
the high amount of salinity in the soil.
Now, the researchers have teamed up with Sheikh Saeed Bin Ahmed
Al Maktoum from the ruling family of Dubai. Their long-term aim is
cover 10 percent of the UAE – which has an area of roughly 83,600
square kilometers (32,300 square miles) – with rice paddies, helping to
maintain food security within the region.
The idea isn’t to stop there though, as the Sheikh hopes to
promote seawater rice farming not only in the UAE but across the Middle
East, using desalination plants to dilute the pure seawater and green larger
portions of the desert.
Dadaji Ramaji Khobragade: Rural Inventor
Who Revolutionalised Rice Farming Breathes His Last

when he would make at least one visit to his farm every day. The veteran
stopped working when his body would no longer back up his mind and his ideas.

Nagpur: He fought for
his rights but could never quite get his due.
Dadaji Ramaji Khobragade, the inventor of HMT-Sona and ten other popular rice varieties died on Sunday at the Search hospital in Gadchiroli. The Dalit farmer, who won global acclaim for his innovations, had suffered a crippling paralytic attack a month ago.
Dadaji Ramaji Khobragade, the inventor of HMT-Sona and ten other popular rice varieties died on Sunday at the Search hospital in Gadchiroli. The Dalit farmer, who won global acclaim for his innovations, had suffered a crippling paralytic attack a month ago.
He is survived by his son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren.
The 80-year-old had been unwell for the past six
months. He was frail and his listening capabilities were hampered.
For his work and farm innovations, Dadaji earned a
lot of goodwill and support from many quarters including institutions and
individuals. This was something that kept pushing him to work, even in his old
age.
Dadaji was active until last year when he would make at least one visit to his farm every day. The veteran stopped working when his body would no longer back up his mind and his ideas.
During his childhood, he reared the village cattle and could never go to school. As an adult, he invented 11 popular rice varieties that occupy vast stretches of paddy land in central India.
HMT-Sona gives an average yield of 40–45 quintals per hectare and has short grains, high rice recovery and good aroma. The variety is now marketed in Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra. Chinnour, Nanded-92, Nanded-Hira, Vijay-Nanded, Dipak-Ratna and the latest DRK-I and II, were some of his other finds with an average yield of about 20 quintals per acre in rain-fed conditions.
For many years, the octogenarian lived in a dingy hut in Chandrapur’s Nanded village. A few years ago, with the money from his awards and help from a few people, Dadaji built a house that also became his seed godown. Awards, medals and citations would hang by the walls in a room.
He first shot to fame when he accused the state-run Punjabrao Krishi Vidyapeeth (PKV) for taking credit for the brand that he had originally bred on his farm and given to the university scientists. This was in early 2000s.
While Dadaji claimed the PKV had appropriated his variety, the PKV held that sourced it from him and significantly improved the variety with their scientific inputs. The issue remains unresolved till date. PKV never officially gave Dadaji his credit in its varietal release proposal.
The National Innovation Foundation (NIF) recognised his work in 2003-04 and the Maharashtra government gave him the Krishi Bhushan and Krishi Ratna awards for his innovations. One of his varieties called Chinnour is akin to the Basmati of the north. He named his latest variety after himself: DRK.
In 2010, Dadaji’s name figured in the Forbes list of top seven Indian rural entrepreneurs, after it was picked up by the IIM-Ahmadabad professor and founder of the Honey Bee Network Anil Gupta. Dadaji could not make any sense of what it meant. “I am happy, but I don’t know what it means to me and to my fellow farmers,” he said.
When I first met Dadaji in August 2005, he recounted to me a number of heists that took place on his farm every day. Someone stole pumpkins one day; the other day, it would be a wooden cot that he kept for himself. In summers, people stole wild berries and even rice.
He wasn’t bothered about those thefts as much as he was about the fact that the PKV never quite officially acknowledged the HMT-Sona as his discovery. Even the name was given by Dadaji when he went to the market in Mul town, back in early 1990, and a trader asked him to suggest a name for the rice variety.
“I’d wear an HMT-Sona watch on my wrist,” Dadaji recounted in my first interview. “I looked at it and told the trader ‘let it be named HMT-Sona’.” It took the consumers by a storm for its fragrance and taste.
In 1983, Dadaji noticed three yellow-coloured strains of paddy corns in his farm. “They were different," he told me. The innovator preserved them and sowed them again on his farm the following year. The rice it yielded was soft and tasty with better oil contents. He repeated the process over seven years with the selection method. A decade later, it became a hit with the local farmers.
Dadaji had bred this particular variety from the Patel-3 variety that he would plant on his fields. He had an eye for the best grain and a heart for farming. As his son Mitrajeet would once tell us: “Dadaji spoke to his paddy strains as if they were his kids, softly and lovingly.”
He was uneducated, but he was deeply inspired by Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar. Dadaji was a Mahar by caste and an Ambedkarite by political belief. “I stopped skinning the cattle on the call of Dr Ambedkar,” he once told me. “I never got to see Babasaheb, but my generation came out of our past shadows because of him.”
During one of our interactions at his home, Dadaji told me how he was landless once. “This present land is my daughter-in-law’s land. One-and-a-half acres, it came to her as property from her side.” That land had dual purposes — it was his family’s sustenance and his lab.
“No one told ever me how to breed the varieties; I kept doing it out of my love for the best grains.”
Like a true parent breeder, he could separate the real from the fake. “This is not my rice,” he once told me of a variety I had taken to him. A Nagpur grocer sold it as HMT-Sona. Dadaji said it wasn’t.
He gave me a few kgs of the original, the rice he had found on his farm and bettered it. It tasted much better and was qualitatively different from the one I had bought from a shop in my home city.
Dadaji once tried experimenting with paddy and turmeric as an inter-cropping system on his farm. He succeeded with the yields but held commodity prices were a key factor. “Farmers will remain poor unless they get remunerative prices and capital to start allied activities,” he told me.
In 2006, Dadaji took on the Vilasrao Deshmukh-government for having gifted him with a fake gold medal. Dadaji discovered that a 14-carat gold medal that he got from the government as part of the Krishi-Bhushan award package was actually made of sub-standard silver whose value was no more than Rs 500. “I am shocked,” an agitated Dadaji said then. “Why insult us like this?”
Dadaji was presented a 50 gram 14-carat gold medal, cash prize of Rs 25,000 and a citation from the Maharashtra Governor for his achievement. “I used all my cash awards to buy some land for research work.” When he wanted to sell the gold medal to buy a motor-pump, he was told the medal was actually a dud.
Dadaji returned his award in anger, prompting other medallists to return their awards and the state government to launch an inquiry and apologise to the farmers by reinstating their awards with original gold medals. Dadaji favoured the intellectual property rights to be bestowed upon farmers like him.
Seed savers like him were crucial to food security and seed diversity, he once told me at his home. “Farmers must not merely complain of the problems,” he held. “They should also try to be a solution.”

