The scientists of Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) Centres, working in diverse discipline said Manipur has been affected by the changing climate.
Trend analysis of weather variables in Imphal under National Innovations on Climate Resilient Agriculture revealed that the mean annual maximum temperature (1954–2014) has been increasing (0.1°C per decade). This was relvealed by the scientists in their research paper report published in Current Science journal in October 2018.
The 20 paged reports called ‘Climate resilient agriculture in Manipur: status and strategies for sustainable development’ is the result of year long work by as many as 11 ICAR scientists who have reviewed a number of sources of information.
Stating that as evident from the last 30 years’ climate data analysis, precipitation rate in northern parts is expected to increase, the scientists said.
The southern districts are expected to experience higher temperature than that of the northern districts.
Total annual precipitation is expected to increase throughout the State. As evident from the last 30 years’ climate data analysis, precipitation rate in northern parts is expected to increase.Greenhouse gas emissions have also increased in Manipur from 1980 to 2005.
Projecting the loss of bio-diversity and extinction of rare/threatened flora and fauna besides projecting decline in crop yields by 10 percent in 2030 in view of the said climate variability, the scientists estimated that the food grain production and requirement of the state would be 77105 and 79323 thousand tonnes respectively by 2050.
Hence, there will be deficit of 2218 thousand tonnes of food grain by 2050, they predicted.
The total food grain production in Manipur (2014–15) was 594.28 thousand tonnes from an area of 292,950 ha.
Otherwise the total gross cropped area the state is 350,290 ha, which account for 15.24 per cent of the total land areas.About 65.93% under rice cultivation.
There are enormous gene pool of rice, maize, cucurbits, legumes, tuber crops, turmeric, ginger and chillies in Manipur which houses more than 500 orchid varieties, 1200 species of medicinal plants, 50 species of fleshy fungi, 121 algae and a few moses, 200 plus fish species, 73 different types of birds, 31 endemic mammals, more than 53 species of bamboos etc, according to the report.
Hence they suggested the need for devising climate proof plan and climate ready policy for climate compatible agricultural development in Manipur. Location-specific climate smart technology baskets need to be devised or introduced and should be demonstrated through participatory approach, for ensuring a climate resilient production system, and a climate resilient ecosystem.

