Carl Brothers Honored for Five Decades of Service to the Rice
Industry
IRVING, TX -- Carl Brothers received a standing ovation from his peers yesterday at the USA Rice Business Meeting General Session where he was recognized for his contributions to the U.S. industry on the eve of his retirement from Riceland Foods after 53 years of service.
"Carl's impact on the rice industry is so large, it is difficult to quantify, but I think it's safe to say the USA Rice Federation would not exist as it does today, were it not for Carl's passion, foresight, and vision," said USA Rice President & CEO Betsy Ward in her remarks about Brothers.
Hired at Riceland in 1965 as a Sortex Operator, Brothers worked his way up to his present position as the company's senior vice president and chief operating officer. Throughout his career, he has guided Riceland's expansion in export markets, rice flour, rice bran oil, and many other areas with dedication and strong leadership.
Always taking an active role in the Rice Millers' Association, Brothers served as the chairman in 1988 and again in 1997. In 1994, he was instrumental in bringing together all the U.S. rice organizations under the mantel of the USA Rice Federation, and served as the umbrella organization's second chairman from 1996 to 1998.
Brothers' expertise, experience, and insight have always been sought after. As a long-serving member of the Agriculture Policy Advisory Committee and the Agriculture Technical Advisory Committee, Carl advised several U.S. Secretaries of Agriculture on trade policy, provided technical advice on specific commodities and products, and conferred on the negotiations of free trade agreements to open markets in Mexico, Canada, Japan, Europe, Central America, and most recently Colombia. These agreements have led to millions of dollars in export business for the United States and millions of dollars for rice research.
The U.S. rice industry recognized Carl's leadership in 2009 with the industry's Life Time Achievement Award.
"The thing that stands out most to me about Carl's long career is the way he carries himself, especially when he is representing the U.S. rice industry," Ward said. "He is the embodiment of professionalism, civility, and class. I could always count on Carl for an honest opinion, a thorough analysis, or a practical solution. And I always found his advice invaluable."
Ward said that although Brother's 53-year Riceland career will end with his retirement at the end of July, his impact on the U.S. rice industry will continue for many years into the future.
USA Rice's Hartwig Schmidt Retires
Schmidt has been promoting U.S.-grown rice since 1996, and his portfolio consisted of more than one billion potential customers in Europe, the United Kingdom, Turkey, the Middle East, and Africa. USA Rice President & CEO Betsy Ward thanked Schmidt for playing a vital role for the U.S. industry by "keeping an ear to the ground and his eyes peeled, reporting both on problem areas that required attention and new opportunities for the industry."
Ward singled out one such opportunity that has paid great dividends for the industry."Hartwig went to packagers of U.S. rice in the UK and the Middle East and asked them to help pay for USA Rice promotions in their markets," she explained. "The program became enormously successful, which demonstrated to us and the U.S. government that the programs we were undertaking in those markets were valuable - so much so that the businesses were willing to invest their own money in the efforts. And getting them to have skin in the game ensures our efforts stay current."
Another of Hartwig's many accomplishments is that he almost single-handedly extended the life of USA Rice mascot Ricky Rice. Since 2006, Hartwig has used Ricky to brand U.S. rice around the globe. Ricky is so popular in Turkey, he has more followers on social media than traditional USA Rice accounts.
"We really do appreciate everything Hartwig has done for the U.S. rice industry," said USA Rice President & CEO Betsy Ward. "It was always a pleasure to work with him on difficult situations and on the occasional easy ones - they did happen from time to time. The U.S. rice industry today enjoys a stronger position and greater reputation overseas for his tireless work promoting U.S. rice."
After receiving his award from none other than Ricky Rice, Hartwig said," the proof that I have thoroughly enjoyed my work in the trade world was the fact that my original two-year assignment turned into a 22-year commitment."

Japanese rice market affected by trade pacts
10.07.2018
The Japan-E.U. agreement could go into effect as early as 2019, while CPTPP Member States are currently undertaking domestic procedures to ratify the agreement, the USDA said.
Traditionally, the United States has been a major supplier of rice to Japan. In 2017, Japan imported roughly $552 million in rice and rice products, of which 45.4% (approximately $251 million) was from the United States, the report said.
In 2017, Japan was the United States’ third largest export market for rice.In the agreement with the E.U., Japan agreed to eliminate or reduce duties for 16 tariff lines covering rice-containing products of which Japan imports negligible volumes or for which duties were already low.As part of the CPTPP agreement, which includes 10 other countries but not the United States, Japan reduced duties for 13 tariff lines covering rice flour preparations, rice cake and rice crackers.“While Japanese per-capita rice consumption continues to decline, rice remains a staple food for the Japanese diet and the only grain where domestic production levels are sufficient to meet rice consumption needs,” the USDA said.
How fertilizer use alters soil bacteria communities
CUTTACK, JULY 11
Soil supports life on earth, and
is a dynamic living system. The microorganisms living in it are part of
nutrient recycling especially carbon, nitrogen, sulphur and phosphorus.
Bacteria are a major class of microorganisms that maintain the health and
fertility of the soil. These microbes decompose soil, improve its structure
which subsequently increases water infiltration and water holding capacity of
the soil, and thus very essential for agriculture.Rice farming is the largest
single use of land on earth, for producing food. Rice is also the basic food
crop and a part of national economy in India. Farmers often use chemical
fertilizers to increase the production capacity. But frequent use of chemical
fertilizers changes soil bacteria community structure and disturbs the
ecosystem.
A team of scientists at
ICAR-National Rice Research Institute, Cuttack, led by Upendra Kumar, in
collaboration with V V S R Gupta, Principal Research Scientist at Commonwealth
Scientific Industrial Research Organization, Australia, have assessed changes
that occur in soil bacteria and resulting effects on rice production due to
continuous use of inorganic and organic fertilizers over a long period.
The experiment was initiated in
1969 with two rice crops per year as a mono-crop in wet (July-November) and dry
(January–May) seasons, except the dry seasons of 1984-1993. Six types of
treatments were selected for the experiment - absolute control (no
fertilizers), only nitrogen, nitrogen and phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium,
nitrogen phosphorus potassium (NPK), farmyard manure, farmyard manure with
nitrogen, and farmyard manure with NPK.
Soil samples were collected from
randomly chosen five places within the depth of 20cm of each plot.
Researchers then analysed of
total organic carbon, total nitrogen, available nitrogen, available potassium,
acid level and electrical conductivity of the collected soil samples. The team
further conducted DNA extraction, sequencing, and data analysis of the samples.
The team observed highest rice
grain yield and straw biomass with farmyard manure mixed with NPK. However,
grain yield and straw biomass decreased with use of continuous application of
nitrogen and farmyard manure alone. The researchers report that application of
NPK with farmyard manure increased the nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium
availability in the soil as compared to other treatments.
“We find that higher abundance of
nitrogen-fixing bacteria in balanced fertilizers nitrogen, phosphorus and
potassium (NPK) may be one of the reasons for the increase in grain yield and
straw biomass, compared to treatment only with nitrogen,” explained Upendra
Kumar while speaking to India Science Wire.
The bacterial species evenness,
which is the relative abundance of different species, was found maximum in the
soil receiving a combination of organic and inorganic fertilizers - farmyard
manure with NPK. The species richness of bacteria was found more in control
plot, without application of fertilizers, whereas, the least was recorded in
plot treated with nitrogen alone. In the NPK-treated plot, the relative
abundance of beneficial bacteria like Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes,
Cyanobacteria were found more compared to other treatments.
Higher abundance of
nitrogen-fixing bacteria in balanced fertilizers NPK may be one of the reasons
to the increase in grain yield and straw biomass, compared to N-alone treatment,
say the scientists. Further, the team found the mineralization of carbon and
nitrogen, and the activities of soil enzyme were higher in the soil treated
with farmyard manure and NPK compared to others.
The researchers have concluded
that continuous application of NPK without addition of farmyard manure
maintains both bacterial community structure and yield particularly under
eastern Indian rice cultivation system. These findings can be useful to farmers
and future researchers for the improvement in rice cultivation to mitigate
hunger and poverty.
The research team included
Upendra Kumar, Amaresh Nayak, Mohammad Shahid, P.Panneerselvam, Sangita
Mohanty, Megha Kaviraj, Anjani Kumar, Dibyendu Chatterjee, B. Lala, P.Gautam,
Rahul Tripathi and B.B.Panda (National Rice Research Institute); Vadakattu