Exports of Rice, the largest commodity in India's agri basket, rose 12% in volumes to 9.89 lakh tonnes in April on good demand for the nonbasmati Rice, according to the provisional statement from the Agricultural and Processed Foods Export Development Authority (APEDA). The country exported 619665 tonnes of non-basmati Rice worth $262 million in April, rose 25.5% as compared to 493441 tonnes ($199 million) in the same month last year. Exports of basmati Rice totalled 370183 tonnes in April, down nearly 5% as compared to 389542 tonnes in the same month last year. Though, the revenue from basmati Rice exports rose 9.3% year-onyear to $410 million during the month, according to APEDA data.
World Cotton consumption is estimated to rise to 26.7 million tonnes in 2018/19, while world Cotton production is estimated at 25.7 million tonnes, the International Cotton Advisory Committee (ICAC) said in its latest report. Production in China is projected to decrease to 5.6 million tonnes in 2018/19 based on reduced planting area, while consumption is forecasted to increase to 8.4 million tonnes. US production is projected to decrease to 4.2 million tonnes with exports projected to increase 3% to 3.3 million tonnes in 2018/19. Reduced yields in 2017/18 in India are contributing to lowered planted area for 2018/19 with exports projected at 840,000 tonnes representing a 24% decrease from the previous season. Production in Brazil for the 2017/18 season is estimated to be 1.9 million tonnes, a 26% increase from 2016/17, with 900,000 tonnes projected for export.
India has made unmatched progress in Coconut cultivation in the last four years and now it has become the leading country in coconut production and productivity. Productivity increased to 11516 fruits per hectare in 2017-18 as compared to 10122 in 2013-14. Between 2014 and 2018, 13,117 hectare was brought under new plantation as compared to 9,561 hectare during 2010-2014.

