Pilibhit farmers
demand groundwater survey, write to CM; DM assures help
Keshav Agrawal| TNN | Apr 11, 2018, 23:34 IST
Pilibhit: Farmers in Pilibhit district have
complained of depleting groundwater level fearing it will hit the cultivation
of summer paddy crop. According to them, the groundwater has depleted 3-4 feet
in the past three years; however, the district still does not have any baseline
survey of the groundwater level in different tehsils.
Chief development officer Dinesh Kumar Singh said groundwater survey was never conducted in Pilibhit for reasons unknown to him.
Expressing concern over rapidly depleting groundwater, Bhartiya Kisan Union (BKU) district president Satvinder Singh Kahlon has written a letter to chief minister Yogi Adityanath, demanding a baseline survey for groundwater in the district. “The groundwater depletion by 3-4 feet in the same number of years is a serious matter for a district which is fed by 10 rivers,” Kahlon told TOI.
Jal Nigam executive engineer Girish Chandra said, “The department will soon conduct a survey to ascertain the groundwater level the district.”
According to scientists of plant physiology, 1.6 kilogram of summer paddy needs at least 2000 litres of groundwater to grow, while Pilibhit has an estimated 25,000 hectares under summer paddy cultivation.
Shailendra Singh Dhaka, plant physiologist at Krashi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), Pilibhit, said “The summer paddy crop is sown in March and takes 90 days to ripe. Since this period normally does not have the required amount of rainwater for irrigation, the crop needs groundwater irrigation after every three days for survival.”
“Since 1.6 kilogram of paddy needs around 2000 litres of groundwater, with the reported production of 80-85 quintals of paddy per hectare in the district, the total area under cultivation, 25,000 hectares, needs 266 crore litres of groundwater,” Dhaka said.
Ravindra Kumar, a former plant physiology scientist at International Rice Research Institute, the Philippines, who is a professor at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology in Meerut, told TOI, “Around 40-45% of the total groundwater used for summer paddy irrigating evaporates, 35% transpires (released by plants in the environment due to heating), 5-7% is lost in runoff and only 13-20% of water that percolates down through the soil recharges it.”

With this period also being the harvesting season for wheat crop, canal water is also not available for the irrigation of summer paddy and most of the canals run dry.
Dalip Kumar, executive engineer, canal department, said, “Pilibhit has a network of 90 canals, of which 87 irrigate fields while the remaining three are feeder canals, which supply water to minor canals. We keep most of these canals dry during this period to save wheat crop from accidental waterlogging. Besides, farmers, too, don’t need water during the harvesting of rabi crops.”
It is noticeable that many states, including neighbouring Uttarakhand, have already enacted laws banning summer paddy cultivation to check excessive discharge of the groundwater. Punjab was the first state to issue ordinance in April, 2008, prohibiting transplanting of paddy saplings before June10, during pre-monsoon season.
Mohan Singh of Khandepur village under Puranpur block and Sukhveer Singh of Amaria tehsil, who are cultivating summer paddy, told TOI, “About three years ago, the groundwater was available at a depth of 18-20 feet, which has now fallen to 21-25 feet. This is evident from bore-wells dug by farmers at different period.”
Acknowledging the importance of groundwater survey, district magistrate Akhilesh Kumar Mishra said, “I will soon invite a team of state hydrology department to Pilibhit to conduc https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bareilly/pilibhit-farmers-demand-groundwater-survey-write-to-cm-dm-assures-help/articleshow/63720320.cmst a survey of groundwater, which is very important.
Bangladesh's rice
imports set to skid as domestic output rebounds

DHAKA/MUMBAI - Bangladesh's rice imports are
likely to plunge 66 percent from a year ago to 1.2 million tonnes in 2018/19 as
the south Asian country is likely to harvest a bigger crop after prices jumped
in the domestic market, industry officials told Reuters.
Lower imports by Bangladesh could
reduce rice exports by India, the biggest supplier to the
neighbouring country.
"Bangladesh is unlikely to buy actively in the market next
fiscal year like this year. It's importswould be around 1.2 million
tonnes," Nitin Gupta, vice president, rice business at Olam
India, told Reuters.
Bangladesh has imported 3.5 million tonnes of rice so
far in the current fiscal year ending in June, massively up from 133,000 tonnes
in the previous year as floods ravaged its domestic crop.
"There won't be panic buying from the government next year.
Stock level has improved significantly," said a Mumbai-based dealer with a
global trading firm. He declined to be identified citing company policy.
As well as higher supplies, a bigger inventory will cut the
country's imports in coming months, said Badrul Hasan, head
of Bangladesh's state grain buyer.
Rice stocks have risen to 1 million tonnes after falling to
245,000 tonnes in May 2017, the lowest in 10 years, food ministry data showed.
In 2017, rice prices in Bangladesh jumped due to
depleting inventory and forced the government to seek supplies from Asian
countries like India, Thailand and Vietnam.
The price rise prompted farmers to expand areas under the
summer-sown crop, also known as 'Boro', to more than 4.9 million hectares,
exceeding the target of 4.7 million hectares, said Mohammad Mohsin, director
general of Department of Agriculture Extension.
The country's rice output from the summer crop
could rise nearly 6 percent to 19 million tonnes, he said. Boro crop usually
contributes more than half of Bangladesh's typical rice production
of around 35 million tonnes.
The harvesting of Boro crop has started and likely to be
completed by first week of July.
Bangladesh's rice production in 2018/19 is expected to
recover to 34.7 million tonnes, up 6.3 percent from a year ago, estimates the
U.S. Department of Agriculture attache in Bangladesh.
Meanwhile lower imports by Bangladesh will dent
India's exports, which surged to a record in 2017.
India, the world's biggest rice exporter, managed to
ship more than usual in 2017 due to good demand from Bangladesh and Sri Lanka,
but this year exports could be 1 million tonnes lower than last year's 12.5
million tonnes, said Olam's Gupta.

FOU Customs vows to enforce FG’s ban on importation of foreign rice
| April 11, 2018 4:27 pm
The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Federal Operations Unit (FOU)
Zone ‘A’ has vowed to continue to enforce the Federal Government’s rice policy,
which prohibits the importation of foreign parboiled rice into the country.
The policy, which was put in place to encourage local rice
production, was aimed at making Nigeria self sufficient in rice production and
creating more employment opportunities for the youths. Aside from ban on
importation of rice from the land border, the Federal Government has
technically ban import of rice from seaports as Customs vowed not to issue any
Form ‘M’ to importers of rice.
Also, the unit reported the interception of several contraband
goods with duty paid value (DPV) of over N1.5 billion including an additional
N166.2 billion generated from duty payment and demand notices on general goods
from seaports, airports and land borders, which had wrong classification,
transfer of value and underpayment of duty.
The seized items include Indian hemp, 64 exotic vehicles; 6,003
bags of foreign parboiled rice equivalent to 10 trailers; 963 cartons of frozen
poultry products; 431 jerrycans of vegetable oil; 163 bales of used clothing;
569 pieces of used tyres; 69 bags of sugar and four containers of general
goods.
Speaking in Lagos on Wednesday, Mohammed Uba, area controller of
the command, told newsmen that among the seizures was the interception of 570
parcels and 98 sacks of Indian hemp weighing 1,550kg along Olorunda axis of
Ogun State. The seizure, which Uba rated as the highest seizure of hard drug in
the history of the command, was facilitated by intelligence gathering.
Uba disclosed that the command together with the help of Lagos
Roving Team, also evacuated 2,672 bags of rice from a storage house in Ilogbo,
Abeokuta.
On the 64 impounded vehicles, Uba said that 13 of the exotic
vehicles including 2018 model of one Toyota Land Cruiser; one Escalades
Cardilac; one Range Rover; three Toyota Camry; one Toyota Rav4; one Toyota
Highlander; one Honda CRV; one Honda Accord; one BMW Salon; one Toyota Sienna
and one Hyundai, were also intercepted while on patrol at various locations.
He however disclosed that the vehicles are still under detention
pending the grace period given to the importers to bring the relevant Customs
document. “Additionally, four containers including three by 40 foot containers
and one by 20 foot container were also seized for breaches of Customs import
processes.
Uba, who said that some culprits have been arrested in
connection with the seizures, warned smugglers to desist from trade
malpractices and invest their money in legitimate business as the command has
devised other operational modalities to not only give them a run for their
money but also make them to count their losses.
Land borders: Importers defy FG as smuggling
gains steam
April 12, 2018
By
Vehicles worth
N3.51bn seized in 4 months
Efforts by the Federal Government
to boost trade facilitation at the local ports have suffered major setback,
especially in the last four months. Some dubious importers have smuggled more
luxury vehicles into the country as against the same period of last year.
According to investigations carried
out by New Telegraph, between the months of January and April last year, only
one unit of Range Rover Sports, worth N298 million, was seized by men of the
Nigeria Customs Service as against 126 varieties of that, that have been
confiscated within the same period this year.
The rise in the illegal trade, our
correspondent gathered, might not be un connected with the smugglers’
ability to re-oil their network with the security officials, especially some
dubious customs officers, who are normally bribed for easy access through the
forests.
The Federal Government had, two years ago, placed a ban on the importation of vehicles into Nigeria through the land borders.
The Federal Government had, two years ago, placed a ban on the importation of vehicles into Nigeria through the land borders.
According to the service, “the
prohibition order covers all new and used vehicles and sequel to a presidential
directive restricting all vehicle imports to Nigeria sea ports only.”
The order took effect from January
1, 2017. The restriction followed that of rice, whose imports through the land
borders had been banned since April 2016.
At the early stage of the
directive, stakeholders called for close and strict monitoring of the
activities of officials of the NCS and other uniformed men involved in
smuggling across the Nigerian borders, which they said constituted about 40 per
cent revenue loss to the country.
According to reports from the
Federal Operations Unit, Zone A, Ikeja, in January alone, no fewer than 31
vehicles, valued at N1.6 billion, were illegally imported into the country
through the land borders.
The vehicles included four Rolls
Royce, one Porche Panamera, one Jaguar, one Bentley, two Lexus jeep, 2 G-Wagon,
one Toyota Land Cruiser, five Toyota Corolla, seven Mercedes Benz, mostly 2017
models.
Others are two Lexus jeep (RS350,
2016 and 2017 models), one Rolls Royce, one Lincoln Limousine (2014), three
Toyota Camry, one Toyota Rav 4 and one Toyota Avalon, 2016 models.
Also in February, 18 exotic vehicles, valued at N303.4 million, were illegally imported into the country.
Also in February, 18 exotic vehicles, valued at N303.4 million, were illegally imported into the country.
With the latest seizures, the
service has seized 126 vehicles, valued at N3.51 billion, between January and
April 2018.
The latest seizures, valued at
N1.17 billion, include one Toyota Land Cruiser (2018 model), one customised
Escalade Cardilac (2017 model), one Range Rover 2014 model, three Toyota Camry
(2009, 2010 and 2017 models), one Toyota RAV 4, one Toyota Highlander (2014),
one Honda CRV, one Honda Accord, one BMW Saloon, one Toyota Sienna, one
Hyundai, among others.
While speaking on the current
seizure yesterday in Lagos, FOU unit Controller, Comptroller Mohammed Uba, said
other seizures included 77 exotic vehicles valued at N1.17 billion.
He noted that 13 of the vehicles,
valued at N258.1 million, had been detained, while 64 vehicles, valued at
N918.67 million, had been converted to seizure after all necessary legal
procedures were followed.
Uba said that the vehicles were smuggled into the country without customs papers.Apart from vehicles, Uba also disclosed that a 20 feet container, marked 80992/0, with 2,660 cartons of Gonca Spagetti and 530 packages of Riffle Energy drinks, were falsely declared as baking powder.