Soybean exports to China are down big from last
year with 'lost' sales mounting
- The U.S.
has lost more soybean sales to China this marketing year than last,
according to American Farm Bureau Federation analysis of data from the
U.S. Department of Agriculture.
- "Soybean
exports to China are down significantly from last year and the volume of
outstanding sales is relatively low, indicating that there doesn't seem to
be a large volume of sales waiting to be exported," Veronica Nigh,
economist at the American Farm Bureau Federation, said in an email
- Accumulated
exports of U.S. soybeans to China for the marketing year to 27 million
metric tons, 20.5 percent less than this time last year.

Workers transport imported soybean products at a port in Nantong,
Jiangsu province, China March 22, 2018.
While
U.S.-China trade talks remain unresolved, data shows the U.S. has lost more
soybean sales to the Asian country this year than last. "Soybean exports to China are down significantly from last year and the volume of outstanding sales is relatively low, indicating that there doesn't seem to be a large volume of sales waiting to be exported," Veronica Nigh, economist at the American Farm Bureau Federation, said in an email.
Accumulated lost sales of U.S. soybeans to China in the marketing year ending Aug. 31 have grown so quickly that four weeks ago the level already surpassed that of the entire 2016-2017 marketing year, Nigh pointed out. Accumulated lost sales include cancellations, foreign purchases and destination changes.
Note: Green bars indicate Trump administration announcements on trade.
This past weekend, U.S. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross concluded negotiations with China on trade with no specific agreement. A White House statement said the two sides focused generally on supplying U.S. agriculture and energy products to China.
Beijing has threatened to retaliate on the Trump administration's proposed tariffs with duties on U.S. goods such as soybeans. China is the second largest destination for U.S. agriculture exports, and about one in three rows of U.S. soybeans go to the Asian giant, according to industry reports.
"At the moment the market environment, the business environment, is one that has extreme uncertainty underpinning it," Devry Boughner Vorwerk, corporate vice president, global corporate affairs at Cargill, told CNBC in a phone interview on Monday. "With all the uncertainty hanging over our head with potential tariffs going into place, the U.S. may lose its position with one of its biggest customers."
Minnesota-based agriculture giant Cargill has been operating in China for more than 40 years and operates six oilseed crush plants in the country, according to a letter Vorwerk sent the Office of U.S. Trade Representative on May 11.

China's magic
sea rice turns desert into oasis
TECH & SCI
By Li Ying

20:32 GMT+8
Updated 2018-07-11 15:25 GMT+8
Salt in the soil has always made it
almost impossible to grow crops such as rice. But that's now changing.The
"Qingdao Sea Rice Research and Development Center" led by Yuan
Longping, the father of China's hybrid rice, is creating a miracle –
saline-alkali tolerant rice. It succeeded in growing the new rice in coastal
regions like east China's Qingdao City and in desert areas as far away as
Dubai, growing the two countries’ bond stronger.
Executive Director Liu Jiayin noted
that the center was established in Qingdao in 2016 because it's a coastal city.
It's easy to take seawater and dilute it and desalinate it for irrigation at
the experimental base there.
They use a constant level of
salinity to select strains that are more suitable to grow on saline-alkali
land, that’s why people call it “sea rice".
Researchers select suitable seeds
and observe the growth situation of different kinds of sea rice. /CGTN Photo
Li Jiming, one expert from the
R&
D
Center noted that choosing the right seeds is important. By planting hybrid
rice on saline-alkali land, researchers can find out if the rice has
salt-tolerant genes. They then put those genes into the new seeds, which gives
the new sea rice the advantages of hybrid rice, and the feature of
saline-alkaline tolerance as well.
Last year, four strains of rice
that performed well were selected from 160 strains for planting. The yield
reached about 9.3 tonnes per hectare by irrigation with 0.6 percent of
salinity. Since May, Yuan's team has been set up experimental demonstration bases
in six different saline-alkali regions in China, namely Daqing, Dongying,
Qingdao, Wenzhou, Yan’an and Kashgar.
Liu said China now has 0.1 billion
hectares of saline-alkali land, and the center’s plan is to transform 6.6
million hectares of saline-alkali land for rice cultivation in the country,
which can produce a further 30 billion kilograms of rice per year to feed 80
million people.