Tea industry in West Bengal is heading towards major uncertainty as over 7 lakh tea workers plan to launch an aggressive protest, including calls for an idefinite strike, demanding an immediate resolution of unsettled wages by June 25. Despite numerous meetings, seminars and symposiums, negotiation have failed to come up with an amicable solution for the prolonged dispute over wages since the past four years. “Now pushed to the brink, we will give ultimatum to the government on June 9 and look for alternative steps from June 14. If positive outcome does not come by the 25th, we will go forward with an aggressive movement. It may also include the calling of an indefinite strike, if needed,” said Saman Pathak Centre of Indian Trade Unions, West Bengal state Working Committee member and a major functionary in the movement.
With the global trends in sugar prices being subdued, the Government’s announcement of 2 million MT of sugar exports under the Minimum Indicative Export Quota (MIEQ) scheme in March 2018 is yet to commence fully. Subsequent announcement of production subsidy of Rs 55/MT announced in May 2018 too has not resulted in raising sugar exports. As per an ICRA note, the oversupply scenario therefore continues to prevail in the domestic market, resulting in sugar prices touching a low of Rs. 27,500/MT in may.Sabyasachi Majumdar, Senior Vice President & Group Head, ICRA Ratings, “Domestic sugar production for SY2018 is set to cross 31 million MT from 20.3 million MT in the previous year. This has been driven principally by a recovery in production in Maharashtra, North Karnataka and Uttar Pradesh (UP). We expect domestic sugar consumption to increase to around 25.0 million MT in SY2018 from 24.5 million MT in SY2017. As per our estimates, even after meeting the target of exporting 2 million MT, the domestic market would still have around 2.5 – 3.0 million MT of excess sugar stocks than the normative stock for the next season.

Philippines:
May inflation surprises on the downside
The May inflation rate of 4.6%,
which is at low end of central bank forecast, reduces pressure to hike policy
rates later this month. Uncertain second-round effects should keep BSP vigilant
May
inflation surprised on the downside as food, non-alcoholic beverages and
utilities posted MoM disinflation. This brought annualized headline inflation
to only 4.6%, below the market’s median forecast of 4.9% and at the low end of
Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP’s) forecast of 4.6% to 5.4%. The government
encouraged rice millers in the major rice producing regions to sell some
inventory at a 10% discount to April prices. Tighter monitoring of retail prices
also helped. We anticipate that the delivery of government imported rice to
major ports this month will bring back low-priced subsidized rice to the
market and offset other price pressures. Oil prices have eased also but a
weaker PHP is likely prevent the full translation of the drop in global
oil prices at the pump. We believe that recent developments indicate that
inflation is at or near the peak. These developments also cut the pressure on
BSP to hike policy rates this month. However, we still expect BSP to hike
policy rates at the 21 June meeting to pre-empt second-round effects and
stabilize inflation expectations. Tri-partite regional wage boards are
considering higher minimum wages while regulators deliberate on higher minimum
transport fares. BSP’s 4.6% and 3.4% 2018 and 2019 inflation forecasts assume a
3.6% increase in minimum wages and a modest increase in transport fares.
Significantly higher increases may result in a double peak of inflation
while keeping inflation expectations on an uptrend. The other consideration is
a weakening PHP. Further weakness could still push prices higher. Manufacturers
have signaled price increases to cover higher costs resulting from higher oil
prices and a weaker PHP. While we argue for a rate hike this month, the
likelihood is now closer to even.