He explained that the unit
recovered N166.2 million from duty payment and demand notices on general goods
from seaports, airports and border stations through wrong classifications,
transfer of value and short change in duty payment meant for the Federal
Government.
“Indian hemp, weighing 1,550
kilogrammes, was intercepted along Olorunda axis of Ogun State based on
intelligence, making it the highest seizure in the history of FOUA. You all
know what would have happened if it got to the wrong hands undetected.
“Also worthy of note is the
evacuation of 2,671 bags of 50 kilogrammes of rice using nine hired trucks from
makeshift storage houses in Ilogbo, Abeokuta, based on credible intelligence
despite resistance led by the Lagos Roving Team complemented by other
team.”
Uba added that there were mob
attacks against the FOU operatives while performing their statutory
responsibilities.
Other seizures include 6,003 bags
of rice, 69 bags of sugar, 163 bales of second hand clothing, 963 frozen
poultry products, 515 (5 litres) of vegetable oil, 569 used tyres, 40 feet
container marked TCNU 526853/7 laden with 11 pallets and 83 cartons of
toiletries and HTC fittings, 40 feet container with number PCIU 865957/9
containing 420 cartons, 26 sacks and 2, 790 cartons of different goods falsely
declared as keyboards and mouse.
Others are 20 feet container with
CSNU106087/4, laden with 385 cartons of tiffany cream biscuits and 2,300
cartons of tiffany chocolate cream sweet falsely declared as tapet for fuel
pump complete .
Rice traders off to Iran
LAHORE: A 16-member delegation of the Rice Exporters Association
of Pakistan (REAP) leaves for Iran to explore trade potential, a statement said
on Monday. The delegation, which includes top exporters of basmati and long
grain rice, will meet with the officials of the Ministry of Commerce of Iran,
for selling Pakistani rice through government tenders and Iranian Ministry of
Health regarding GMP issues. The delegation will also participate in lunch
arranged by Iranian Rice Importers Association, it added.
Rice exporters pin high hopes on Iran visit
Salman Abduhu
The delegation, led by REAP chairman
Ch Samee Ullah Naeem, will visit Tehran as well as the city of Mashhad where it
will have meetings with representatives of Tehran Chamber of Commerce,
Industries and Mines and Mashhad Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
Delegation will conclude meetings
with Ministry of Health regarding GMP issues, Ministry of Commerce, GTC for
buying Pakistani rice through government tenders. The delegation will be also
participating in lunch arranged by Irani Rice Importers Association.
The deliberations are aimed at
increasing bilateral trade and investment between the two friendly countries.
The chairman said the REAP would
discuss the issues related to the resumption of rice exports, which nosedived
after sanctions, from Pakistan, implementation of currency swap agreement and
the condition of good manufacturing practices (GMP) certification with Iranian
authorities. He said that Iran used to be 800,000 tons basmati rice market
until sanctions were imposed in 2010 and exports have drastically reduced to
barely 60,000 tons only. REAP considers unavailability of banking channel the
only barrier for drop in trade, he added.
These dialogues between the
leading businessmen and industrialists are meant to inspire the Iranian
importers as well as investors to explore the healthy business opportunities in
Pakistan, and foster new profitable ventures. The REAP members will invite the
Iranians to visit Pakistan, where Association could arrange fruitful B2B
meetings with progressive business groups, to seek fresh collaborative ventures.
The Pakistan exporters’ team will also hold meetings with Government Trading
Corporation (GTC) of Iran, besides meeting with Health Ministry to raise the
issue of GMP certification for Pakistani rice exporters, which presently has
become a major hurdle in the way of rice export to Iran. The Iranian health
ministry has set health standards for the rice import and only those who are
registered under its GMP certification programme can export rice to the
country.
REAP chairman, talking to The
Nation, said that Pakistan team will also convince the GTC to announce tenders
for super basmati and long grain 386 rice so that REAP members could avail the
facility to book export orders for Iran.
With a view to enhance liaison
between the businessmen of two countries, the REAP members’ group will hold B2B
meetings with Rice Importers Association of Iran. The REAP chairman will also
call on the Pakistan commercial counsel in Mashhad. REAP chairman hoped that
visit of the delegation will not only bring Pakistani and Iranian businessmen
closer but would also open doors for boosting the rice export to Iran which is
going to be a great market for Pakistan.
“I hope that the country would
regain its share in the Iranian market, which can become the good destination
for their basmati exports,” he said. “Iran is one of the largest rice importers
and purchases rice worth $2 billion every year. However, Pakistan’s rice
accounts for nearly an eight percent of Iran’s market,” he said

Madhya Pradesh’s Basmati claim
The Narendra
Modi government may find itself in a tricky situation over the issue of
extending geographical indication (GI) certification for basmati paddy grown in
Madhya Pradesh (MP).

75,000 hectares in 13 districts. (Express Photo)
The Narendra Modi government may find itself in a
tricky situation over the issue of extending geographical indication (GI)
certification for basmati paddy grown in Madhya Pradesh (MP).
The Agricultural & Processed Food Products Export
Development Authority (APEDA) and the Indian Council of Agricultural Research
(ICAR) are both vociferously opposed to MP’s inclusion as a basmati-growing
state.
The APEDA, which had originally filed the application to
register “basmati” as a GI, has included only 77 districts in the Indo-Gangetic
Plain along the foothills of the Himalayas — covering the states of Punjab,
Haryana, Uttarakhand, Delhi, West Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh and Jammu
& Kashmir — where this premium rice can be legally cultivation.
MP, which is scheduled to go to the polls later this year, has
opposed APEDA’s application, while demanding that 13 of its districts — Morena,
Bhind, Sheopur, Gwalior, Datia, Shivpuri, Guna, Vidisha, Raisen, Sehore,
Hoshangabad, Narsinghpur and Jabalpur — also be given the GI tag. That would
allow farmers there to continue cultivating this paddy and selling it as
basmati.
Currently, there are around 80,000 farmers growing basmati on
nearly 75,000 hectares in these 13 districts. MP’s estimated annual milled
basmati rice production is about 3 lakh tonnes (lt), of which roughly 70% is
exported and the balance sold within the country.
The above numbers are a fraction of the all-India basmati area
of over 16 lakh hectares (lh): 7 lh in Haryana, six lh in Punjab, 2.6 lh in UP,
0.6 lh in J&K, 0.15 lh in Uttaranchal and 0.07 lh in HP.
India’s total basmati rice output is roughly 60 lt, 40 lt of which is exported
and valued at Rs 25,000 crore. The rest 20 lt is sold domestically and worth
another Rs 10,000 crore. Half of this 20 lt comprises branded basmati rice and
the remaining sold in loose form. The top brands include India Gate, Daawat,
Fortune, Kohinoor, Patanjali and Lal Qilla.
“Politically speaking, it is difficult to ignore MP’s claim,
more so with Assembly elections likely in November. Also, while 80,000 farmers
may not be large compared to the two million growers in the main basmati
states, they aren’t small either,” an industry source pointed out.
Besides, there is the commercial side. Many exporters — such as
LT Foods, SSA International and Narmada Cereal Pvt. Ltd. — have established
modern rice mills near Bhopal, sourcing the raw material at a relatively cheaper
rate.
“In the 2017-18 season, Pusa Basmati-1 paddy prices in Punjab
and Haryana mandis started at Rs 3,000 per quintal in late-October and rose to
Rs 3,350 towards January. The average cost was roughly Rs 3,100. But in MP,
prices ranged from Rs 2,600 to Rs 3,000, while averaging Rs 2,800 per quintal.
The Rs 300/quintal difference translates into a cost advantage of Rs 4.5-5 per
kg of rice (milled rice accounts for 64-65% of paddy grains),” noted a leading
Delhi-based exporter.
Scientists at the ICAR’s Indian Agricultural Research Institute
(IARI) are clear that the grain quality of basmati grown in MP — including the
improved high-yielding and less photoperiod-sensitive “Pusa” varieties — cannot
match that of the crop farmed in the Indo-Gangetic plains. Basmati rice’s most
distinctive trait is its aroma, which derives from a compound called
2-Acetyl-1-Pyrroline. The accumulation of this highly volatile compound in the
grain is largely a function of environmental conditions.
“The aroma retention is best when the plant’s flowering and
grain-filling stages coincide with a cool climate, with temperatures below 30
degree Celsius during daytime and just over 20 degrees at night. You get these
conditions from end-September through October only in the traditional basmati
belt,” explained an IARI scientist, involved in the breeding of the blockbuster
Pusa-1121 and Pusa-1509 basmati varieties.
Higher temperatures during the roughly one-month period from
flowering to maturity can, moreover, impact the grain’s texture and milling
quality. “When temperatures are high at the time of grain-filling, the packing
of the starch granules in the rice tends to be loose. You, then, get grains
with more chalkiness (opaque areas caused by incomplete filling) and leading to
higher percentage of broken rice during milling,” added the scientist.
Scientific opinion may not, of course, matter as much in a case
where politics and other interests also count. “This is a premium paddy that
last season fetched Rs 2,800 per quintal, when the minimum support price for
common non-basmati varieties was Rs 1,550. How can you deny farmers, especially
in a less agriculturally-prosperous state, the opportunity to grow basmati?,”
said the earlier-quoted industry source.
Therein lies the dilemma. The idea behind GI is to certify
premium character to a product attributable to its geographical origin. APEDA’s
GI application for basmati rested on its supposed uniqueness as a rice grown in
a specific region of the Indo-Gangetic plain, “situated below the foothills of
the Himalayas”. MP, according to it, did not fall within this specified
geography, being situated far away from the Himalayan foothills
The GI Registry under the Office of the Controller General of
Patents, Designs and Trade Marks, in an order dated March 15, rejected MP’s
claim for inclusion as a basmati-growing state. The Shivraj Singh Chouhan-led
BJP government in the state has filed a petition in the Madras High Court
challenging the order.
“Today, we have a Rs 35,000-crore industry built primarily on
the premium value of this rice. The danger is of it getting diluted, with more
and more states staking claim for the GI tag,” warned the source.
14 rice mills to attract N250bn
investment –FG
Okechukwu Nnodim, Abuja
The 14 new rice mills being expected in
Nigeria in few weeks’ time will attract N250bn worth of investments to the
sector, the Federal Government has said.On March 4 this year, The
PUNCH reported a statement by the Federal Government that
Thailand had commenced moves to establish rice mills in Nigeria following the
over 90 per cent reduction in the importation of rice from the country.
Although the government did not name those
who were to establish the 14 new rice mills, it told participants at the
AgroNigeria High-level Rice Conference in Abuja that the move would attract
hundreds of billions of naira to Nigeria’s rice value chain.
The Minister of Agriculture and Rural
Development, Chief Audu Ogbeh, said, “There are presently 21 large integrated
rice mills with a total processing capacity of 1.22 million metric tonnes
yearly and spreading across the country, from Kano, Enugu, Ebonyi, Kebbi,
Anambra, Edo, Nasarawa, Benue, Kwara, Jigawa, Niger and Kogi states. The
challenge associated with local rice, which has discouraged consumers,
especially when compared to imported rice, has been overcome.
“Today, several integrated local rice mills
have their milled rice in the Nigerian market and consumer demand and
preference for local rice has risen due to better quality and taste compared to
imported rice. Home-grown international grade rice can be found across Nigerian
markets and a total of 14 mills will soon come on board.”
Nigerian Govt. To Create
Additional 14 Rice Mills To Meet Local Demands
·
The Federal Government says it
will establish no fewer than 14 additional rice mills in the country to meet
increasing demand for local rice and achieve self sufficiency.Chief Audu Ogbeh,
the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, said this at the AgroNigeria
High Level Rice Conference in Abuja on Tuesday.
Ogbeh, who was represented by
Alhaji Muyiwa Azeez, the Director, Agribusiness and Marketing in the ministry,
said the mills would be sited in different states.
“ Different brands of home grown
international grade rice can now be found in the market. This has been a great
stride.
A total of 14 number mills will
soon come on board and expected to provide an additional investment of 250
billion in the rice processing sector.
“It will also attract a savings
of 300 million dollars in foreign exchange from import substitution through
local processing.
“Government policy under the
current administration of substituting import rice with intense local
production has boosted the morale of farmers and rice millers.
“That in the past three years,
paddy production has seen exponential growth, reaching 6.9 million metric
tonnes in 2016 that is 4.41 million tonnes of milled rice and 8.019 million
metric tonnes that is 4.81 million tonnes of milled rice in 2017.
“We are on track to self
sufficiency in rice production.’’
He said the growth recorded in
the rice value chain was due to improved access to finance and inputs from the
Anchor Borrowers Programme of the CBN.
The minister said the current
demand for paddy rice was about 9.5 million metric tonnes while the deficit
stood at about 1.99 million metric tonnes.
Gov. Atiku Bagudu of Kebbi State
on his part said the country should aim to be among global competitors in rice
production.
Bagudu who described imported
rice as `chaff and not fit for human consumption’, said that smugglers bring in
these rice for citizens to buy them at cheaper prices.
“The major misrepresentation in
the rice story is that there is rice out there in other countries that is
cheaper than the Nigerian rice
“I think if there is anything we
can do collectively as stakeholders, it is to appreciate the significance of
that, so that we can be better stakeholders.
“Because no matter the policy
platform that is provided, if we stakeholders do not serve as guards of our
interest, then it cannot be sustained.
“We are not dealing with a case
where somebody is bringing rice of equivalent quality and selling it cheaper.
“It is a situation where somebody
is bringing rice that is of poorer quality and because people do not
discriminate, they just want lower price and they don’t know any better so,
that rice is been sold lower.
Mr Aliyu Abdulhameed, the
Managing Director of the Nigeria Incentive Based Risk Sharing System for
Agricultural Lending (NIRSAL), said that the organisation has introduced some
financial models to inject fresh drive into agriculture. Abdulhameed listed the
models to include Agricultural Primary Production Aggregation Service System
(A-PASS), FAM-SMART (Farm Aggregation Model for Smallholder Farmer Agriculture
Based on Technology), among others.
He said that NIRSAL had assisted
27,000 smallholder farmers with loans of approximately N3.4billion largely in
Kebbi State through the Anchor Borrrowers Programme (ABP).
“This is a system developed to