planted sea rice in Dubai under bad desert conditions. /CGTN Photo
Dubai's desert provides tough
conditions, with low organic matter and seawater at 7.5 meters underground. But
researchers from China and the UAE have achieved initial success in their
experiments.
With technologies like the Internet
of Things and soil directional regulators, the predicted yield of the best sea
rice variety in Dubai has already reached about 7.8 tonnes per hectare,
evaluated by the International Rice Research Institute and experts, which means
the first phase of planting sea rice is done there.
In September, the development of
the new rice will enter its second phase: selecting stable rice varieties, and
promoting new cultivation of a 10-hectare area in Dubai, aiming to one day turn
the desert region into an oasis.
Science: Scientists show how energy landscape
algorithm details DNA’s interphase dynamics [Report]
The nuclei of cells are never
static, even when the chromosomes they contain appear to be at rest. Theorists
at Rice University have detailed the combination of forces that drive their
constant motion. An extension of their landmark energy landscape model for
proteins helped researchers at Rice’s Center for Theoretical Biological Physics
form a theory that unifies the structural and dynamic aspects of the genome
during interphase, the time before reproduction when nuclear DNA conducts the
symphony of activity that keeps the cell humming.
Scientists have long been able to
watch cells go through their cycle from interphase to mitosis and back, but it
has been difficult to understand what’s happening during each phase. In the new
study, the Rice researchers determined that the energy landscape model they
developed to analyze the spatial folding of chromosomes could also account for
genome dynamics that experimentalists have recently observed during interphase.
The open access paper published today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences by
physicists José Onuchic and Peter Wolynes and postdoctoral researchers Michele
Di Pierro and Davit Potoyan draws upon the lab’s long experience in modeling
how proteins fold.
Those models rely on
coarse-grained algorithms in which a subset of amino acids in a chain—either a
protein or DNA—represents the entire chain. The inherent energies of the
individual acids determine how the chain will fold and how likely they are to
associate with other beads along the chain.
Over the past four years, the
researchers have refined their algorithms into their Minimal Chromatin Model,
which simulates the energy landscape of DNA as it divides, condenses into a
tight blob during interphase and then blossoms into the familiar X- and
Y-shaped chromosomes in preparation for mitosis.
The model shows that both random
diffusion driven by Brownian motion and more directed movements triggered by
molecular motors help DNA wriggle in its nuclear sphere as it continually
reorganizes itself.
“At the molecular scale, the
ordinary thermal motion of particles is enough to move them around and get them
out of jams where they’re too strongly bound to other particles,” Wolynes said.
“Typically, they go to the state that’s the most thermodynamically stable. For
protein folding, these thermal motions are paramount, but in the macroscopic
world, they are completely inadequate.
“The problem at the scale of the
chromosome is that it’s much smaller than macroscopic things we see around us
but much larger than a molecule. So which rules are we supposed to apply?”
The answer turned out to be both.Wolynes
noted that experiments had showed diffusion-like motion within the chromosome,
but also evidence that ATP-driven molecular motors were helping direct things.
Experiments by other labs that stopped the motors also stopped some of the
changes in chromosomal structure.
“We decided to see what happens
if our model assumes the movements are equivalent to those at equilibrium but
are being stirred about by motors that more or less do what the random thermal
motions do, but more violently,” he said. “That got us to something that was
very much in agreement with experiments.”
The simulated interactions
between two chromosomes in a lymphoblastoid cell also revealed the presence of
between 10 and 20 dynamically associated domains (DADs), blobs of
compartmentalized chromatin—segments of DNA and their associated epigenetic
markers and other proteins—that tended to move in a coherent way. The
researchers argue that DADs arise from the microscale phase separation, like
oil and water, of chromatin segments that have different biochemical
properties.
“These DADs are a consequence of
a competition between the tendency to phase-separate and the constraints that
arise from the polymer nature of chromatin,” Onuchic said. Unlike oil and water
that fully separate, chromatin creates multiple domains that segregate by type,
he said.
“We found locations in the
chromosome that deviate from the diffusion law, as some of them diffuse faster
than others,” Wolynes said. “These jelly droplets are all different sizes. Some
diffuse for a long time, some for a shorter time, and there’s a threshold that
defines these modes of motion.”
He compared them to mayonnaise,
in which the proteins in egg yolk form droplets that bind oil and water. “Phase
separation in chromatin makes the chromosome into a kind of salad dressing in
which droplets with different epigenetic marks move coherently,” Wolynes said.
Di Pierro said the work should
appeal to both biologists who study the structure of DNA and the biophysicists
who study its movement. “We want our theory to bridge that gap between dynamics
and structure,” he said. “With a bit of physics and a bit of engineering, we
can actually show that what looks weird from one point of view or the other all
fits into the same picture.”

RESEARCHERS FIND GENE FOR MANGANESE TOLERANCE IN RICE
Metal tolerance proteins (MTPs) belong to the cation diffusion
facilitator family (CDF) and are involved in metal transport and homeostasis in
different plant species. A group of researchers from Centro de Investigación y
de Estudios Avanzados del Instituto Politécnico Nacional in Mexico studied
a rice gene OsMTP11,
which encodes a suspected CDF transporter that is homologous to members of the
Mn-CDF cluster.The team, led by Aarón Barraza, found that the expression
of OsMTP11 in the Mn-sensitive yeast mutant pmr1 enhanced
its manganese (Mn) tolerance. On the other hand, knockdown of OsMTP11 resulted
in growth inhibition under high concentrations of Mn as well as increased
accumulation of Mn in rice shoots and roots.
The overexpression of OsMTP11 in rice was found
to enhance the plants' Mn tolerance. Under a toxic level of Mn, the
overexpressing rice lines exhibited decreased Mn concentrations in their shoots
and roots. Further analysis revealed that the OsMTP11 protein is localized to
the trans-Golgi network (TGN).
These findings suggest that OsMTP11 is a Mn transporter that is
required for Mn homeostasis and contributes towards Mn tolerance in rice.For

PHILIPPINE
FOOD AGENCY TO PROPOSE EXTRA 500,000 T OF RICE IMPORTS
7/11/2018
MANILA, July 12 (Reuters) - The
Philippines' food securityagency on Thursday said it would seek approval to
import anextra 500,000 tonnes of rice this year to ensure healthy supplyand
stable prices in the local market.The cargoes should arrive in the country in
December, theNational Food Authority (NFA) said.The Philippines is one of the
world's biggest buyers of riceand usually imports from its Southeast Asian
neighbours Vietnamand Thailand. Fresh demand could underpin rice export prices
inthose countries, which have fallen amid increasing supply.
It has not been decided yet whether
any additional purchasewould come via another government-to-government deal or
throughthe private sector, NFA Administrator Jason Aquino toldreporters.
Approval would come from the NFA Council, a panelcomposed of the government's
economic managers.For this year, the council has so far approved purchasestotalling
1.3 million tonnes, including the 500,000 tonnes theNFA has bought under
government-to-government deals with Vietnamand Thailand. Private traders have
been allowed to import up to805,200 tonnes.
The Philippines recently rushed to
import rice to stabiliseretail prices of the national staple that had steadily
risenamid the absence of low-priced NFA supply in the local market.Higher rice
prices have added pressure to Philippine
inflation, which accelerated in the first half of the year tothe highest in at least five years, hurting the economy to someextent and denting President Rodrigo Duterte's popularity.

'Fixed price' needed for domestic rice consumption
12 July 2018 - 09:34am
I REFER to a recent news article published on "Bernas:
Opening up imports would not mean cheaper rice".In early June, the
government decided to end Bernas' monopoly of rice imports and established a
committee to explore alternative options to tackle our staple food. I am unable
to fathom nor understand this move that was said to be undertaken as a means to
provide cheaper pricing for rice.A removal of the sole importer status and
subsidy to Bernas, one would expect that the revenue of the government will be
increased further. Will the government then utilise this savings to subsidise
the price of rice for the end consumer? If so, in what manner?
If Bernas' role is to be removed, how will this also help
protect an estimated 150,000 farmers in the nation from problems on stockpile
issues, subsidy disbursements and miller's funding in which the company is
obligated to serve?
How would the removal of Bernas from the role of a sole importer
be able to address the rising supply and control the price of rice? Wouldn't
appointing more companies to oversee rice imports result in more foreign rice
being imported into the country?
What would stop these companies then from forming a cartel?
In any country, government policies are mainly focused on
poverty elimination and sectoral growth. As the poverty among padi farmers is
high in Malaysia, the government should regard this as an important and
sensitive issue to protect the domestic industry and for food security
purposes.
The government has to be commended for introducing a set petrol
price, eliminating the weekly stress and anticipation of the different price
back then. I call for the government to consider the same on the move to remove
the single rice importer role as to control any uncertainty and unrest among
the rice farmers and the everyday Malaysian people.As someone who consumes rice
daily, I for one believe that a monopoly rice importer is needed to maintain
and manage the national stockpile of rice to ensure sufficient supply and to
stabilise the price. We should have a "fixed price" for domestic rice
consumption.