PARLIAMENT. Rice
farmers under their umbrella body Rice Association of Uganda (RAU) have
petitioned Speaker Rebecca Kadaga over ‘selective’ tax concession.
While meeting Kadaga on Monday, the farmers from
Butaleja district led by the chairperson of the Association, Rachel Mbabazi
expressed dissatisfaction on how government is reportedly favouring some rice
importers by giving them 100% tax holidays.
“Government has been favouring some importers or
companies by giving them waivers of 100% importation all the times. They claim
they are millers and that they don't have rice and want tax concession to
import the rice and yet farmers are stuck with rice without market,” Mbabazi
said.
It has had an adverse effect on rice farmers for the
last 3years. In 2004, government adopted a new policy for rice growing and the
idea was to encourage production of rice on a large scale.
This policy has since then made rice growing very
profitable until 2015 when government started giving concession to companies to
reduce on import duty.
According to Mbabazi, this selective concession to
companies has left farmers with no market for their rice.
“We urge Parliament through you, the Speaker to help
government effect the East Africa Community Common External Tariff. It is not
that we are against concessions, but we want it to be done within the law and
if we are to change the tariffs then it should be done by law, not selectively,”
Mbabazi said, adding that selective application of concessions creates
loopholes for smuggling.
RAU has been pushing government to change erratic
policies on the importation of rice, which affect domestic production and
prices of rice.
Mbabazi told Kadaga that on April 16 this year, a
group of rice companies through an association-Rice Millers Council of Uganda
met President Yoweri Museveni where they asked to be given a tax concession
which was reportedly approved by the President.
Speaker Kadaga vowed to notify the President and also
write to the minister of Finance to ensure that the matter is comprehensively
handled. “For now, I will not say much, let me go and study your petition and I
will write to the ministry of finance and also notify the President,” Kadaga
said.
FG targets 8m tonnes of rice in 2018 wet
season
Chief Audu Ogbeh, Minister of Agriculture
Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Chief Audu Ogbeh,
made this known in Abuja.
While commenting on the accomplishment of Buhari’s administration
in the last three years, Ogbeh, noted that the nation was currently producing
between 5.8 million and 6 million tonnes of paddy.
He added that the goal was to hit 9 million tonnes by 2019.
The minister, stated that the rice facet of the agricultural sector has had the
highest upgrade and recorded the greatest achievement.
According to him, the combined effort of the Central Bank of
Nigeria (CBN) through its Anchor Borrowers’ Programme (ABP) made the huge
difference in the sector.
He noted that the combined effort has cut-down rice importation by
95% in the last 3 years, stating that the development has also enabled the
government save 5 million dollars daily.
In his words: “The number of farmers growing paddy rice has risen
from 5 million to 12.2 million; more farmers are coming in as we clear more
land for them and arrange irrigation facilities.
“By the end of this planting season which we are entering, we
should be approaching 8 million tonnes of paddy, which will give us roughly 6.5
million tonnes of processed rice.
“We hope that by this time next year, we should be targeting 9
million tonnes of paddy, because the good thing is that, rice grows everywhere
in the country.
“Irrigation has to come on board for us to achieve this because as
long as we depend on rain-fed agriculture, we would have difficulties in
achieving the target.”
Ogbeh stated the country currently has 27 operating large rice
mills and over 5,000 small rice mills scattered in various parts of the
country.
Deviating from rice production, the minister noted that the
country is currently the largest yam producer, the second in sorghum
production, third in millet production and fourth in cashew nut production in
Africa.
He disclosed that Nigeria earned 700 million dollars from cashew
nut sales in the first quarter of 2018 – with an increased number of exports
from Tin Can Island Port, Lagos, by 180 per cent in the last two years.
“We are also leaders in cassava production but we are not doing
well enough in cassava processing and value addition,’’ Ogbeh explained.
Paddy crop to cover 4.4m
acres in Punjab
APP
Department had deputed training teams which are
visiting village to village for providing proper guidance and assistance about
the use of inputs, nursery sowing and transfer of plants into fields to the
rice growers in the Punjab.
The basic concept of the programme is to create
awareness among the growers about the use of recommended seed and proper use of
fertilizer for attain better yield of the crop in the Province. The agriculture
department had directed the paddy growers that they should only use recommended
seeds for obtaining better out of the crop in their respective areas.
In Sialkot, the agriculture department had also
initiated a well-knitted training programme for the paddy growers on the
preparation of nurseries and cultivation of paddy crop aimed at attaining the
fixed target in Sialkot district.
The local agriculture department had also
initiated farmers training programme in 1442 villages of Sialkot, Daska, Pasrur
and Sambrial tehsils of Sialkot district. As many as 29 teams were busy in
imparting training to the rice growers for enhancing per acre yield, sowing of
paddy nurseries, utilization of irrigation water, pesticides and fertilizer as
well as about the different verities of paddy in Sialkot district, sources
added.

Separately, the Office of Thai Trade Center in Chicago, the US, reported that University of Arkansas and Louisiana State University, two leading research and development centres on US rice varieties and the California Cooperative Rice Research Foundation announced the successful invention of new three fragrant rice varieties, including Jasmine Aroma17, Jasmine CLJ01, and Jasmine Calaroma-201.
The development of three fragrant rice varieties may be a competing threat to Thai hom mali rice because lower prices may affect Thai hom mali rice exports.
This is the US's third jasmine rice development, following JAZZMAN rice in 2006 and JES rice in 2009.
The US succeeded in selling JAZZMAN rice to 48 US states and Hong Kong, Vietnam and the Philippines. While JES rice was distributed under the American Jasmine brand, it was not successful.
Chookiat Ophaswongse, honorary president of Thai Rice Exporters Association, said if the US jasmine rice's taste is close to that of Thai hom mali rice, Thailand will have more competitors in the future.
Thailand should speed up to developing Thai hom mali rice varieties to maintain quality and fragrance. The overuse of chemical fertilisers and hastening harvests will result in deteriorated quality.
From January to May 22, Thailand exported 4.276 million tonnes, up 2.64%, worth US$2.182 billion (69.8 trillion baht), up 23.26%, compared with the same period last year.
The main export markets were China, South Africa, Indonesia and the Philippines.
Thailand targets exporting 10 million tonnes this year.
Global rice demand remains strong, with prices for 100% Thai hom mali rice at $1,270 a tonne, up from $1,250 the previous week, and 5% white rice at $450 a tonne.