Ha), and adopt single commodity of production.
“Input and mechanisation services

Kebbi State Governor, Alhaji Atiku Bagudu
Kebbi State Governor Atiku Bagudu says the price of local rice will soon drop to N 10,000 a bag. He stated this at the opening of the two-day AgroNigeria High-Level Rice Conference yesterday in Abuja.Bagudu noted that Nigeria had the capacity to tap into the 600-700 MT Global Rice Market as rice is grown in all the states of the federation and the FCT. He stated that stakeholders must cooperate to sustain the growth already recorded in the sector. The Chairman of the Presidential Committee on rice noted that Nigeria must emulate Japan, which imposes a 777 per cent tariff on imported rice as against the current 50 per cent tariff on imported rice in Nigeria.He added that smuggling must be tackled to grow the sector.
Delivering the first keynote address, Dr. Luzius Cavieziel,
Regional Director Africa, Syngenta, Switzerland stated that his organisation
Syngenta had been investing in different crops across the world. He added that
Syngenta was engaged in 26 Commercial Operations and 6 Research &
Development sites.
In his welcome remark, the Chief Host and Minister of Agriculture,
Chief Audu Ogbeh represented by Director Agribusiness in the ministry, Alhaji
Musibau Azeez, stated that the Agricultural Promotion Policy had helped to
improve the volume of production, capacity of farmers as well as improved the
quality and prevent Nigeria from being a dumping site for imported rice.
He expressed that there were 21 integrated rice mills in Nigeria
currently producing 1. 22 million metric tonnes yearly across rice-processing states
like Kano, Enugu, Kebbi, Nasarawa, Niger, Kogi amongst others. He added that
the federal government was prioritising the fight against the smuggling of
agricultural commodities including rice.
Delivering a second keynote address, the Managing Director of
NIRSAL, Mr Aliyu Abdulhameed commended AgroNigeria for expanding its scope of
coverage to the whole of Africa and for initiating the Rice Conference.
He stated that NIRSAL had developed production models to boost
productivity of farmers.He added that the agency had facilitated access to N3.
4billion by 57,000 farmers, 90 per cent of them from Kebbi.
On her part, Ogun State Commissioner for Agriculture, Mrs Adepeju
Adebajo noted that farmers could only be economically viable if they formed
clusters.
She stated that the state government was prioritising the adoption of agritech such as aquaponics to reduce the cultivation of large expanse of land.

Pakistani Rice Exporters Pin Hopes on Iran Visit
Wednesday, April 11, 2018
A16-member delegation of Rice Exporters Association of Pakistan
has left for Iran to explore trade and investment opportunities in general and
enhance rice export to the neighboring country in particular.
The delegation, led by REAP
Chairman Samee Ullah Naeem, will visit Tehran as well as the city of Mashhad
where it will have meetings with representatives of Tehran Chamber of Commerce,
Industries and Mines and Mashhad Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Pakistani
newspaper The Nation reported on Tuesday.
The delegation will have meetings
with the officials of Health Ministry regarding good manufacturing practices,
Industries Ministry and Government Trading Corporation of Iran for buying
Pakistani rice through government tenders. The delegation will be hosted by
Iranian Rice Importers Association.
GTC is an Iranian
government-owned company specializing in the purchase, import and distribution
of essential foodstuff. It is the lever for enforcing market controls. The
company is also in charge of maintaining a supply of wheat, rice, cooking oil
and meat, as the country’s strategic reserve of essential commodities.
The deliberations are aimed at
increasing bilateral trade and investment between the two friendly countries.
The REAP chairman said the
association would discuss issues related to the resumption of rice exports,
which nosedived after international nuclear sanctions against Iran, from
Pakistan, implementation of currency swap agreement and the condition of GMP
certification with Iranian authorities.
Naeem said Iran used to be a
800,000-ton basmati rice market until sanctions were imposed in 2010 and
exports have drastically reduced to barely 60,000 tons.
“REAP considers unavailability of
banking channel the only barrier for drop in trade,” he added.
Talks between the leading
businessmen and industrialists are meant to inspire Iranian importers as well
as investors to explore the business opportunities in Pakistan, and foster new
profitable ventures.
The REAP members will invite
Iranians to visit Pakistan where the association could arrange B2B meetings
with progressive business groups to seek fresh collaborative ventures.
The Pakistan exporters’ team will
also hold meetings with GTC to raise the issue of GMP certification for
Pakistani rice exporters, which presently has become a hurdle in the way of
rice export to Iran.
The Iranian Health Ministry has
set standards for the rice import and only those who are registered under its
GMP certification program can export rice to the country.
The REAP chairman said the
Pakistan team will also try to convince GTC to announce tenders for super
basmati and so-called long grain 386 rice so that REAP members could avail the
facility to book export orders for Iran.
With a view to enhance liaison
between the businessmen of two countries, the REAP members’ group will hold B2B
meetings with Rice Importers Association of Iran.
Naeem will also call on the
Pakistani commercial attache in Mashhad. He hoped the visit of the delegation
will not only bring Pakistani and Iranian businessmen closer but would also
open doors for boosting rice export to Iran, which is going to be a great
market for Pakistan.
“I hope that the country
(Pakistan) would regain its share in the Iranian market, which can become a
good destination for their basmati exports,” he said.
“Iran is one of the largest rice
importers and purchases rice worth $2 billion every year. However, Pakistan’s
rice accounts for nearly 8% of Iran’s market,” he said.
Nigeria’s rice sub-sector to attract N250bn investment
ON APRIL 11, 20187:04
from import substitution, local processing.
By Gabriel Ewepu ABUJA- FOLLOWING efforts to boost food security by
the Federal Government,
the nation’s rice sub-sector
will attract N250 billion investment based high paddy rice production and
increased milling capacity. rice farmers This was disclosed by the Minister of
Agriculture, Chief Audu Ogbeh, during a Rice Conference organised by
AgroNigeria, Wednesday, in Abuja. Ogbeh who was represented by the Director,
Agribusiness, Processing and Marketing, Muyiwa Azeez, also stated that
home-grown international grade rice can be found across Nigerian markets and a
total of 14 mills will soon come on board. According to him there are presently
21 large integrated rice mills with a total processing capacity of 1.22 million
metric tonnes annually, which spread across the country including Kano, Enugu,
Ebonyi, Kebbi, Anambra, Edo, Nasarawa, Benue, Kwara, Jigawa, Niger and Kogi
States, which the integrated rice mills have also employed about 2 million
unskilled workers. He said: “Today, several integrated local rice mills have
their milled rice in the Nigerian market and consumer demand and preference for
local rice has risen due to better quality and taste compared to imported rice.
Home-grown international grade rice can be found across Nigerian markets and a
total of 14 mills will soon come on board. “Members of Rice Producers
Association of Nigeria, RIFAN, currently have a direct workforce of 5,000 skilled
Nigerians including women as off-takers of rice paddy, and as created jobs for
over 5 million rice farmers out of the existing 11 million rice farmers in
Nigeria. “The integrated rice mills have also employed about two million
unskilled workers. Nigeria’s rice import bill has dropped appreciably by over
90 per cent. Presently we have 21 large-scale mills with a capacity with a
capacity of 1.2 million MT, while additional mills are springing up.” In his
assertion, he said in the past three years, paddy production had experienced
exponential growth, recording 6.9 million metric tonnes in 2016, which
represented 4.14 million metric tonnes of milled rice, while 8.019 million
metric tonnes, representing 4.81 million metric tonnes of milled rice in 2017.
“Estimated crop area of rice in 2017 was 3.9 million hectares, which represent
an increase of about 6.9 per cent over the 3.17 million hectares cultivated in
2016. All the states of the federation recorded an increase in rice production,
with Kebbi and Lagos having the highest increase. Over the last three years, we
have recorded increase in production from an average of 2.5 tonnes to five
tonnes per hectare”, he said. According to the Minister on per capita
consumption, Nigeria’s demand for rice stands at 9.5 million million tonnes of
rice paddy, representing 6.8 million metric tonnes of milled rice, which the
deficit which used to stand at between three to four million metric tonnes had
been reduced to 1.99 million metric tonnes He said to sustain the tempo of the
current growth in the subsector government would continue to ensure that
investors were given the enabling environment to operate. “Government would
continue to provide conducive environment to rice farmers and millers in the
area of ensuring adequate agro-chemicals, fertilisers, land development and
irrigation facilities, mechanisation, modern extension services, power supply,
access to good roads, farmlands and favourable pricing. Essentially,
forestalling the illegal activities of smugglers across Nigeria’s borders
remain a priority”, he stated. In his earlier remarks, the Governor of Kebbi
State, who also doubles as Chairman, Presidential Initiative on Rice, Abubakar
Bagudu, said operators in the rice value chain cost of rice production in
countries Nigeria competes with remains cheaper. “Operators in the rice value
chain must appreciate the fact that the cost of production in countries we are
competing with is cheaper than the production cost for the same commodity in
Nigeria. This needs to be addressed in order to ensure sustainability”, Bagudu
said.