Rice, price and everything not-so-nice

ONE top Malaysian leader prefers to eat quinoa – a complete
protein, it is gluten-free, rich in dietary fibre and has the capability of
lowering LDL or bad cholesterol – although allegedly 23 times more costly than
other grains. But for many Malaysians, rice is the preferred option.On June 6 this
year, newly-minted Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Minister Salahuddin Ayub
announced the Cabinet had agreed to end the monopoly to import rice given to
Padiberas Nasional Berhad (Bernas).
Will this new policy by the new
ruling Pakatan Harapan (PH) coalition reduce the price of this food staple?
Will ending Bernas' monopoly help 400,000 rice growers in this country?
Comprising a reported 11.2% of Malaysia's registered voters, rice growers live
mainly in Kedah, Perlis and Perak.
Malaysia's rice bowl, Kedah is a
state where Harapan's control of the statehouse is as sturdy as a stalk of
rice. In the May 9 general election this year, PH won 18 state seats in Kedah,
the same number as the combined opposition – PAS secured 15 seats while the
Barisan Nasional, which previously ruled the state, obtained a meagre three
seats.
Lowering the price of rice
involves three parties – Bernas, consumers and rice growers – and the three
interlocking issues: The monopoly to import rice, the controlled price of white
rice in Malaysia and the financial viability of growing rice in this country.
In a recent newspaper interview, Bernas' chief executive officer Ismail Mohamed Yusoff made three points. First, about 60% of rice consumed in this country is produced by local farmers. Second, the price of locally-produced rice is fixed by the government. Third, imported rice, which accounts for 30% of Malaysia's consumption, cannot be sold at a price lower than the local variety.

Second, the price of locally-produced rice is fixed by the government. Third, imported rice, which accounts for 30% of Malaysia's consumption, cannot be sold at a price lower than the local variety.
Allowing other companies to
import rice won't reduce the local price of rice because the imported grain
must be sold at the same price or higher than the local variety. This suggests
the need to cut the controlled price of locally-grown rice. However, a lower
price could mean more financial hardship for local rice growers.
PH's decision to terminate
Bernas' monopoly may be a response to a memorandum submitted last October to
the then Najib administration by Padi Rescue, a non-governmental organisation
(NGO) representing farmers, rice millers and warehouse owners. Alleging
"unfair practices," the NGO proposed ending Bernas' role in
overseeing the supply of rice, including its monopoly on rice imports.
If the price of local rice
remains fixed while the international price of the grain fluctuates, this could
have two possible outcomes.
If the global price of rice falls
below that of the local variety, the importer makes windfall profits.
However, a higher international
price will either compel the importer to absorb the price differential or stop
importing rice. In the latter event, there could be a significant shortfall of
rice. Bernas claims it uses its profits from importing rice to pay annual
subsidies to local farmers – amounting to RM700 million to RM800 million –
before being reimbursed by the government. Even if Bernas loses its monopoly of
importing rice, Malaysians will enjoy cheaper prices only if the controlled
price of local rice is either lowered or pegged to international prices.Because
Malaysia is a high-cost producer of rice, to ensure a reasonable rate of return
to local farmers, the local price of rice must be priced above that prevailing
in international markets.According to a Straits Times article,
Malaysia produces about two million tonnes of rice annually – well below this
country's estimated annual consumption of three million tonnes.To meet this
shortfall, the government spent US$377.4 million in 2016 to import 822,000
tonnes of rice.
To meet this gap in supply, Padi Rescue argues the government should push for higher output of local rice instead of resorting to imports.Given the PH government's priority in reining in government spending, should Putrajaya continue to control the local price of rice to help local farmers? Should local farmers be encouraged to increase the output of rice?

Should local farmers be encouraged to increase the output of rice?
For decades, farmers in this
country have been encouraged to grow rice to ensure Malaysia's food security.
Should this objective be modified or abandoned?
Putrajaya should note Malaysians'
food preferences have changed. According to UNI Malaysia Labour Centre
president Datuk Seri Mohamed Shafie Mammal, Malaysians' intake of wheat-based
foods has jumped by 60% from 2008 to 2017 due to the growing popularity of
pasta, bread and confectionary.
During the same period, rice consumption in this country rose by a sedate 10%.Yet another issue is the financial implications of terminating Bernas' monopoly of importing rice before the scheduled 2021 date.Despite Bernas' claims of minimal profit margin – between 0.4% and 1.8% for the last three years – unaudited accounts show a handsome pre-tax profit of RM133 million for the financial year ending Dec 31, 2016.