Special Correspondent :
The government has finally decided to export rice to boost morale of farmers who are being deprived of getting fair prices of their produces this year in the wake of good harvest as well as higher private and public stocks of rice.
The sharp fall in paddy prices forced the farmers to lodge widespread protest across the country. 
"The government has decided to export rice to protect farmers interests," Agriculture Minister Dr Abdur Razzak said on Thursday.
Earlier, the government raised import duty on rice to 55 per cent from 28 per cent to support the farmers.
Bangladesh imported a record 3.9 million tonnes of rice in the last fiscal year (2017-18).
But the country now has a surplus of 2.0 million tonnes to 2.5 million tonnes of rice taking advance of bumper paddy yield in the last two consecutive harvesting seasons and massive import, officials said.   
Private traders imported more than 330,000 tonnes of rice in the July-April period, government data showed.
Bangladesh paddy production is expected to reach 35 million tonnes in 2018-19.   
"We will export 1 million-1.5 million tonnes of rice from the surplus production," said Dr Abdur Razzak.   
Earlier, the Ministry of Agriculture engaged in high-level discussions with the Ministries of Food and Commerce for weeks to decide on the rice export.
Both the ministries this week approved, in principal, the rice export decision for the farmers' interest, said the officials. Bangladesh banned overseas sales of some common rice varieties in May 2008 when there was a spike in domestic prices. A year later, it banned all rice exports to help bring rice prices stable in local market.
"Rice exports will not affect the market because we have about 2.0-2.5 million tonnes of surplus rice," Dr Abdur Razzak stated this at a media briefing at his office.
The Agriculture Minister told The New Nation that Bangladesh need to reduce its paddy production cost to stay competitive in global rice export trade. It has to compete with India, Thailand and Vietnam in the export market.
Rice exports by countries totaled an estimated US$24.5 billion in 2018, down by an average 7.1 per cent since 2014 when overall rice shipments were valued at US$26.4 billion, according to various global rice research institutes.
In last year, India stood first among the list of top rice exporting nation with US$7.4 billion export turnover followed by Thailand with $5.6 billion, Vietnam $2.2 billion, Pakistan 2.0 billion and the United States 1.7 billion.
India accounted for 30.1 per cent of global rice exports in 2018 while Thailand 22.7 per cent share.
The value of global rice exports reached U$24.4 billion in 2017.
"Paddy production has become costly in Bangladesh and that has created the problem. We have to adopt mechanization in paddy farming to reduce its production cost," he added.
Dr Abdur Razzak further said that Bangladesh could gain a strong foothold in global rice trade if mechanization is introduced in the paddy farming process. "Major rice exporting nations like Thailand and Vietnam are getting an extra edge in export market due to automation in farming," he added.
The Minister said that the government has also aimed at full mechanization in farming process with an estimated cost of Tk 3000 crore. The fund will be disbursed among the farmers as subsidy to buy mechanized agro tools.     
"The process will complete soon," he added.
Meanwhile, the government has planned to create a buffer stock of food grains (paddy, rice and wheat) to deal with their surplus production and help farmers relieving from price havoc.
"We will procure more food grains from local farmers to protect them from any price shock," Food Minister Sadhan Chandra Majumdar told The New Nation.
He said that his ministry has taken the initiative to increase storage capacity of its silos to support additional procurement.
Majumdar said, "We are building 200 silos across the country so we are able to procure more food grains, especially rice, from next year."
Silos under the Food Department have the storage capacity of at best 2.1 million tonnes of food grains.
 He further said that farmers would also benefit from the initiative.

Russia has reportedly imposed a ban on Pakistani grain after finding Kepra Beetle in a consignment of rice with phyto sanitary certificate of national organization of quarantine duly issued by Pakistan's official agency. This was disclosed by Manzoor Ellahi, Chairman All Pakistan Commercial Exporters Association (APCEA) while talking to Business Recorder.

"We have contracted 10-15 containers of rice with Russian importers per month of processed par boiled 1121 rice. One of our consignments is lying at Karachi Port and two consignments are on the way to Karachi, against which advance payment is already received," he added.

In reply to a question, he said that his buyer has intimated that Russia has imposed temporary ban on import of grain from Pakistan, on the plea that in a batch of rice Kepra Beetle was found despite the fact that the consignment was duly cleared by the Department of Plant Protection, which issues sanitary and phyto sanitary certificates for each grain consignment.

"This will be a big loss to the rice market if immediate action is not taken on our part through Pakistan embassy in Moscow (Russia)," he said, adding that Pakistan will lose huge Russian market of rice," he said, adding that Pakistan exports approximately 35000 tons per annum or rice and other grains to Russia worth $40-50 million. In reply to a question, he said that his company M.M. Ellahi Traders has already received advance from the buyer. He has offered his Russian buyer his money back but he is insisting on supply of rice.

"I have requested the federal government to intervene in the matter and take serious action at the government level because negligence of one exporter should not hurt the business of all other genuine exporters. I have also demanded of the government to take strict action against the official who earned a bad name for the country by issuing certificate for the infested consignment," he added. Meanwhile, Sarhad Chamber of Commerce and Industry has also sent a letter to the federal government seeking help to resolve this issue immediately so that exports should restart.

Star Online Report
The government has decided to export around 10 to 15 lakh tons of rice this year, aiming to save the country’s farmers from losses, Agriculture Minister Muhammad Abdur Razzaque said today.
The minister came up with the discloser while addressing a press conference on the market price of paddy at the auditorium of his ministry office in Dhaka this noon.
As part of the efforts to minimise the farmers’ losses, the government is considering rising incentive more than 20 per cent aiming at encouraging rice export.
At the same time, the government has increased import duty to 55 per cent from 28 per cent to discourage the rice import, he said.
During the press conference, the minister also underscored the need for mechanisation and modernisation in the agriculture sector to make it more profitable.
Earlier on May 18, GM Quader acting Chairman of Jatiya Party, the main opposition in the parliament, at a press conference criticised the government for its plan to export rice saying the government will have to pay much if it exports food crops.
Quader also a former commerce minister at the press conference categorically said that if the government export rice, it will face a serious crisis in purchasing the rice from the market despite paying the double during any natural disaster.