Vigilance sleuths start
probe into paddy embezzlement
Tribune
News Service
Amritsar,
April 11
The
Vigilance Bureau has started a probe into the siphoning of government paddy
from the godown of Veerumal Mulkhraj Jain Rice Mill at Jandiala Guru. Questions
are being raised over the functioning of a bank which issued huge cash credit
limit worth crores of rupees to rice millers and private firms, thereby losing
a big amount of public money to fraudsters.
Officials
of the Department of Food Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs, who had examined
the stock at the aforementioned mill, were surprised to find that the bank had
given huge loans to the rice mill without even checking the stock properly.
The
authorities of Punjab National Bank, who had reportedly given a huge credit
limit to Gulshan Jain and his family, had put forth their claim on the paddy
found in the mill. Officials of the department had also maintained their claim
on paddy.
Amarjit
Singh, Deputy Director, Department of Food Civil Supplies and Consumer Affairs,
pointed out that the department would issue notices to the bank for submitting
their documents on the basis of which they had issued cash credit limit to the
tune of Rs 200 crore. If they can’t produce the same, they can’t claim the
paddy.
Highly
placed sources in the department also added that Gulshan Jain, now absconding,
owed hundreds of crores of rupees to people, including commission agents and
exporters.
Similarly,
the department had carried out inspection at a rice sheller located on the
Amritsar-Tarn Taran road following a complaint submitted by Gurmeet Bablu,
president, Shaheed Bhagat Singh Youth Front.
However,
Anindita Mitra, Director, Department of Food Civil Supplies and Consumer
Affairs, said no bungling of paddy was found at the mill on the Tarn Taran
road. She said officials from Pungrain and Punsup were taken along to carry out
the inspection.
Meanwhile,
SSP (Vigilance) RK Bakshi said investigation into the Jandiala Guru rice mill
bungling case had begun. He said vigilance had sought record from the
department and it would take a couple of days to examine the record and
ascertaining anything.
Impacts
No water for
Kashmir’s rice farmers
, 11.04.18
Almost no snow and rain in recent
months has pushed Kashmir to an unprecedented drought, with authorities
advising farmers not to cultivate water-intensive rice

Kashmir (Photo by Athar Parvaiz)
In the villages of Kashmir,
farmers are worried about the creeping dryness in the Himalayan region. While
they are acutely aware how it can affect their crops in summer, a recent
government advisory that asks farmers in several districts not to cultivate
rice this year has only heightened their anxieties.
“All farmers are hereby requested
that they do not go for paddy cultivation this year as, due to lack of snowfall
and rainfall, there is hardly any water in the Jhelum River and the streams,”
reads a notice in Urdu issued by the Baramulla district wing of Kashmir’s
Irrigation Department. “So, please don’t go for paddy cultivation this year,
considering the fact that we won’t be able to supply any water for irrigation.”
Similar notices have been issued in other districts such as Kupwara, Bandipora
and Ganderbal.
The rainfall and snowfall numbers
collected at the regional directorate of the meteorological department
corroborates the helplessness shown by the irrigation department. Rainfall in
the first three months of 2018 has been the lowest in 30 years, according to
Mukhtar Ahmad, deputy director at Jammu and Kashmir Meteorological Department.
Gulmarg, for instance, recorded a
mere 172 mm precipitation (snowfall and rainfall) in the three months to March,
compared with an average of 602 mm in the past 30 years for the three-month
period, Ahmad said. Similarly, Kupwara received only 198 mm compared with the
30-year average of 424 mm, whereas in Srinagar it was 82 mm against an average
of 255 mm.
Scientists say more uncertain
rainfall and snowfall is one of the major impacts of climate change.
Worried farmers
Mohammad Amin Lone, a farmer in
Nutnoosa-Kupwara, despairs at the low level of water in Lal Kul, a stream that
feeds a huge agricultural area in Kupwara. “It used to be full of water at this
time of the year when rains and snowmelt fill the rivers and streams,” he
told indiaclimatedialogue.net.
“Though we got a sense in winter that the coming months are going to be hard in
terms of availability of water, as there was no snowfall, I had no idea that
the streams could be devoid of water to such an extent.”
The drying up of Lal Kul could
lead to a change in cropping pattern. “We are thinking hard what to do, but I
think we will sow other crops like maize,” Lone said.
The state’s agriculture
department has not yet advised farmers on what to do in the backdrop of the
irrigation advisory, said Altaf Andrabi, director of the department, adding
that within two weeks, farmers of different regions would be given suggestions
by his directorate on which crops to plant.
“The situation is quite grim. But
I think at some places farmers would be in a position to grow rice,” Andrabi
told indiaclimatedialogue.net.
“Considering the importance of rice cultivation in the valley because it is a
staple food here, farmers in most places would insist on growing rice.” Farmers
could afford to wait for another two-three weeks in expectation of rainfall, as
the paddy season begins from May 15, he said.
There’s still a ray of hope for
farmers like Abdul Ahad of Zangam in north Kashmir’s Baramulla district. “Our
land still has water in it and we also have a nearby stream, which feeds our
rice fields. We just hope that this stream doesn’t dry up. It is all up to
God,” Ahad said.
Altaf Hussain Darvish of Vadora
near the apple town of Sopore in north Kashmir said his rice harvest was
excellent last year due to plentiful water. “This year, getting our farms
irrigated is going to be quite tough,” Darvish told indiaclimatedialogue.net.
“Khoyem Kul, which feeds our farms, holds just a trickle of water.”
Inadequate infrastructure
The lack of irrigation
infrastructure has compounded the farmers’ woes. Only 41% of Kashmir’s
agricultural land has irrigation facilities, according to a recent economic survey. If the government is able to
create water harvesting infrastructure across the state, Jammu and Kashmir
would be in a better position to deal with phases when there is no or little
rainfall, says Shakil Romshoo, who heads the earth sciences department at
Kashmir University. “If the government properly manages the rainfall we get and
the water which comes from more than 8,000 glaciers that we have, the region
can never face severe water shortages,” Romshoo told indiaclimatedialogue.net.

Kashmir, is worried that the Lal Kul stream holds just a trickle, which would
be insufficient to irrigate rice fields (Photo by Athar Parvaiz)
“The government has constructed
some water harvesting ponds in some parts of north Kashmir for water
harvesting, but they need to be created in all the areas,” said Jabbar Naikoo,
a farmer in Bedibera-Kupwara. “Anyone can see that the droughts have become
frequent and rainfall scarcer and more erratic.”
Lack of irrigation facilities is
one of the reasons why some farmers are selling land to property developers.
According to an official document outlining a new policy for land use in Jammu
and Kashmir, unplanned construction like developing residential colonies,
factories, brick kilns, shopping complexes and other commercial infrastructure
has eaten deeply into the valley’s agricultural land resources.
In a letter to the government in
March 2016, the director for agriculture in Kashmir had reported that “due to
the haphazard land conversion, agricultural land has shrunk considerably, as
per door to door surveys conducted by the field workers of this (agriculture)
Department.”
Declining farmland
The department’s statistics about
the past two decades paint a grim picture. Agricultural land has seen a
reduction of 22,000 hectares from 163,000 hectares in 1996 to 141,000 hectares
in 2012. “Going by this data,” says an official at the agricultural department,
“Kashmir loses an average of 1,375 hectares of agricultural land every year.”
To some farmers, converting rice
farms into orchards, which need virtually no irrigation, makes sense. Many
farmers are doing it in Kashmir, as is evident in the findings of a paper published
by Shakil Romshoo and Irfan Rashid. The authors said that farmland is getting
converted into orchards mainly because less water is required to grow fruit
trees.
According to a policy document of
the Jammu and Kashmir government, the region has witnessed a huge shift from
rice cultivation to horticulture in recent decades. In 1953-54, the area under
fruit cultivation was just 12,400 hectares, which has now expanded to 325,000
hectares.
Alternate crops
Tej Pratap, former Vice
Chancellor of Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology
(SKUAST),
said earning of farmers will not be hit if they shift to maize and pulses in
the face of decreasing water availability. “India faces a shortfall of pulses,
which means there would be no price problem for the produce from Kashmir,”
Pratap told indiaclimatedialogue.net.
“Rice can be easily procured from the rest of India, where it is grown in
plenty.”
Rice is a staple in Kashmir. It
is grown over 141,000 hectares, with an average production of close to one
million tonnes a year, which is consumed locally, official data show. The state
also imports rice from other provinces, which is distributed through the Public
Distribution System. These imports are continuously increasing with growing
population. For example, in 2001-02, the state had imported 79,000 tonnes
whereas it was half a million tonnes in 2015-16.
There would be a water crisis
this summer because there was almost no snowfall this winter in an area where
rivers are fed by snowmelt, Pratap said. Kashmir has to find ways to make maize
a cash crop, considering the fact that a lot of agricultural land in Kashmir is
rain-fed. “Vegetable cultivation is another option that farmers can
successfully practise in various parts of Kashmir,” Pratap said.

The shoe's on the other foot
Brazil Reactivates Domestic Support Programs as Exports to the U.S.
Rise
By Sarah Moran
BRASÍLIA, BRAZIL -- Exports of Brazilian rice to the United States
have jumped nearly 60 percent in the first two months of 2018 over the same
time period last year. On the heels of
that news, Brazil has rebooted two dormant rice support policies that USA Rice
says appear to be being used to push their export prices below production costs
in direct violation of World Trade Organization (WTO) obligations.
Over the years, Brazil has used various domestic support programs
when corn, wheat, and rice commodity prices are low, and for the first time
since 2011, they have authorized the use of two programs for rice: Premium for Product Outflow (PEP) and
Equalization Premium Paid to the Producer (PEPRO). The purpose of these programs is to move
commodities from high producing areas to any of the ten grain-deficient states
in the north of Brazil. The program is
not prohibited from fueling exports, however when used this way, it is a WTO
violation and Brazilian rice enjoys a clear and unfair advantage.
The programs are similar in nature in that the Brazilian government
guarantees a minimum price to producers by paying the difference between the
prevailing market price and the government-established minimum guaranteed
price, either to the commercial buyer (PEP) or directly to the producer
(PEPRO).
Brazil is the tenth largest rice exporter in the world and supplies
rice to many nearby U.S. export markets, such as Venezuela, Nicaragua, Costa
Rica, and Peru.
The Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture has held several rounds of
auctions under these programs in the first four months of this year, purchasing
more than 300,000 MT of rice. (The
country typically produces 11-13 million MT of rice and exports between 0.5-1
million MT.) Brazil's rice exports have
increased 240 percent in the first three months of 2018 over the same time
period in 2017. This is primarily due to
more than 160,000 MT of rice shipments to Venezuela in addition to the
increased shipments to the United States.
"Although the programs are intended to facilitate the movement
of commodities within Brazil, nothing bars them from exporting the rice,"
says Bobby Hanks, chairman of the USA Rice International Trade Policy
Committee. "If rice is indeed being
exported under these programs, then this is a WTO violation, of great concern
to us, and exactly the sort of unfair trade practices that hurt U.S. farmers
and that the Trump Administration is cracking down on."
Hanks said USA Rice will raise the issue later this week in
previously scheduled meetings with senior Administration trade officials and in
Congress with committees that have jurisdiction over the issue.
USA RICE DAILY
USA Rice Briefs House Ag on Rice in Food Aid Programs
U.S. rice plays a vital role
WASHINGTON, DC -- Yesterday, USA Rice joined a
select panel of commodity organizations to brief House Agriculture Committee
Members' staff on U.S. food aid programs and the central role the U.S.
agriculture industry plays in supporting those programs. Specifically,
the groups warned that any attempts to reduce program funding, or shift funding
away from the procurement of U.S. commodities and products would diminish
Congressional support of the programs by farm state lawmakers and would be
strongly opposed.
USA Rice staff reminded the congressional aides that rice is the most consumed commodity in the world, making it the perfect vehicle to deliver critical micronutrients needed in countries receiving food aid assistance.
"The briefing was a great opportunity to provide staff with food aid program success stories that are humanitarian, diplomatic, and strategic," said Frank Leach, USA Rice manager of government affairs, who presented at the briefing. "The group was particularly interested in fortified rice that is a powerful tool to fight malnutrition and other diseases and is just beginning to become a standard part of global feeding programs."
USA Rice's Leach along with the other food aid coalition members will be making their case in the Senate tomorrow at a similar briefing that is open to staff from all Senate offices.
Leach said, "With action on the next Farm Bill heating up in the House this week, along with increased efforts in the Senate to remove U.S. farmers from the equation, the briefings couldn't be more timely and worthwhile."