Indonesia’s Aging Farmers
Fewer young people are looking to
work the paddies, threatening Indonesia’s dream of rice self-sufficiency.
By Gavin McGovern
July 12, 2018
“The young generation is less interested in
agriculture; [they] think about soiled clothes with no pride as opposed to
office-looking clothes,” says Hilmi, a graduate student and millennial from
Cigugur. Hilmi and his friends were raised to view the paddies as a place of
last resort, sentiments supported by those working the fields.
Rice farmer Pak R. explains to me, “My sons and
grandchildren won’t do this work and I don’t want them to.” When pressed on the
future of his parcel of land, one he cultivates with extended family and
friends, Pak R. shrugs. “I don’t know. Someone will take over but I don’t
know who.”
On May 15, Indonesia’s Ministry of Trade
announced plans to import 500,000 tons of high-grade rice from Vietnam and
Thailand. The announcement came as a surprise to many in that it contradicted
previous assertions made by Ministry of Agriculture officials regarding
sufficient levels of rice production by Indonesian farmers. The change in tone
marked the second time in five months Indonesia’s State Logistics Agency
(Bulog) was dispatched to import large quantities of rice to combat the
possibility of consumer prices rising above ceilings set in 2017. The price
ceilings of $0.71 per kg for medium-grade rice are nearly double that of the
world average at $0.40 per kg.
Having produced 74.2 million tons of unmilled
rice in 2017 alone, Indonesia currently sits as the third largest
rice-producing nation in the world behind China and India – countries of
quadruple its population. Unfortunately these numbers seldom satisfy a country
wherein rice is consumed at rates near 150 kilograms per capita per year.
As the government seeks to maintain a
respectable public cache of rice reserves, it is not uncommon for Bulog to
import the commodity several times a year, often to ensure its availability for
urban middle-class residents. While reserves have seen a recent rise – totals
of combined public and private reserves increased from 2 million tons in
2003-04 to a target of 10 million tons in 2015 – imports continue as safeguards
against natural disasters and price instability.
This most recent round of imports marks yet
another delay in Indonesia’s decades long pursuit of sustained rice
self-sufficiency, a goal President Joko “Jokowi Widodo reiterated in his
remarks at the 2015 Jakarta Food Security Summit: “The more I learn of the
field conditions of our country, the more I’m convinced that in the next four
or five years, we’ll be able to achieve…self-sufficiency.” He continued,
“farmers said they used to produce only two tons and then it became four tons,
six tons, and now eight tons.”
While the president is optimistic, touting
increasingly positive rates of production, the rate at which rice is produced
may not prove most vital over time; rather it is the farmer population that may
be of greater concern.
With easy access to technology, and the allure
of working in more urban areas acting as a catalyst against the flow of younger
generations into the agricultural sector, numbers have begun to demonstrate
just what the future of rice paddy labor looks like in 21st century Indonesia.
Over a period of 20 years, from 1993 to 2013, Indonesia saw a steep decline in
working farmers under the age of 35. Whereas in 1993 25.8 percent of all
farmers were aged 35 or younger, that number fell to 20 percent by 2003, before
dropping dramatically to 12.9 percent in the 2013 Agricultural Census. Today,
younger generations continue to shy away from the agricultural sector in favor
of more “modern” occupations. Hilmi claims that “[the younger generation] is
more interested in promising jobs that have good salaries, a comfortable
workplace, and respectable positions.”
Indonesian paddy labor is steadily aging out of
the fields. Despite nearly half of Indonesia’s working population finding
employment in the agricultural sector, various studies claim that between 60
percent and 80 percent of rice farmers are above the age of 45. In a span of 10
years, from 2003 to 2013, Indonesia’s Central Bureau of Statistics noted a
distinct rise in the proportion of older people working the fields, a
proportion that will surely surge in the years to come.
Constant production is necessary to feed a
growing population reliant on white rice as its staple food, though what
farmers say suggests human infrastructure will continue its downward trend as
education takes priority and is seen as a path out of working the paddies.
“Young people only come when we’re in harvest
to help the family,” maintains Pak R., “We sold my livestock, my cows, and
chickens. We sold the area around our house and I partnered with family to work
in the rice fields. I did this to raise money for my son to go to school.”
Echoing Pak R.’s sentiments, Hilmi
suggests that “nowadays farmer families are willing to ‘invest’ their rice
field for their children to pay for school and higher education. With education
they believe that their children will get prestigious jobs rather than [go
into] farming… parents think and say to their children ‘be a superstar,
president, a [government] minister, don’t be like me working in a soiled
field.’”
Speaking with Pak H., an official at the
Ministry of Agriculture’s Kuningan district office, it’s apparent the choices
of millennials, and subsequent generations, have not gone unnoticed by the
Indonesian government. “The current condition of youth who go into the
agricultural sector is relatively low because they consider working in the
agricultural sector as not attractive in terms of financial [reward],” he says.
“The rice youth labor force is still largely choosing jobs outside the
agricultural sector such as offices, corporations, civil servants, and
migrating to Jakarta. This is certainly not wrong, but in the future the
government needs to encourage some of these youth to work in the agricultural
sector as a regeneration of future farmers.”
The government’s current efforts to achieve
rice self-sufficiency focus on reducing rice consumption while increasing
production through the modernization of, and investment in, physical paddy
infrastructure (i.e. paddy irrigation canals, dams), technique and farmer
support.
“Rice consumption in Indonesia is still
relatively high… efforts to reduce rice consumption have become government
priorities,” Pak H. notes, “With the diversification of local food, people who
usually eat rice three times a day can reduce to twice a day or once… this
takes time to provide understanding to the community because the culture of
eating rice has become a habit of society… We are still optimistic to reduce
rice consumption with local foods in the form of sweet potato, cassava, taro,
corn… which are widely available… It certainly needs a mutual awareness and
commitment from all parties.”
Reducing rice consumption as a means of
achieving self-sufficiency is admirable yet striking in its similarity to
failures proposed by Sukarno during the early years of Indonesia’s
independence. Taking steps to stymie rice imports throughout the mid-1960s,
following years of importing at some of the highest rates in the world,
Sukarno’s government was unable to match reduced reliance on external aid with
sufficient in-country production. Sukarno’s inability to maintain necessary
levels of rice production led to campaigns urging Indonesians to forgo
rice in favor of cassava or corn, starches viewed as lower class foods. The
campaign proved ineffective as Indonesians refused to alter their dietary
intake and felt degraded by their own government. Times became desperate.
Rising prices and frequent food shortages resulted from this lack of balance
between state rice production and the imports increasingly relied upon to feed
the nation.
Today’s production initiatives reflect those
taken during Suharto’s New Order; Indonesia’s most recent period of prolonged
rice self-sufficiency, lasting from 1984 until the 1998 Asian financial crisis.
Having replaced the Sukarno regime in 1967, Suharto sought to modernize
Indonesian paddies while utilizing the modernized techniques of a blossoming
Green Revolution. Like Suharto, Jokowi’s administration has placed great
emphasis on the expansion and repair of paddy irrigation canals. Per The Jakarta
Post, in 2017 the Indonesian government opened 80,000 hectares of
paddy, along with 500 water deposits, to curtail the nearly 110,000 hectares of
land lost yearly through residential construction.
In addition to paddy preservation and repair,
the long-range Grand Strategy of Agricultural Development 2013–2045 program,
paired with the more short-term Strategic Plan of the Ministry of Agriculture
2015–2019, itself a five year portion of the Rencana Pembangunan Jangka
Menengah Nasional – RPJMN 2005-2025, places great emphasis on the distribution
of fertilizer. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization reports
that in 2016, “fertilizer subsidies amounted to Rp30.1 trillion (US$2.27
billion), a 25 percent increase over 2014. The subsidies allow small-scale
farmers with 2 hectares or less of land to buy government-supported fertilizer
at around 50–75 percent of the market price.”
Additional efforts from the Ministry of
Agriculture include farmer insurance in times of unforeseen weather problems,
Bulog’s purchase of local grain at prices higher than that of the international
average, and various programs to educate farmers on modern techniques and
technology. Together these plans may well lead to future rice self-sufficiency.
But all these programs may prove to be in vain, if Indonesia cannot count on a
new generation of farmers to replace the generations whose members are now in
the fields. Under Suharto Indonesian rice production flourished under the
programs in place; however the threat of an aging population of farmers was of
little concern compared to the situation today.
The government is trying to address this
problem through empowerment programs for youth interested in agriculture.
According to the Ministry of Agriculture’s Kuningan district office,
entrepreneurship and paddy management training is essential in teaching the
various sides of rice production and its multifaceted nature. These programs,
along with the establishment of farmer groups geared toward women, rely on the
creation of SMEs (Small and Medium Sized Enterprises) or SMEs with
existing Sustainable Food Houses. The ultimate goal is to form a collaborative
effort with relevant agencies such as the Department of SME, Trade, BPMD, or
the Department of Manpower, in conjunction with private companies, to generate
youth interest from several angles.
These points of youth empowerment, it must be
noted, are seldom included in any official plans from the Ministry of
Agriculture to accomplish rice self-sufficiency. Partnerships with relevant
agencies have not yet gained much traction in terms of youth outreach.
As an agrarian nation seeking to curb imports
of its country’s staple food, Indonesia must establish concrete initiatives
centered on the three general areas of emphasis cited above. A national
campaign to educate students in all schools about the changes being made to
Indonesian rice farming, and its increasingly modernized technology, is a good
start. At the moment most agricultural education is restricted to those
attending SMKs (vocational high schools), rarely reaching students on a
university track. Providing government incentives to students who join
agricultural youth groups or women’s groups will increase exposure and give
more reason to work in the paddy. Economically supporting these students
through a subsidized university education, reliant upon them agreeing to work
in rice production following graduation, can help eradicate the stigma that continued
education should not lead to jobs in agriculture.
Pak H. contends, “There is still a great
opportunity for youth to go into the agricultural sector. They can generate
profits for their welfare, with strong capabilities and desires supported by
adequate facilities and infrastructure by the government. The agricultural
sector can provide a positive contribution, for the survival of youth. They are
able to increase the production and productivity of its agricultural products
through strong management, discipline and skill in the development of
competitive agriculture.”
The Jokowi administration is doing a good job
supporting farmers and the conditions in which they work. To make sure
immediate production success lasts in the long term the Indonesian government
must provide a link between the nation’s school systems and its agricultural
sector so as to steady the increasingly unpredictable future of rice paddy
labor.