Asia Rice-Top hubs see muted activity; fresh supply to weigh on Vietnam rates

* Bangladesh lifts ban on exports after 10 years
* Quality of rice from new harvest in Vietnam expected to be lower
* Demand for Indian variety subdued
* Thai rates barely changed at $385-$402 a tonne
By Diptendu Lahiri
BENGALURU, May 30 (Reuters) - Export prices for rice were little changed in major hubs in Asia amid few new deals, with rates for the Vietnamese variety expected to fall further in the coming week as the ongoing harvest picks up pace, boosting domestic stocks.
Rates for Vietnam’s 5 percent broken rice RI-VNBKN5-P1 were $350 a tonne on Thursday, flat from last week.
“Prices will likely fall further over the coming weeks as the summer-autumn harvest is picking up pace,” a trader based in Ho chi Minh City said, adding the harvest will peak mid-June.
However, the quality of rice from the new harvest is expected to be lower than that of the winter-spring harvest due to adverse weather and crop diseases, another trader said.
The government estimated Vietnam’s rice exports in the January-May period fell 5.3% from a year earlier.
Meanwhile, Bangladesh, traditionally the world’s fourth biggest rice producer, lifted a long-standing ban on exports on Thursday.
Bangladesh aims to sell as much as 1.5 million tonnes, the country’s agriculture minister Abdur Razzak said, in a move aimed at supporting farmers amid a drastic drop in domestic prices.
Last week, Bangladesh raised rice import duty to 55% from 28% amid widespread protests by growers.
Bangladesh had banned all rice exports in 2009. The country now has a surplus of 2-2.5 million tonnes.
Bangladesh’s neighbour and the world’s top rice exporter India saw subdued demand for its benchmark variety from buyers in Africa.
Prices of India’s 5 percent broken rice RI-INBKN5-P1 were unchanged from last week at $364-$367 per tonne.
“Export demand is weak but we couldn’t cut prices due to the rising rupee,” Ashwin Shah, director at Shah Nanji Nagsi Exports Pvt. Ltd, an exporter based in Nagpur in central India.
A strong rupee reduces exporters’ margin from overseas sales.
Thailand’s benchmark 5-percent broken rice RI-THBKN5-P1 prices were largely unchanged at $385-$402 a tonne on Thursday, free on board Bangkok (FOB), from $385-$400 last week, as it faces stiff competition from other exporters.
There are no major deals in sight, traders said, attributing slight moves in prices to currency fluctuations.
“Prices could not go up because other exporters sell rice cheaper than ours, and the price could not go down because the baht is too strong,” a Bangkok-based rice trader said.
The Thai Commerce Ministry projected the country’s rice exports at 10 million tonnes this year, versus last year’s 11 million tonnes, while the Rice Exporters Association pegged 2019 exports at 9.5 million tonnes.

THE average farmgate price of palay, or unmilled rice, fell 0.5% week on week during the third week of May to P18.26 per kilogram (kg), the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) said.
The PSA said the average wholesale price of well-milled rice fell 0.1% week on week to P39.48. At retail, it fell 0.3% to P43.07.
For regular-milled rice, its wholesale price fell 0.1% week on week to P35.79 during the period. At retail, the price increased 0.03% to P38.75.
The farmgate price of yellow corn grain during the same period inched up 0.4% week on week to P14.06 per kg. The average wholesale price declined 0.4% to P20.21 and the retail price increased 0.6% to P25.02.
The average farmgate price of white corn grain rose 0.9% week on week to P16.34. The average wholesale price increased 0.3% to P22.75, and the average retail price was stable at P29.12, remaining at that level for six weeks straight.
The decline of palay prices for the past months is due to the implementation of the Rice Tariffication Law, which liberalized the importation of rice. Tariffs to be collected from this will be used to improve the production by local farmers through better equipment, hybrid seeds, and source of capital, among others. — Vincent Mariel P. Galang