Pilibhit farmers demand groundwater survey,
write to CM; DM assures help
Keshav Agrawal| TNN | Apr 11, 2018, 23:34 IST
Pilibhit: Farmers in Pilibhit district have
complained of depleting groundwater level fearing it will hit the cultivation
of summer paddy crop. According to them, the groundwater has depleted 3-4 feet
in the past three years; however, the district still does not have any baseline
survey of the groundwater level in different tehsils.
Chief development officer Dinesh Kumar Singh said groundwater survey was never conducted in Pilibhit for reasons unknown to him.
Expressing concern over rapidly depleting groundwater, Bhartiya Kisan Union (BKU) district president Satvinder Singh Kahlon has written a letter to chief minister Yogi Adityanath, demanding a baseline survey for groundwater in the district. “The groundwater depletion by 3-4 feet in the same number of years is a serious matter for a district which is fed by 10 rivers,” Kahlon told TOI.
Jal Nigam executive engineer Girish Chandra said, “The department will soon conduct a survey to ascertain the groundwater level the district.”
According to scientists of plant physiology, 1.6 kilogram of summer paddy needs at least 2000 litres of groundwater to grow, while Pilibhit has an estimated 25,000 hectares under summer paddy cultivation.
Shailendra Singh Dhaka, plant physiologist at Krashi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), Pilibhit, said “The summer paddy crop is sown in March and takes 90 days to ripe. Since this period normally does not have the required amount of rainwater for irrigation, the crop needs groundwater irrigation after every three days for survival.”
“Since 1.6 kilogram of paddy needs around 2000 litres of groundwater, with the reported production of 80-85 quintals of paddy per hectare in the district, the total area under cultivation, 25,000 hectares, needs 266 crore litres of groundwater,” Dhaka said.
Ravindra Kumar, a former plant physiology scientist at International Rice Research Institute, the Philippines, who is a professor at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology in Meerut, told TOI, “Around 40-45% of the total groundwater used for summer paddy irrigating evaporates, 35% transpires (released by plants in the environment due to heating), 5-7% is lost in runoff and only 13-20% of water that percolates down through the soil recharges it.”

With this period also being the harvesting season for wheat crop, canal water is also not available for the irrigation of summer paddy and most of the canals run dry.
Dalip Kumar, executive engineer, canal department, said, “Pilibhit has a network of 90 canals, of which 87 irrigate fields while the remaining three are feeder canals, which supply water to minor canals. We keep most of these canals dry during this period to save wheat crop from accidental waterlogging. Besides, farmers, too, don’t need water during the harvesting of rabi crops.”
It is noticeable that many states, including neighbouring Uttarakhand, have already enacted laws banning summer paddy cultivation to check excessive discharge of the groundwater. Punjab was the first state to issue ordinance in April, 2008, prohibiting transplanting of paddy saplings before June10, during pre-monsoon season.
Mohan Singh of Khandepur village under Puranpur block and Sukhveer Singh of Amaria tehsil, who are cultivating summer paddy, told TOI, “About three years ago, the groundwater was available at a depth of 18-20 feet, which has now fallen to 21-25 feet. This is evident from bore-wells dug by farmers at different period.”
Acknowledging the importance of groundwater survey,
district magistrate Akhilesh Kumar Mishra said, “I will soon invite a team of
state hydrology department to Pilibhit to conduct a survey of groundwater,
which is very important.
California's Lost Wetlands Get Help From Sacramento Valley Rice
Farms
LISTEN
Snow geese feed in a rice field in the Williams area
of Colusa County. (Jim Morris/California
Rice Commission)
Listen to this and more in-depth
storytelling by subscribing to The California Report Magazine podcast.Before the Gold Rush, the Central Valley in California was like
a bathtub. Rivers full of water from the mountains meandered through the
valley, spreading the water far and wide across a vast expanse of natural
wetlands.
This created rich feeding grounds
for migrating species: salmon going to and from the ocean, or birds flying
through from Alaska or Argentina. But with the development of farms, dams, houses
and roads over the course of the 20th Century, California lost more than 90
percent of its natural wetlands -- and that, in turn, threatened the wildlife.
Now, the northern part of the
Central Valley -- the Sacramento Valley -- looks like a quilt of perfectly-level
rice fields. It’s a vastly productive area that has made the state second only
to the Mississippi Delta in rice production.
That dramatic change in the
landscape may sound grim, but in California’s rice country, some strange
bedfellows are working together to address the historic loss of wildlife
habitat, in a way that makes rice farming part of the solution.
Just outside the tiny town of
Richvale this past winter, fourth-generation farmer Josh Sheppard maneuvered
his ATV over the leveesfarm, his dog Tonka in tow.
When Sheppard talked about the
Calrose sushi rice he grows, he became almost poetic.
“It’s an amazing thing to
witness. You can see the plants growing under the water on nice warm night,” he
said. Driving up the next morning, “It’s satisfying to see rice seed come
through the water and totally change the landscape of the field.”
He showed me rice fields flooded
with a few inches of water but it felt more like we were on a bird-watching
tour. Sheppard pointed out egrets and herons, Sandhill Cranes, curlews, ibis
and countless ducks and geese filling whole sections of rice fields.
A lot of these are migratory
birds, but here they had found a welcome rest stop on a working farm.

from a rice field as part of a "variable draw down," releasing water
from a quarter of his fields at a time, creating a variety of habitat for
different migrating birds. (Lisa Morehouse/KQED)
“They use these rice fields as
their surrogate wetlands that used to naturally exist 100 years ago,” Sheppard
explained. “Most of those natural wetlands have been developed over, but these
rice fields are a perfect substitute.”
When I met Sheppard in early
February, he was purposely adjusting the water levels in his fields — all for
the birds. As his dog splashed around in the water, Sheppard kneeled on a levee
at a concrete gate, tugging at a few boards of lumber which hold back all the
water in the field.
Government and non-profit groups
pay Sheppard and other farmers to add water to some fields or release it bit by
bit over a month. That gives migrating birds a few more weeks of feeding time
by turning the Sacramento Valley into a checkerboard of simulated wetlands and
mudflats. Some birds prefer fields with a few inches of water on them, while
others like looking for bugs in shallow puddles. These different habitats
attract various types of birds that need to fuel up before their long journeys
north to nest.

together for that as Californians, whether we agree on all of that or not.
Habitat and conservation are crucial.'Regina Stafford, California
Waterfowl Association
I’m no birder, but I spotted a
curlew with a long, curved beak, and Sheppard pointed out a piper: “That
shorter-legged guy, see them dipping into the shallow water there, looking for
bugs? Eating breakfast is what they’re doing.”
It would be much more efficient,
and less risky for his whole farming season, to release all of this water at
once, and early.
He said, “To hold water a little
longer, that was a concept a little bit foreign to us at the beginning.”
Sheppard described a meeting he
attended in 2008. A bunch of bird conservationists and rice farmers gathered in
a room with a whiteboard to share ideas. The bird experts offered ideas about
what certain bird species needed to thrive, and talked about what farmers could
do after harvest to make the Sacramento Valley hospitable for migrating birds.
“When we really realized the
benefit of it, it became kind of like ‘Oh heck yeah, we're going to do that,’”
Sheppard said. Especially with conservation groups offering to offset some of
the costs of labor and water, he said, “Why would we not?”

Grove area of Sutter County. (Jim Morris/California Rice Commission)
A recent study of just one of
these programs, The Nature Conservancy’s BirdReturns, showed that the actively-managed rice
fields were attracting two to three times as many birds as before.
Of course, creating good bird
habitat also helps create good publicity for the rice industry. Rice is among
California’s top-ten most water-intensive crops. The homepage of the California Rice Commission is
dominated by a dramatic video of snow geese landing on a rice field. And the
Commission’s logo features a rice plant topped by a wading bird.
But Sheppard himself admitted,
“There was a time even when the rice industry, we weren’t the poster child of
all the environmental stuff that we have adopted.”
He’s talking about the old
practice of burning rice fields.
Putting Out the
Fires
As kid, Jessica Lundberg — a
third-generation member of Lundberg Family Farms -- heard people complain
that rice farmers mucked up the air by burning fields, a cheap and effective
way to get rid of the straw left over after the rice harvest.
"It was terrible,” she
remembered. “All of the fields would go up and maybe a two- or three-week
period in the valley [everything] was just socked in with smoke, and you
couldn't really even see the foothills."
Jessica Lundberg of Lundberg Family Farms. (Lisa
Morehouse/KQED)
Her family’s business stopped
burning in the 1960s. Her grandparents, originally from Scandinavia, then the
Midwest, lived through the Dust Bowl before settling here, and saw how farmers
needed to steward the land.
“If that's your mentality, if
you're going into it thinking, ‘I have to take care of all of this,’ then you
start looking for solutions, you start asking questions,” she said.
They passed that belief system on
to their sons who took over the business. Lundberg says her dad always kept an
Audubon book in his truck, and taught her to learn the seasons of wildlife, as
well as farming.
In the 1990s, the state
significantly restricted burning in rice country, so farmers started flooding
fields, instead, to decompose that rice straw.
Lundberg said, “The water in the
fields, it’s a great habitat for insects.” Those in turn attract the birds.
She pointed out that the area
sits right on the Pacific Flyway for migrating birds. So once the burning
stopped, the birds began landing and feeding again. “It took several years, but
it doesn't take birds long to tell their friends that there's some good stuff
going on over here,” she said.
Millions of migrating birds visit
the Sacramento Valley, but it’s still working farmland, which means there are
birds and farm machines wanting to be on the same fields at the same time.
Saving Eggs
From Machines
Early last summer, I met up with
Regina Stafford and her team from the California Waterfowl
Association in a rice field that was about to get tilled. They
had two big ATVs, a rope, and tin cans filled with gravel. It’s called a “drag
rope” and they tied it between the two ATVs.
In early June 2017, the Egg Salvage team from the
California Waterfowl Association "drags" a rice field before it's
tilled. They attach tin cans filled with gravel to rope tied between two ATVs,
and then drive slowly down the field, hoping to flush ducks nesting in the field. (Lisa Morehouse/KQED)
“The rope spins on swivels as we
go. It’s nothing high-tech for sure!” Stafford said.
Ducks love to nest in dry rice
fields before planting season. But when workers bring out the big machinery,
they could easily miss the nests and crush them, eggs and all. To avoid that,
Stafford and her Egg Salvage team drove the ATVs slowly, in parallel, down the
bumpy field, using the gravel-filled cans as simple noisemakers to flush the
ducks.
Suddenly, one of her colleagues
called out, “Bird! Bird! Bird!”
Stafford explained, “We just had
a hen flush from the nest so we’re going to stop and check it out.” Team
members placed the eggs in cartons and added some down for protection.
All the salvaged eggs this team
collects are sent to a nearby hatchery, where they mature into ducks.
A few weeks later, Regina
Stafford was on a private ranch, leading an educational program and teaching
kids how to put identifying bands on the young ducklings’ legs, and how to
release them into the habitat.
She warned a group of kids, each
hanging onto a duck, “Remember, they can’t fly, so we can’t do any duck
chucking.” The kids squatted at the edge of the water, and on the count of
three released the ducks.