Another Woolies recall: SA’s
imports still susceptible to listeriosis
2018-07-11 17:00
Woolworths has recalled a savoury rice product due to possible
contamination from listeria. Picture: Mlungisi Louw/Netwerk24
Woolworths had to issue a recall
of a food product from their shelves, following a warning which was issued by
the Hungarian Food Agency into the possible contamination of listeriosis into
its frozen savoury rice mix. The rice mix, which is produced at the Greenyard
Factory in Hungary, was identified as having being infected with the
listeriosis bacteria, but Woolworths says that the recall is simply
“precautionary”, following the warning from the food agency.
“Following a worldwide product
recall issued by the Hungarian Food Safety Agency, and purely as a
precautionary measure, we are recalling our Woolworths Frozen Savoury Rice Mix
product. The Woolworths product is sourced from Belgium and contains frozen
sweetcorn sourced from the Greenyard Factory in Hungary. This Greenyard Factory
has been implicated as the potential source of a Listeria outbreak in Europe,”
Woolworths said on Tuesday.
The recall was announced on July
4 by the Belgium based vegetables supplier, according to a report by
Just-Food.com.
“Products involved include frozen
corn, peas, beans, spinach and sorrel. Greenyard insisted the recall does not
imply the foods ‘are actually contaminated’ but the company has stopped
production at the site. The company said the products were made at its factory
in Baja between August 13 2016 and June 20 2018,” the report said.
Products from Greenyard are
shipped to 14 countries, including South Africa and the United Kingdom.
According to the European Food Safety Authority, frozen corn “and possibly
other frozen vegetables” are “the likely source” of listeria monocytogenes that
has been affecting five countries – Austria, Denmark, Finland, Sweden and the
UK – since 2015.”
In 2017 South Africa was hit by
the largest listeriosis outbreak, according to the World Health Organisation.
Food production factories owned and operated by Enterprise Foods were later
identified as the source of the outbreak, which saw its ready-to-eat meat
product range being recalled.
“In South Africa, an outbreak of
listeriosis, a serious foodborne disease, has been ongoing since the start of
2017. Between 1 January 2017 through 14 March 2018, 978 laboratory-confirmed
listeriosis cases have been reported to the National Institute for Communicable
Diseases from all provinces,” the World Health Organisation said in March this
year.
Listeria is not a new phenomenon,
however, with cases reported as far back as 1998, when in Canada, 21 cases of
listeriosis were traced back to the consumption of Camembert cheese, which led
to two women suffering miscarriages as a result of their infections.
‘All tariff
revenues must go to permanent rice fund’
July 11, 2018
AGRICULTURE Secretary Emmanuel F.
Piñol wants to perpetually earmark all the tariff revenues from rice imports
for the sector once the quantitative restriction (QR) on the staple is
scrapped.“It should be all the tariffs [from rice imports]. We will be using
those for our small irrigation projects and all the interventions [to make the
sector competitive],” Piñol told the BusinessMirror on the sidelines of a forum
at the Philippine International Convention Center on July 11. “And the duration
[of the rice enhancement competitiveness fund (RCEF)] should be perpetual.”
Congress is racing to amend
Republic Act (RA) 8178 to lift the QR by the end of the year, as Manila is
under pressure from its trading partners at the World Trade Organization to
scrap the nontariff measure. The special waiver on rice granted by the WTO had
already lapsed on June 30, 2017.
Economic managers are also keen
on removing the QR to tame inflation, which has accelerated in recent months
due to the implementation of the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion.
The government expects the
increase in rice supply—with the scrapping of the QR—to cut the price of the
staple by P7 per kilogram. Piñol’s pronouncement comes after the Department of
Budget and Management assured the Department of Agriculture (DA) that the
government has a standby fund of at least P5 billion that could be tapped for
the transition to a QR-less rice sector.The DA chief met with rice farmers and
other stakeholders recently to discuss the government’s plan for the sector
once the QR has been converted into tariffs.“The concern of the rice industry
stakeholders is the safety nets during the transition period. Because there
would be [RCEF] once the tariffs are already collected, but before the start of
the program the industry said they need P5 billion,” he said.
“So I took this up during the
[Cabinet meeting]. While there’s no provision on safety net amount for our
final budget for 2019, Budget Secretary [Benjamin E.] Diokno assured me that
there is a contingency fund, and the government will shoulder it [first],”
Piñol added.Diokno confirmed to the BusinessMirror on Wednesday that
the government has committed to cover the first year of RCEF. “We are going to
source it from 2018 funds so, instead of waiting for next year, we have already
set it aside this year.”
“It is just to make sure that the
farmers will not be disadvantaged. I’m committed to look for the money just to
assure them that there is such a standby fund,” he added. Diokno said the
amount is meant to “give the farmers confidence that there is money in case
they need it.” Sen. Cynthia A. Villar, chairman of the Senate Committee on
Agriculture and Food, earlier said the government must shoulder the P10 billion
for the RCEF that she had initially proposed.
Villar said she will incorporate
a provision mandating the allocation of P10 billion to the rice sector every
year in the Senate’s version of the rice-tariffication bill. However, Piñol
said the P10 billion was pared down to P5 billion, as it was the only available
amount.
Romeo Royandoyan, executive director
of Centro Saka Inc., said the P5 billion is not enough to jump-start the RCEF,
which seeks to make farmers competitive against their Southeast Asian
counterparts.
“Definitely, [it is not enough]
if you want to make rice farmers and the entire sector in general comparable to
Vietnam, which can produce rice at around P6 per kilogram,” Royandoyan told the
BusinessMirror. “This is crucial in view of the proposed rice tariffication.”
Royandoyan, who is also the vice
chairman of the National Sectoral and Strategic Concerns Committee-Food
Staples, proposed that the rice fund be established before the QR is converted
into tariffs. He said it would take the DA around four to five years and P40
billion to P50 billion annually to make the rice sector competitive.
The RCEF is a provision in the
tariffication bills that seek to amend RA 8178 to allow the removal of the rice
QR. The RCEF would be used for programs that would improve the rice sector’s
productivity, such as mechanization, distribution of high-yielding seeds
and provision of credit facility. The House version of the tariffication bill
proposes that the RCEF should consist of all the tariff revenues from rice
imports but will be earmarked for only six years.
“Our preference is to earmark all
tariffs collected from rice imports for the sector, as indicated in the House
version of the bill,” Raul Q. Montemayor, national business manager and program
officer of the Federation of Free Farmers, told the BusinessMirror last month.“The
P10 billion is less than what is expected to be collected in just the first
year. We basically support the House version but would prefer a longer
earmarking period,” Montemayor added. He said his group would recommend an
effectivity period of 10 years for the RCEF, which could be reviewed to
determine whether it should be extended.
Removing the QR on rice by
amending RA 8178 would allow the government to generate P27 billion annually,
according to a paper published by the Philippine Institute for Development
Studies (PIDS).
The PIDS paper noted that the
projected revenues would come from the importation of some 2.2 million metric
tons of rice at a 35-percent tariff. Purchases of imported rice are expected to
increase once the government removes the QR.