Rice price fall: Bane of farmers, boon to consumers

Rice prices at record low at the capital’s kitchen markets, much to the worry of paddy growers in the country Mehedi Hasan/Dhaka Tribune

Traders said rice price gradually fell over the last couple of years, though with some ups and downs
Rice prices have continued to fall, bringing relief to consumers but hitting the growers hard.
Prices of the staple were found to have come down by Tk100 for a 50kg bag of rice on an average the last week in Dhaka city markets including Karwan Bazar, Khilgaon, Malibag and Hatirpool.
Traders said rice price gradually fell over the last couple of years, though with some ups and downs.
Haji Md Lokman, general secretary of Karwan Bazar traders’ association Islamia Shanti Samiti, considers the current rice price unprecedented and claims that they did not see such a low price in the last few years.
The rice prices still continued to fall, he told Dhaka Tribune, adding that the fall hurt farmers, rendering them unable even to meet their production cost while it benefited the consumers.
“The price of a 50kg sack of rice fell by Tk500 over the last month,” said Md Hannan, another wholesaler of Karwan Bazar.
He said the price fell sharply since last year. “I can’t recall how long ago I sold the rice at the current price,” he claimed.
Dewan AS Farid, a trader from Malibagh, said he sold rice at the current price more than 10 years ago. 
To keep the price stable, they (traders) had to frequently sell rice below the purchase price, he claimed.
Rice was found selling at Tk28 to Tk90 per kg depending on its varieties on Sunday. Coarse rice sold at Tk28, Paijam and BR-30 at Tk30, Miniket at Tk48, Nazirshail at Tk55 and Katarivog at Tk90.
The price was between Tk30 to Tk92 per kg in last week, Tk38-95 a month ago and Tk42-100 a year ago, said the traders, adding that coarse rice earlier sold at Tk40.
Md Lokman believes that extra stock of rice is the main reason behind the price fall and says the stock has been rising since 2010, when the government started rice import and allowed traders to import the staple by lowering the import duties.
Besides, the last couple of harvesting seasons witnessed substantial growth in yields, which was another reason, he added.
Now, Boro rice has started coming to the market despite the huge stock and further pushing down the prices.
The huge stock of rice forced farmers to lower prices to the point that they could not even realize their production costs.
They had to sell paddy at Tk450 to Tk500 for every maund (40kg) in the last few days, which was the half the production cost.
The growers said the cost of harvesting each maund of paddy was between Tk1,000 to Tk1,500. As a result farmers across the country launched protests over the issue.
Meanwhile, the government doubled import duties to 55% from 28% in a bid to discourage imports. 
But it was yet to create an impact on the markets, said Lokman.
Agreeing with Lokman, Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD) Research Director Khondaker Golam Moazzem said the decision to control rice imports should have been made long ago.
“The government has acted too late,” he said, adding that the late decision caused suffering to farmers as rice prices fell due to the supply of imported rice.
He believes that increasing the duty will have no immediate effect but it will have some effect in the long run.
Lokman expects that the price would go up after Eid, when the Boro harvesting season will end.

Nagpur Foodgrain Prices – APMC/Open Market-May 31, 2018 Nagpur, May 31 (Reuters) – Gram and tuar prices declined in Nagpur Agriculture Produce and Marketing Committee (APMC) on lack of demand from local millers. Fresh fall on NCDEX in gram, weak trend in Madhya Pradesh pulses and high moisture content arrival also pushed down prices in thin trading activity. About 900 bags of gram and 400 bags of tuar reported for auction, according to sources.

traders.

TUAR
* Tuar gavarani showed weak tendency in open market here on poor demand from local

traders.