salvaged eggs onto habitat at a private hunting club. (Lisa
Morehouse/KQED)
Stafford’s organization,
California Waterfowl, saved nearly 4,000 eggs last year -- but it’s a hunters’
organization, and it’s a private hunting club that houses the hatchery and
habitat. So I asked: Are they just saving eggs to make more ducks for hunting?
She replied that, habitat like this, paid for by hunters, helps support all the
birds that migrate through this area.
“You only conserve what you
know,” she explained. "We all have to come together for that as
Californians, whether we agree on all of that or not. Habitat and conservation
are crucial.”
A Side-Benefit
For Salmon?
So, if hunters, farmers and
conservationists can come together for birds who find surrogate wetlands in
these fields, could other wildlife also benefit from sharing space with rice?
The answer is yes, according to Jacob Katz, a scientist with the organization California Trout.
“Two million salmon once came
through the Golden Gate into the rivers of the Central Valley. What we think
we’re looking at here is the key to that kind of abundance again,” he said.
I met Katz at a large rice farm
full of swans, dowitchers and Sand Hill Cranes. To demonstrate his theory, Katz
took me to three different bodies of water. First, the Sacramento River, where
Katz’s colleague Jacob Montgomery donned waders and tossed a plankton net into
the river to take samples, which he then deposited in a plastic bag.
“What you’re looking for is
movement,” Katz said, peering into the bag. “What we'd like to see in a fertile
water sample is bugs, which we simplify to fish food. What we see here is
drifting sand, a little bit of plant parts, but very few bugs.”
Scientist Jacob Katz compares water samples from a
flooded rice field, a canal and a river. The rice field sample contains tens of
thousands of bugs, great food for fish. (Lisa Morehouse/KQED)
In a nearby canal, the results
were similar. “Some floating debris, but not a lot of life, not a lot of
wiggling invertebrates,” Katz said.
Finally, Montgomery gathered
water from a flooded rice field. When Katz held up the plastic bag, he smiled.
“It’s teeming, it’s writhing,” he
said. “The truth is there’s probably hundreds of thousands of individuals.”
At least tens of thousands,
anyway. They’ll find the exact number later at their UC Davis laboratory. If a
young salmon lives in the rice fields, Katz said, “It’s going to get big, fat,
robust. It’s going to pack a big lunch to trip down to the ocean, and have a
much better chance of returning as an adult.”
Katz and his team found that by
letting salmon feed in flooded rice fields they grew seven times faster than
fish in the nearby river channel.
“First we'd like to see gates in
our levees and our bypasses that would allow water and fish to flow out of the
river and onto managed floodplains that provide them with food access with
incredible habitat,” Katz said. “We upgrade our cell phones every six months,
it seems like 100 years is long enough to wait for levees 2.0.”
But for some agricultural
landscapes, getting fish access to rice fields and back to the rivers would be
really difficult.
Since this water from flooded
rice fields is so thick with great fish food, Katz would like to see hundreds
of thousands of acres drained strategically back into rivers, where endangered
fish populations feed.
“I think most people think that
endangered species are inevitable and what our work is showing us is that
that’s not the case. We’re trying to say— we’re not going back, we’re never
going to be able to recreate tens or hundreds of thousands of acres of waving
tule and wetland. But if we understand how that system works, if we understand
the mechanisms that created that kind of abundance...” then, he said, we can
learn how to create landscapes for the benefit of fish, birds, and agriculture.

Modified rice grown in saline fields to
hit China market
China aims to grow rice in polluted, saline fields. Photo:
Xinhua
As researchers
try to find a variety suited to arid ares, public mistrust is high with tips on
how to identify 'saline rice' circulating online
ASIA TIMES STAFF APRIL 11, 2018 7:37 PM (UTC+8)
Beijing has sounded the food
security alarm as sweeping industrialization nibbles away at the nation’s
farmland, along with pollution and erosion further complicating the situation. China’s
shrinking arable land has forced agriculturalists to devise ways of growing
alkali-resistant rice in barren, saline-alkaline soil, which is estimated to
total 100 million hectares.
State broadcaster China Central Television has reported that
experts from the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences have selected 176
types of rice for nationwide trials. The goal is to find at least one type of
rice that will pass the academy’s tests, according to Zhang Guodong, the deputy
director of the Qingdao Sea Rice Research and Development Center.
The aim is to get the optimum yield and best quality rice that
can be grown in the nation’s northwestern provinces, including the arid and
semi-arid regions in Northwest China’s Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region and
the Yellow River Delta. These are areas that reply on rice grown and shipped
from elsewhere.
“The rice will be promoted and planted across the country next
year if the tests proves successful,” Li Xinqi, a research fellow at the China
National Hybrid Rice R&D Center, told the Global Times on Sunday.
Chinese consumers are wary about the quality and dangers of rice
grown in polluted fields and tips about identifying what’s known as “saline
rice” have been circulating on social media after rumors of the rice being on
sale for a long time.
Li told Global Times, in a bid to dispel the skepticism, that
the rice may contain different elements, but its taste and nutritional value
would only be slightly different from ordinary rice.
This rice was developed by Yuan Longping, China’s “father of
hybrid rice,” who helped establish the Qingdao center in October 2016.
Another report that appeared in the Agriculture Daily noted that
“saline rice” would only be used to feed cattle and was not
genetically-modified, so consumers should not worry too much about potential
health risks
The
economics of rice in Southeast Asia

Pattani. (AFP Photo/Madaree Tohlala)
It is irrefutable that rice is the staple food
of Southeast Asia. This love affair with the seed of the grass species, oryza
sativa is not only rooted in the tangible world
but has its own mystical underpinnings to it. Such a relationship is observed
through the worshipping of the goddess of rice, fertility, and wealth, Dewi Sri,
by communities in what is now modern-day Indonesia, prior to the advent of
Islam. In today’s world, this religious adulation has now turned into economic
endeavour with the cultivation and export of rice. Among some ASEAN member
countries, rice cultivation and export has become an important contributor to
their respective Gross Domestic Products (GDPs).
The Asian Development Bank has projected that
total rice output in ASEAN will grow at 1.37% annually, from nearly 110.5
million tonnes in 2010-2011 to 128.3 million tonnes by 2021-2022. In addition,
most of this projected output is contingent on improved yields, increasing by
1.22% per annum.
Amidst the rice pledging scheme that is now
synonymous with the country, Thailand retains top spot as the region’s largest
exporter of rice. This scheme was introduced by Yingluck Shinawatra in her 2011
election campaign and was subsequently implemented after she was given the
mandate to lead the nation. One of the components within the scheme is the
direct buying of unmilled rice by the Thai government from farmers at
approximately twice the market rate. It is argued that such a move would put
money into the pockets of poor farmers and stimulate domestic demand. However,
according to a report by the Global Legal Monitor, the government would end up
having to provide subsidies amounting to a whopping US$9.375 billion, an amount
that would surely place a burden on the Thai economy.
Considering the fact that two-fifths of Thais
work in agriculture (with most of them being rice farmers), the incumbent
leader of Thailand, General Prayuth Chan-ocha has not done away with the
aforesaid scheme, rather he has re-evaluated it. His state budget for subsidies
is less than 10 percent of what was implemented prior. Chan-ocha has realised
that he needs to implement policies that will facilitate an equilibrium in
supply and demand. This is to avoid excessive price fluctuations and a heavy
burden on public finances when market intervention is necessary to ease the
hardships of farmers.
It is interesting to note that in 2017,
Thailand exported 11.25 million tonnes of rice, an all-time record, up 14.8
percent year-on-year. As for 2018, The Land of Smiles is expected to export 9.5
million tonnes of rice, which indicates an improvement through Chan-ocha’s
smart recalculation of the plan implemented by his predecessor.
Another point of concern is the quality of rice
piling up in Thailand’s warehouses. There are growing claims that substandard
rice of a dissimilar grain has contaminated the stocks. Criminal groups and
less than honest officials are said to have smuggled in thousands of tonnes of
cheap grain from Cambodia and Myanmar, in the hope of taking advantage of the
government’s generosity.
The significance of rice economics in the
region is further exemplified by Indonesia’s production of this commodity.
Agriculture Minister of the Republic, Amran Sulaiman pointed out that the
country had produced more rice than it needed in 2017, meeting President Joko
Widodo’s target of rice self-sufficiency. Not only that, Sulaiman also
mentioned that rice production in January 2018 reached 8 million tonnes, more
than the average monthly comption of 2.5 million tonnes.
Considering the multifaceted nature of rice
economics in the region, it is important that proper regulation be put in place
and implemented so as to do away with the tampering of rice stockpiles. Also,
rice schemes ought to be thoroughly studied by governments and regulating
bodies before their implementation. As in the case of Thailand during
Shinawatra’s rule, an attempt to pander to the whims and fancies of the
agribusiness sector and fulfilling an election campaign promise made prior to
being elected, has had damaging repercussions on the country’s economy. General
Prayuth’s timely re-evaluating of the scheme has to a certain extent prevented
more serious financial implications on Thailand’s economy.
P351,650 worth of shabu seized on Holy Week Monday,
April 02, 2018
By GLAZYL Y. MASCULINO AN
ESTIMATED
P351,650 worth of suspected
shabu (methamphetamine hydrochloride) was seized from 13 persons in separate
anti-illegal drugs operations in Negros Occidental during the Lenten season. In
Bacolod City, a college professor and two others were arrested in a drug bust
inside an inn on Araneta-Luzuriaga Streets in Barangay 13 around 11:50 p.m. of
March 31. Joint operatives of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency
(PDEA)-Western Visayas and Police Station 1 collared Alexander Enarle, 50, of
Silay City, Negros Occidental, a high-value target; Cristita Caramit, 53, also
of Silay City; and Ramil Mahilum, 48, of Sitio Sibucao, Barangay Banago, a drug
surrenderer. Authorities recovered from them seven sachets of suspected shabu,
two improvised tooters, and marked money.
All three suspects were
detained at Police Station 1. Also arrested in a drug bust in the city last
March 30 were Jason Bayson, 22, of Purok Lubi, Barangay 3, after police
confiscated from him 12 sachets of suspected shabu amounting to P15,000, the
P200 marked money, and an empty sachet. His companion, Jovito Talaver, was able
to escape during the operation. Bayson was detained at Police Station 2. On the
same day, a 15-year-old boy of Barangay Handumanan was arrested in a stakeout
operation in the said village. He yielded two sachets of suspected shabu worth
P7,500, a pouch, and an improvised tooter. He was turned over to Social
Development Center for custody. On March 29, the younger brother of the city's
top drug suspect, Ramy Poja, and his right-hand were arrested in a drug bust on
Murcia Road in Barangay Singcang-Airport around 1 a.m. Collared were target
subject Rex Poja, 36, of Barangay Estefania, a high-value target; and
right-hand Mario Ferrer, 43, of Barangay Banago. Inspector Adrian James
Albaytar, assistant team leader of City Drug Enforcement Unit (CDEU), said Poja
and Ferrer on board a pick-up truck sold a shabu to a police agent for P1,000.
Police recovered from them six sachets of suspected shabu amounting to
P250,000, the P1,000 marked money and a pick-up truck.
Albaytar said Poja has been
engaging in the illegal drug trade even before authorities went after his elder
brother. He took over his elder brother's drug transaction, Albaytar added.
Both are detained at Police Station 8 for the filing of charges for sale and
illegal possession of dangerous drugs. Last Tuesday, a female newly-identified
drug personality and her partner were arrested in a drug raid at Purok Star
Apple 2 in Barangay 27 around 10 p.m. Police identified the suspects as Ruffa
Ubas and Gregg Aruda. Authorities confiscated from them five sachets of
suspected shabu amounting to P75,000, and the P500 marked money. Ubas and Aruda
are detained at Police Station 4.
In Negros Occidental, Gil
Lee, 59, of Barangay Old Sagay, Sagay City, was arrested on March 30 after
police seized from him two sachets of suspected shabu worth P1,500, P50 in
cash, a cellular phone, the P500 marked money, and a cellular phone. On Friday,
Junmar Kyamko, 34, of Barangay 6, San Carlos City, a newly-identified drug suspect,
was collared in a buy-bust in the said village that resulted to a confiscation
of a sachet of suspected shabu worth P650; drug paraphernalia, the P500 marked
money; and P140 in cash. Four days ago, Ken Christian Robles, 19, of Barangay
Binicuil, Kabankalan City, was collared in the said village after he dropped a
sachet of suspected shabu amounting to P1,000 on the street. Police also
recovered from him a lighter. On March 28, Robert Ambrosio, 31, of Barangay
Maquiling, Sagay City, was arrested for sale and illegal possession of
dangerous drugs in the said village that led to a recovery of three sachets of
suspected shabu worth P1,000, the P600 marked money, and P690 in cash