Diokno said the amount is meant
to “give the farmers confidence that there is money in case they need it.”Sen.
Cynthia A. Villar, chairman of the Senate Committee on Agriculture and Food,
earlier said the government must shoulder the P10 billion for the RCEF that she
had initially proposed.
Villar said she will incorporate
a provision mandating the allocation of P10 billion to the rice sector every
year in the Senate’s version of the rice-tariffication bill. However, Piñol
said the P10 billion was pared down to P5 billion, as it was the only available
amount.Romeo Royandoyan, executive director of Centro Saka Inc., said the P5
billion is not enough to jump-start the RCEF, which seeks to make farmers
competitive against their Southeast Asian counterparts.
“Definitely, [it is not enough]
if you want to make rice farmers and the entire sector in general comparable to
Vietnam, which can produce rice at around P6 per kilogram,” Royandoyan told the
BusinessMirror. “This is crucial in view of the proposed rice tariffication.”
Royandoyan, who is also the vice
chairman of the National Sectoral and Strategic Concerns Committee-Food
Staples, proposed that the rice fund be established before the QR is converted
into tariffs. He said it would take the DA around four to five years and P40
billion to P50 billion annually to make the rice sector competitive.
The RCEF is a provision in the
tariffication bills that seek to amend RA 8178 to allow the removal of the rice
QR. The RCEF would be used for programs that would improve the rice sector’s
productivity, such as mechanization, distribution of high-yielding seeds
and provision of credit facility.
The House version of the
tariffication bill proposes that the RCEF should consist of all the tariff
revenues from rice imports but will be earmarked for only six years.
“Our preference is to earmark all
tariffs collected from rice imports for the sector, as indicated in the House
version of the bill,” Raul Q. Montemayor, national business manager and program
officer of the Federation of Free Farmers, told the BusinessMirror last month.
“The P10 billion is less than
what is expected to be collected in just the first year. We basically support
the House version but would prefer a longer earmarking period,” Montemayor
added.
He said his group would recommend
an effectivity period of 10 years for the RCEF, which could be reviewed to
determine whether it should be extended.
Removing the QR on rice by
amending RA 8178 would allow the government to generate P27 billion annually,
according to a paper published by the Philippine Institute for Development
Studies (PIDS). The PIDS paper noted that the projected revenues would come
from the importation of some 2.2 million metric tons of rice at a 35-percent
tariff. Purchases of imported rice are expected to increase once the government
removes the QR.
With Jasper Emmanuel Y. Arcalas
Duterte to certify rice tariff bill as urgent
ABS-CBN News
MANILA -- President Rodrigo
Duterte will soon certify as urgent a bill that seeks to impose tariffs on rice
in place of import quotas to bring down the price of the staple, a finance
official said Wednesday.
With import duties in place, rice
prices can go down by P4 to P7 per kilo and shave 0.4 point from the inflation
rate, Finance Undersecretary Karl Kendrick Chua said.
Imposing rice tariffs is
"extremely crucial" and a "top priority" for government to
keep inflation within target, he said.
Consumer prices rose 5.2 percent
in June, the sharpest increase based on data from January 2013. Officials have
blamed elevated prices of oil in the world market for the record inflation.
The impact of tax reform on inflation
is "on the dot," he said.
Under the first tranche of
reforms that took effect last Jan. 1, the government raised duties on fuel,
sugar-sweetened drinks and cars to offset a reduction in personal income tax
rates and help fund the government's P8 trillion infrastructure program.

Egypt imports rice to
control market, prevent increasing prices

CAIRO – 11 July
2018: The decision to import rice aims at controlling the market and preventing
the prices hike, Head of Rice division of the Federation of Industries Ragab
Shehata said.
Shehata clarified that importing rice does not mean that the local market is in need of the product as the rice crop which is scheduled to be harvested in the second half of July, will cover 90 percent of the local market requirements.
He pointed out that the scheduled rice harvest is expected to reach about 4 million tons of barely rice and over 500,000 tons of barely rice will be imported to produce about 300,000 tons of white rice.
“There are several countries to import rice from, including Thailand, India, Russia, the United States and Argentina,” the head of rice division stated.
He also noted that the companies began to communicate with the Ministry of Agriculture to obtain import approvals.
President Abdel Fatah al-Sisi approved Sunday to import rice and to start its marketing for the coming year, and to set suitable prices for the crop in cooperation with the Ministry of Agriculture.
On June 5, the government announced its plan to import rice (paddy, mulled and cargo rice), in a way to reduce the rice-cultivated areas due to the water shortage crisis the country is suffering from.
President Sisi ratified on May 21, the newly-passed amendments to the Agriculture Law No. 53 of 1966, per which the government will determine the areas to cultivate certain water-intensive crops such as rice and sugarcane, amid the water shortage crisis in order to rationalize water usage.
Also, Article 101 of the law stipulates that those who violate the ministerial decrees issued to implement Articles 1, 2, 3, and 4 of the Agriculture Law shall be punished with a fine not less than LE 20,000 (about $1,119) and not more than LE 50,000.
On May 2, the Egyptian government agreed to increase the area allocated for rice cultivation by 100,000 feddans (one feddan equals 1.038 acres) for this season only, bringing the total area allocated for rice cultivation to 820,000 feddans, Abdel Latif Khaled, head of irrigation sector in the Ministry of Irrigation and Water Resources stated.
Thus, it is expected that Egypt will produce about 3.3 million tons this year as one feddan produces 4 tons, while Egypt's annual consumption of rice is estimated at 4.3 million tons.
However, the cultivated areas will be shrunk in the coming seasons as a result of water scarcity, given that one feddan of rice consumes 7,000 cubic meters of water.
Egypt needs at least 105 billion cubic meters of water annually to cover the needs of more than 90 million citizens. However, it currently has only 60 billion cubic meters, 55.5 billion cubic meters of which come from the Nile and less than 5 billion cubic meters come from non-renewable subterranean water in the desert. The remaining 80 billion cubic meters are covered by the reuse of wastewater.
The average per capita consumption of fresh water declined by 1.5 percent in 2015/2016 as it reached 103.4 cubic meters, compared to 105 cubic meters in 2015/2014, according to the Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics (CAPMAS) data.
A further decrease in Egypt's water resources is expected in light of the construction of the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD), which could have a negative impact on Egypt’s Nile water share.
Egypt was the largest rice producer in the Near East region, according to the FAO data in 2004. In the period between 2015 and 2016, the country exported rice with a revenue of $58 million. However, rice export was banned in August 2016 to meet the local demand after shrinking the cultivated areas.