No hike in NFA
buying price in bid to boost rice supply
Philippine Daily Inquirer / 07:00 AM April 11,
2018
The Department of Agriculture (DA) and the
National Food Authority (NFA), which was once under the DA until its transfer
to the Office of the President, have listed several measures that officials of
the two agencies said could lure farmers to sell rice to the government but
increasing the NFA’s buying price appeared to be out of the picture.
Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel Piñol said
his department and the NFA, under administrator Jason Aquino, were expected to
sign an agreement next week putting on paper the agencies’ cooperation in
efforts to get more farmers to sell to the government amid a crisis in the
NFA’s supply.
The coordinated effort, according to Piñol,
had been approved by President Rodrigo Duterte in a meeting in Malacañang last
week.
Incentives
The agreement would have the DA and NFA
identify areas where the buying prices of palay were lower and not controlled
by private traders and middlemen, Piñol said.
These would be the areas where the NFA
would double efforts to buy rice from farmers, he said.
The deal would also require the DA to set
up drying facilities in NFA’s buying stations which farmers could use for free
provided that they sell their produce to the NFA.
The DA, according to the deal, would offer
incentives fo farmers’ groups which would participate in the NFA procurement
program.
Philippines to import 250,000 tonnes of
rice from Vietnam or Thailand
Hanoi (VNA) – The Philippines is considering an emergency purchase of up to 250,000 tonnes of rice from Vietnam or Thailand to ensure enough rice for domestic consumption during months of bad harvest.
According to the Philippines’ National Food Authority (NFA), officials concerned are in the process of reference for the emergency purchase.
Under a new decree of President Rodrigo Duterte, the state-run grains agency may resort to alternative methods of procurement, especially during emergency cases. Therefore, the NFA said that whoever can bring in the rice requirement the fastest and the cheapest will be awarded the supply contract.
Duterte on April 5 met with rice traders to appeal to them not to hoard rice or sell the grains at higher price.Rice traders promised to sell white rice at a price lower than the current market price and provide market with 700,000 sacks of rice.-VNA
Government allots P6.1 B for
emergency rice imports
NFA
is set to send the letter of invitation to the governments of Thailand and
Vietnam for the supply of 250,000 MT of 25 percent brokens long grain white
rice well-milled.
Louise Maureen Simeon (The Philippine
Star) - April 11, 2018 - 12:00am
NFA is set to send the letter of
invitation to the governments of Thailand and Vietnam for the supply of 250,000
MT of 25 percent brokens long grain white rice well-milled.
Only Thailand and Vietnam can
participate in the bidding process since they are the only ones with an
existing memorandum of agreement with the Philippines.
NFA will open sealed bids on
April 19 and issue the notice to proceed on April 24.
Of the total volume, 200,000 MT
are expected to arrive not later than May 31 and the remaining 50,000 MT will
arrive not later than June 30.
The rice imports will be
discharged in the ports of La Union, Subic, Manila, Tabaco, Iloilo, Bacolod,
Cebu, Tacloban, Zamboanga, Cagayan de Oro, General Santos City, Davao and
Surigao.
The P6.1 billion budget estimate
is based on the average prevailing world market price of rice and foreign
exchange rate at P53 per dollar.
President Duterte used his
emergency power to bring in much-needed rice into the country to replenish
NFA’s rice buffer stock.
NFA is required to maintain a
food security reserve good for at least 15 days at any given time.
While the interagency council
preferred the government-to-private (G2P) scheme, G2G is the best option right
now to immediately replenish stocks of cheap rice in the market and stabilize
prices of commercial rice.
The emergency import is also on
top of the earlier approved 250,000 MT of rice via G2P
Bangladesh's rice imports set to skid as
domestic output rebounds -officials
* Bigger summer rice crop trims import needs
* Imports seen at 1.2 mln T vs 3.5 mln T yr ago
* India’s exports could fall by 1 mln T in 2018
By Ruma Paul and Rajendra Jadhav
DHAKA/MUMBAI, April 11 (Reuters) - Bangladesh’s rice imports are
likely to plunge 66 percent from a year ago to 1.2 million tonnes in 2018/19 as
the south Asian country is likely to harvest a bigger crop after prices jumped
in the domestic market, industry officials told Reuters.
Lower imports by Bangladesh could reduce rice exports by India,
the biggest supplier to the neighbouring country.
“Bangladesh is unlikely to buy actively in the market next
fiscal year like this year. It’s imports would be around 1.2 million tonnes,”
Nitin Gupta, vice president, rice business at Olam India, told Reuters.
Bangladesh has imported 3.5 million tonnes of rice so far in the
current fiscal year ending in June, massively up from 133,000 tonnes in the
previous year as floods ravaged its domestic crop.
“There won’t be panic buying from the government next year.
Stock level has improved significantly,” said a Mumbai-based dealer with a
global trading firm. He declined to be identified citing company policy.
As well as higher supplies, a bigger inventory will cut the
country’s imports in coming months, said Badrul Hasan, head of Bangladesh’s
state grain buyer.
Rice stocks have risen to 1 million tonnes after falling to
245,000 tonnes in May 2017, the lowest in 10 years, food ministry data showed.
In 2017, rice prices in Bangladesh jumped due to depleting
inventory and forced the government to seek supplies from Asian countries like
India, Thailand and Vietnam.
The price rise prompted farmers to expand areas under the
summer-sown crop, also known as ‘Boro’, to more than 4.9 million hectares,
exceeding the target of 4.7 million hectares, said Mohammad Mohsin, director
general of Department of Agriculture Extension.
The country’s rice output from the summer crop could rise nearly
6 percent to 19 million tonnes, he said. Boro crop usually contributes more
than half of Bangladesh’s typical rice production of around 35 million tonnes.
The harvesting of Boro crop has started and likely to be
completed by first week of July.
Bangladesh’s rice production in 2018/19 is expected to recover
to 34.7 million tonnes, up 6.3 percent from a year ago, estimates the U.S.
Department of Agriculture attache in Bangladesh.
Meanwhile lower imports by Bangladesh will dent India’s exports,
which surged to a record in 2017.
India, the world’s biggest rice exporter,
managed to ship more than usual in 2017 due to good demand from Bangladesh and
Sri Lanka, but this year exports could be 1 million tonnes lower than last
year’s 12.5 million tonnes, said Olam’s Gupta.

Rice exporters pin high hopes on Iran visit
LAHORE - A 16-member delegation of Rice Exporters
Association of Pakistan (REAP) has left for Iran to explore trade and investment
opportunities in general and enhance rice export to the neighbouring country in
particular. The delegation, led by REAP chairman Ch Samee Ullah Naeem,
will visit Tehran as well as the city of Mashhad where it will have meetings
with representatives of Tehran Chamber of Commerce, Industries and Mines and
Mashhad Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Delegation will conclude meetings
with Ministry of Health regarding GMP issues, Ministry of Commerce, GTC for
buying Pakistani rice through government tenders. The delegation will be also
participating in lunch arranged by Irani Rice Importers Association. The
deliberations are aimed at increasing bilateral trade and investment between
the two friendly countries. The chairman said the REAP would discuss the issues
related to the resumption of rice exports, which nosedived after sanctions,
from Pakistan, implementation of currency swap agreement and the condition of
good manufacturing practices (GMP) certification with Iranian authorities. He
said that Iran used to be 800,000 tons basmati rice market until sanctions were
imposed in 2010 and exports have drastically reduced to barely 60,000 tons
only. REAP considers unavailability of banking channel the only barrier for
drop in trade, he added. These dialogues between the leading businessmen and
industrialists are meant to inspire the Iranian importers as well as investors
to explore the healthy business opportunities in Pakistan, and foster new
profitable ventures. The REAP members will invite the Iranians to visit
Pakistan, where Association could arrange fruitful B2B meetings with
progressive business groups, to seek fresh collaborative ventures. The Pakistan
exporters’ team will also hold meetings with Government Trading Corporation
(GTC) of Iran, besides meeting with Health Ministry to raise the issue of GMP
certification for Pakistani rice exporters, which presently has become a major
hurdle in the way of rice export to Iran. The Iranian health ministry has set
health standards for the rice import and only those who are registered under
its GMP certification programme can export rice to the country. REAP chairman,
talking to The Nation, said that Pakistan team will also convince the GTC to
announce tenders for super basmati and long grain 386 rice so that REAP members
could avail the facility to book export orders for Iran. With a view to enhance
liaison between the businessmen of two countries, the REAP members’ group will
hold B2B meetings with Rice Importers Association of Iran. The REAP chairman
will also call on the Pakistan commercial counsel in Mashhad. REAP chairman
hoped that visit of the delegation will not only bring Pakistani and Iranian
businessmen closer but would also open doors for boosting the rice export to
Iran which is going to be a great market for Pakistan. “I hope that the country
would regain its share in the Iranian market, which can become the good
destination for their basmati exports,” he said. “Iran is one of the largest
rice importers and purchases rice worth $2 billion every year. However,
Pakistan’s rice accounts for nearly an eight percent of Iran’s market,” he
said.