PHNOM
PENH, July 10 (Xinhua) -- Cambodia exported 271,500 tons of milled rice in the
first six months of 2018, down 5.9 percent from 288,500 tons over the same
period last year, according to the latest report released on Tuesday.Sixty-eight
companies have brokered the country's rice for 56 countries and regions around
the world, said the report from the Secretariat of One Window Service for Rice
Export.
China
is the top buyer of Cambodian rice, followed by France, Poland, the Netherlands
and Britain, it said. The Southeast Asian nation shipped 62,100 tons of milled
rice to China during the January-June period this year, down 34 percent
compared to the same period last year. Cambodian Prime Minister Samdech Techo
Hun Sen said in May that the country produced 10.5 million tons of paddy rice
in 2017, up 5.7 percent year-on-year. With this amount, besides local
consumptions, the country would have about 5.5 million tons of unhusked rice,
or 3.5 million tons of milled rice, left over for exports this year, he said.Last
year, Cambodia exported 635,679 tons of milled rice, an increase of 17 percent
compared to a year earlier.

India's
Rice exports likely to decline from October as the government increases
guaranteed prices that farmers receive for much of their crop, making new
season cargoes expensive compared to supply from rival growers. Lower exports
would mean that India loses market share in key Asian and African markets,
traders and industry sources said, with exports from countries such as
Thailand, Vietnam and Myanmar likely to fill any gaps. India raised prices paid
to local farmers for common grade paddy rice by 13 percent from a year ago to
1,750 rupees ($25.50) per 100 kg.
The Cardamom export have drooped in the new season after a record export last year and production is also likely to be down by 40% as many plants have been damaged due to unfavorable climate. Harvest of Cardamom this season started in June, over a month early this year due to heavy summer rains in Kerala, the top producing state. But the southwest monsoon has also been intense, accompanied by strong winds. Exports to Saudi Arabia have virtually stopped in the last couple of months with the government tightening the standards for pesticide monitoring and rejecting some Indian consignments.
Soon after the Centre declared a hike in minimum support prices (MSPs) for most agricultural commodities, Saurashtra Oil Mill Association (SOMA) requested that imports of Pulses and Edible Oil to be confined to keep domestic production competitive and ensure that farmers get the benefit of higher MSPs. Pulses in general are sold below MSP throughout the season even as fairly large quantity of the commodity was imported. Similar is the case with Oilseeds. Farmers sold them below MSP even as our imports constitute more than half of Edible Oil demand in the country. During refining of Palmolien oils, a very significant quantity, about 30 per cent, is lost as a byproduct. This byproduct, known as Palm stearin, is used mainly for manufacturing of soaps and detergents.

The government typically buys more than a third of the country's rice output at a fixed price, which also has a direct impact on prices paid by traders.
Technically Mentha Oil market is under short covering as market has witnessed drop in open interest by 0.72% to settled at 1378 while prices up 55.3 rupees. Now MCX Mentha Oil is getting support at 1411.6 and below same could see a test of 1385.2 level, And resistance is now likely to be seen at 1451.2, a move above could see prices testing 1464.4. Mentha Oil on MCX settled up by 4% at 1438 due to bullish demand outlook from domestic market as well as exporters. Spot markets are also witnessing strong consumption demand amid restricted supplies. Bumper crop harvest has been discounted in the market and market is moving upwards on rising demand from end users. The Multi Commodity Exchange of India will double the total additional margin to 10% on both buy and sell side of all running as well as yet-to-belaunched contracts of mentha oil from Monday. Despite the peak season of harvest in June, prices of mentha oil have risen over 20% since the beginning of June as farmers held back stocks. Farmers are holding back stocks as they are expecting prices to rise to 1,800 rupees a kg in the next two-three months.

How fertilizer use alters soil bacteria communities
CUTTACK, JULY 11
Soil supports life on earth, and
is a dynamic living system. The microorganisms living in it are part of
nutrient recycling especially carbon, nitrogen, sulphur and phosphorus.
Bacteria are a major class of microorganisms that maintain the health and
fertility of the soil. These microbes decompose soil, improve its structure
which subsequently increases water infiltration and water holding capacity of
the soil, and thus very essential for agriculture.
Rice farming is the largest
single use of land on earth, for producing food. Rice is also the basic food
crop and a part of national economy in India. Farmers often use chemical
fertilizers to increase the production capacity. But frequent use of chemical fertilizers
changes soil bacteria community structure and disturbs the ecosystem.
A team of scientists at
ICAR-National Rice Research Institute, Cuttack, led by Upendra Kumar, in
collaboration with V V S R Gupta, Principal Research Scientist at Commonwealth
Scientific Industrial Research Organization, Australia, have assessed changes
that occur in soil bacteria and resulting effects on rice production due to
continuous use of inorganic and organic fertilizers over a long period.
The experiment was initiated in
1969 with two rice crops per year as a mono-crop in wet (July-November) and dry
(January–May) seasons, except the dry seasons of 1984-1993. Six types of
treatments were selected for the experiment - absolute control (no
fertilizers), only nitrogen, nitrogen and phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium,
nitrogen phosphorus potassium (NPK), farmyard manure, farmyard manure with
nitrogen, and farmyard manure with NPK.
Soil samples were collected from
randomly chosen five places within the depth of 20cm of each plot.
Researchers then analysed of
total organic carbon, total nitrogen, available nitrogen, available potassium,
acid level and electrical conductivity of the collected soil samples. The team
further conducted DNA extraction, sequencing, and data analysis of the samples.
The team observed highest rice
grain yield and straw biomass with farmyard manure mixed with NPK. However,
grain yield and straw biomass decreased with use of continuous application of
nitrogen and farmyard manure alone. The researchers report that application of
NPK with farmyard manure increased the nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium
availability in the soil as compared to other treatments.
“We find that higher abundance of
nitrogen-fixing bacteria in balanced fertilizers nitrogen, phosphorus and
potassium (NPK) may be one of the reasons for the increase in grain yield and
straw biomass, compared to treatment only with nitrogen,” explained Upendra
Kumar while speaking to India Science Wire.
The bacterial species evenness,
which is the relative abundance of different species, was found maximum in the
soil receiving a combination of organic and inorganic fertilizers - farmyard
manure with NPK. The species richness of bacteria was found more in control
plot, without application of fertilizers, whereas, the least was recorded in
plot treated with nitrogen alone. In the NPK-treated plot, the relative
abundance of beneficial bacteria like Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes,
Cyanobacteria were found more compared to other treatments.
Higher abundance of nitrogen-fixing
bacteria in balanced fertilizers NPK may be one of the reasons to the increase
in grain yield and straw biomass, compared to N-alone treatment, say the
scientists. Further, the team found the mineralization of carbon and nitrogen,
and the activities of soil enzyme were higher in the soil treated with farmyard
manure and NPK compared to others.
The researchers have concluded
that continuous application of NPK without addition of farmyard manure
maintains both bacterial community structure and yield particularly under
eastern Indian rice cultivation system. These findings can be useful to farmers
and future researchers for the improvement in rice cultivation to mitigate
hunger and poverty.

Upendra Kumar, Amaresh Nayak, Mohammad Shahid, P.Panneerselvam, Sangita
Mohanty, Megha Kaviraj, Anjani Kumar, Dibyendu Chatterjee, B. Lala, P.Gautam,
Rahul Tripathi and B.B.Panda (National Rice Research Institute); Vadakattu
V.S.R.Gupta (CSIRO, Waite Campus, Adelaide). The study has been published in
journal Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment.