Hanoi (VNA) –
The Philippines is considering an emergency purchase of up to 250,000 tonnes of
rice from Vietnam or Thailand to ensure enough rice for domestic consumption
during months of bad harvest. According to the Philippines’ National Food
Authority (NFA), officials concerned are in the process of reference for the
emergency purchase. Under a new decree of President Rodrigo Duterte, the
state-run grains agency may resort to alternative methods of procurement,
especially during emergency cases. Therefore, the NFA said that whoever can
bring in the rice requirement the fastest and the cheapest will be awarded the
supply contract. Duterte on April 5 met with rice traders to appeal to them not
to hoard rice or sell the grains at higher price. Rice traders promised to sell
white rice at a price lower than the current market price and provide market
with 700,000 sacks of rice.-VNA

Beijing has sounded the food security alarm as sweeping
industrialization nibbles away at the nation’s farmland, along with pollution
and erosion further complicating the
situation.
China’s shrinking arable land has
forced agriculturalists to devise ways of growing alkali-resistant rice in
barren, saline-alkaline soil, which is estimated to total 100 million hectares.
State broadcaster China Central
Television has reported that experts from the Chinese Academy of Agricultural
Sciences have selected 176 types of rice for nationwide trials. The goal is to
find at least one type of rice that will pass the academy’s tests, according to
Zhang Guodong, the deputy director of the Qingdao Sea Rice Research and
Development Center.
The aim is to get the optimum
yield and best quality rice that can be grown in the nation’s northwestern
provinces, including the arid and semi-arid regions in Northwest China’s
Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region and the Yellow River Delta. These are areas
that reply on rice grown and shipped from elsewhere.
“The rice will be promoted and
planted across the country next year if the tests proves successful,” Li Xinqi,
a research fellow at the China National Hybrid Rice R&D Center, told the
Global Times on Sunday.
Chinese consumers are wary about
the quality and dangers of rice grown in polluted fields and tips about
identifying what’s known as “saline rice” have been circulating on social media
after rumors of the rice being on sale for a long time.
Li told Global Times, in a bid to
dispel the skepticism, that the rice may contain different elements, but its
taste and nutritional value would only be slightly different from ordinary
rice.
This rice was developed by Yuan
Longping, China’s “father of hybrid rice,” who helped establish the Qingdao
center in October 2016.
Another report that appeared in
the Agriculture Daily noted that “saline rice” would only be used to feed
cattle and was not genetically-modified, so consumers should not worry too much
about potential health risks

Most people think eating pasta
will lead to weight-gain, but a recent
study found otherwise. It’s no suprise such a conclusion made
headlines.
Business Insider claimed:
Eating
pasta 3 times a week won’t make you gain weight, according to a new study – and
it could even help you lose it
And The Daily Meal said:
Eat
Pasta to Lose Weight, Study Says
But before you get the pasta pot
boiling, there’s an important provision to keep in mind. The groups of people
who ate pasta and lost weight were following an overall low glycaemic index
(GI) diet. This means that the weight loss wasn’t the result of eating pasta
alone, but the effect of the low GI diet.
What’s
glycaemic index?
Glycaemic index, or GI, ranks foods that
contain carbohydrates based from 0-100 on how quickly and to what level they
raise your blood sugar after you’ve eaten them. The higher the GI, the faster
and higher the rise in blood glucose concentration.
Foods ranked as having a low
glycaemic index have a GI of less than 55. Medium GI foods are ranked
between 55-70, while those with a GI greater than 70 have a high GI index.
Participants who ate pasta were
also on a low GI diet. from shutterstock.com
Pasta has a lower GI as does some
multigrain bread, rolled oats, apples, oranges, sweet potato, sweetcorn,
lentils and chickpeas, milk and cashew nuts. High GI foods include some white breads,
corn flakes, jasmine rice, potato, watermelon and rice crackers.
Eating foods from the low-GI list
more frequently than those on the medium or high GI list leads to an overall
dietary pattern with a lower mean GI value. This is thought to be important in
terms of regulating blood sugars and appetite, particularly for people
with type 2 diabetesand those who are overweight
or obese.
How
was the study conducted?
The study design is called
a systematic review, which combines a number of
already published studies answering a similar question to generate an overall
conclusion. In this case, the researchers analysed the results from 29
randomised controlled trials in adults – where diets including pasta (the main
intervention) were compared with another type of diet (the control).
The trials reviewed had
investigated the impact of eating pasta on body weight and other indicators of
body composition including changes in body fat, waist circumference,
waist-to-hip ratio, abdominal diameter and body mass index (BMI). The studies
lasted for a median of 12 weeks and included 2,448 participants.
This
review originally set out to see whether eating more pasta, independent of what
else you were eating, affected body weight. However, the researchers didn’t
find any studies that had tested whether eating more pasta
impacted body weight. All of the studies included in the review looked at the
effect of eating pasta as part of an overall dietary prescription to follow a
low GI diet.
That the pasta diets tested were,
in fact, low GI diets is a major provision to interpreting the results. This
means that the pasta groups (active arms) included people following an eating
pattern with an overall low GI, compared to the control arms where the dietary
patterns had a higher GI.
Rolled oats and apples are both
low GI foods. from shutterstock.com
What
were the results?
The systematic review’s main
findings were that eating pasta was associated with a greater mean reduction in
body weight of about 630 grams, and a reduction in BMI of 0.26 kg per square metre more in the
pasta eating groups compared to the controls. There were no significant
differences between groups when it came to other indicators of body weight or
body composition.
The authors concluded that eating
pasta in the context of low GI dietary patterns does not negatively affect body
fatness, and reduces body weight and BMI, compared with higher GI dietary
patterns.
The amount of weight loss was
similar (mean of 630 grams more in the pasta/low-GI group) in the studies that
ran for less than 24 weeks, compared to those that ran for longer (mean of 570
grams more for the pasta/low GI group). When the sub-group of studies were
examined in those with type 2 diabetes or adults with overweight or obesity,
the results were similar.
This is important because it
means people in these categories can eat and enjoy pasta without compromising
their weight status. The catch is how much pasta was eaten on each occasion.
Issues
with portion sizes
There were only 11 trials in
which the amount of pasta eaten could be quantified, and the authors did not
report how the dietary intake data was extracted from these trials and converted
to serve sizes. This pasta intake data is a potential source of error.
The Australian Guide to Healthy Eating defines
one serve of pasta as being equivalent to half a cup of cooked pasta. But
internationally what is called a serving
size varies.
There’s no international
consensus on what constitutes one serving of pasta. from shutterstock.com
The median number of pasta
servings across the studies was reported as 3.3 per week, ranging from from
nearly two to seven per week. In this group of studies, the mean weight loss
was 700 grams more in the pasta eating low GI groups compared to higher GI
groups.
Of note is that the median pasta
intake in the pasta groups was not very high. The median of 3.3 equates to only
1.7 cups of cooked pasta per week, varying from 0.9-3.5 cups. In the trials
where there was also a kilojoule restriction, the median pasta intake was 2.3
servings (1.2 cups) per week.
The authors also looked at
whether there was a dose-response effect for eating pasta. This means they
checked whether those who ate more pasta, lost more weight. The answer was no –
there was no dose-response effect.
So,
what’s the verdict?
So the conclusion of this study
could equally, and perhaps more accurately, be that following a low GI diet
reduces body weight and BMI compared with a high GI diet. And following a
low-GI diet does not have a negative effect on body composition.
The
authors suggest that future trials are needed to assess the effect of eating
pasta over longer periods of time or in the context of other “healthy” dietary
patterns. Overall though, rigorous reviews like the current one are excellent
in helping to dispel diet myths, particularly those related to carbohydrates. -

more: What is a
balanced diet anyway?
Peer
Review
I believe this is a fair, and
mostly accurate and balanced assessment of the study and its findings.
However,
I would say it’s more accurate the conclusion of this study is that: Following
a low GI diet that includes pasta reduces body weight and BMI
more compared with a high(er) GI diet that doesn’t include pasta. -

Rice researchers unveil
augmented reality app to help with Parkinson's patient safety
Rice
University student developers have designed the application, which could help
with some of the gait problems that can affect people with Parkinson's.

phone at the ground and the app can cast the image of a block or circle where
the person's foot should land in order to keep walking. Credit: YouTube
Engineering students at Rice University have created a new
iPhone app they say could help patients with Parkinson's manage a symptom of
the disease called "freezing," a temporary and involuntary inability
to move when the legs are unable to follow the brain's command.
Visual, audio or vibratory cues can help overcome that, research
has shown, and the Rice developers say their new app offers a comprehensive way
to deliver those cues.
Specifically, it incorporates augmented reality technology. A
user simply points the phone at the ground and the app can cast the image of a
block or circle where the person's foot should land in order to keep walking.
That simple cue can be enough to allow patients resume their
natural gait.
The developers say the app can also provide audio or sensory
signals through the iPhone's existing capability. (It's not available for
Android devices yet, but should be adaptable to that platform, they said.)
"This is for patients who, in their day-to-day lives,
experience freezing episodes," said Rice student Gaby Perez. "There
are a couple of devices on the market to help them, but none of them
incorporate all three kinds of cues."
Currently, many Parkinson's patients use a cane with a laser
attachment to help them with gait freezing. This is more affordable and easy to
use, they said.
"Every time you place the cane down, the laser line pops up
in front of you, cueing the user to step over it," said co-developer
Theresa Sonka. "But a lot of the time, these laser solutions have trouble
working outdoors."
"What's cool about our project is that the cheapest solutions
available right now are about $200, with some solutions costing as much as
$3,000," added fellow team member Jeremy David. "Our solution,
however, has the potential to work more effectively and at a fraction of the
cost."

Pakistani rice exports have registered a sizeable growth of
overall 29 percent in terms of value and 16 percent in quantity during first
nine months of current fiscal year 2017-18.
This was stated by the Senior Vice Chairman, Rice Exporters Association of Pakistan (REAP), Rafique Suleman while talking to newsmen here.
He further shared the figures of rice exports during the period of July to March 2018, rice exports during fiscal year 2017-18 (July to March 2018) a 29 percent of significant growth has been registered as compared to same period of last fiscal year 2016-17.
This year, he said we exported a total of 2.95 million metric tons of rice amounting to $1.412 billion, whereas last fiscal year in the same period we had exported 2.53 million metric tons of rice at $1.09 billion, which registered an overall of growth of 29 percent in terms values and 16 percent in terms of quantity.
He informed that the rice sector has refloated and come out of the crisis after a lapse of three years. With the coordination of REAP, Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP) and Customs, value of rice export trade is showing improvement which is a positive sign for the country’s economy. The REAP members are putting their untiring efforts and aggressive marketing to increase the rice exports and to earn valuable foreign exchange for our beloved country Pakistan.
He said that the REAP’s trade delegations visited various countries for an aggressive marketing of Pakistani rice.
In this regard, a delegation is currently on a visit to Iran, which is a very lucrative and potential market for Basmati Rice, he said, adding, few years back Pakistan was exporting huge quantity of rice to Iran, however, since last year, we can only export up to 100,000 metric tons of rice.
Kenya is the largest buyer of Pakistani Non-Basmati Rice and during nine months of current fiscal year (July to Mar 2018), he said, we have exported 342,000 Metric Tons of rice amounting to $ 122 million. China is the second largest destination for Pakistani Non-Basmati Rice. At the end of March 2018, we have exported 270,000 metric tons of rice valuing $99 million, he revealed.
Currently, the demand of rice in the international market has been increased and during the current fiscal year, we had a very good crop in terms of quality and quantity, Suleman said, adding, prices of Pakistani rice are comparatively cheaper than our competitors, Thailand, Vietnam etc., which is also in our favour.
Pakistani rice exporters working hard for the growth of economy and making huge investment for installing world’s latest rice machinery and most modern technology for rice value addition, he added.
Recently, Indonesian state own body, BULOG has floated a tender for the procurement of rice and (8) Pakistani rice exporters were successful to supply 50,000 metric tons and resultantly, we will be able to export $22.625 million value of rice from the country, he added.
He further informed that Indian rice is being banned by European Union due to the excess limit of pesticide residue and the Pakistani rice exporters are taking advantage of this vacuum. He hoped that the export of Pakistani Brown Rice will be increased phenomenally.

He
briefed that right now international demand for rice has been increased around
the globe. He was happy to inform that this year we had a very good crop in

comparatively cheaper than our competitors, Thailand, Vietnam etc. which is
also in our favour.
He
added that Pakistani rice exporters are putting their extra ordinary efforts
for fetching valueable foreign exchange for the growth of economy of our

He
expressed with pleasure that recently Indonesian state own body, BULOG has
floated a tender for the procurement of rice and (8) Pakistani rice exporters
were successful to supply 50,000 Metric Tons and in result we will be able to
fetch approx.US$ 22.625 Million valuable foreign exchange for our beloved
country Pakistan
He
further informed that Indian rice is being banned by EU countries due to the
excess limit of pesticide residue and Pakistani rice exporters are taking
advantage of this and hopefully export of Pakistani Brown rice will be
increased with remarkable ratio
