Nominations Still Open for USA Rice Sustainability Award
By Lydia Holmes
ARLINGTON, VA -- Only three weeks
remain to nominate yourself or someone you know for the second annual USA Rice
Sustainability Award.
The award is open to individuals or entities from any sector with significant involvement in the U.S. rice industry and with a history of promoting and advancing sustainability through innovative practices and demonstrated leadership in the sustainability community.
"Putting sustainable practices into your operation is important, but just as important is telling people you are doing it," said Jennifer James, an Arkansas rice farmer and chair of the USA Rice Sustainability Committee that created the new award. "This is about communicating to the public and our customers that we are being responsible and we are doing right by the environment. If we don't show them that we are the good guys, how will they know?"
The award committee is accepting nominations through September 28. The award will be presented at the USA Rice Outlook Conference in San Diego, California, on December 6, 2018.
The application form can be found here.

UMD
Assistant Professor Receives $1.1 Million Early Career Award from NSF to
Perfect CRISPR and Gene Regulation Tools in Plants
Advancing plant
genomics research and crop production by disseminating tools to over 36
countries and counting
CRISPR
“I always think that
tools and research should be made readily available to everyone in the
scientific community who can benefit,” says Qi. “If we want our science to help
people and solve these issues, we need to make tools accessible to everyone and
collaborate as much as possible.”
COLLEGE PARK, MD.
(PRWEB) SEPTEMBER 13, 2018
UMD Assistant Professor Yiping Qi in the Department of Plant
Science and Landscape Architecture received a $1.1 million Plant Genome
Research Program Early Career Award from the National Science Foundation (NSF)
to continue his unique work developing tools for researchers to perfect CRISPR
and apply these technologies to gene regulation in a variety of worldwide crop
systems.
Qi’s work, specifically using the rice genome as a test
platform, is providing practical tools to enhance gene editing technologies
like CRISPR and improve the specificity of genetic “cuts” that are made, ensuring
the integrity of the entire genome. Tools from Qi’s lab are currently used by
researchers in more than 36 countries around the world and counting, with the
ultimate goal of advancing plant and crop yields and helping to feed a rapidly
growing global population. They have the ability to turn genes “up and down” as
opposed to just “on and off”, which is very practical for crop productivity and
sustainability. Continued development of these tools will not only aid basic
research, but allow scientists to seek novel solutions to global challenges
such as devastating plant diseases, economical bioenergy production,
sustainable agriculture, and climate change.
“CRISPR technologies are revolutionizing biology, agriculture,
and medicine. CRISPR can be thought of as molecular scissors that cuts DNA so
that the piece related to a certain trait can be be removed, replaced, or
edited,” says Qi. “We don’t just test different kinds of these scissors in our
lab, but we have to think about how the DNA goes back together, what else is
altered, and whether we are turning a gene on, off, up, or down. All of those
specifics aren’t inherent in the scissors themselves and need specific tools
and testing to accomplish. That is what we do.”
The concept of gene editing is not a new one, and has been
accomplished with cross-breeding since humans first cultivated plants for
agricultural purposes. However, given the increasing population, food security
is a growing concern, and new emerging issues are arising for crop and food production.
There is a need to feed a projected population of 9.6 billion people by 2050
with little to no new agricultural land, meaning that yields for major crops
need to be improved in other ways. CRISPR, as a new precision breeding
technology, will enable scientists and breeders alike to do the same things
done with traditional cross-breeding programs in a much shorter amount of time
to account for new issues like disease resistance, pests, heat, drought, and
other major concerns of a changing climate and growing population.
“Rice is a very important global crop, and we have the entire
genome sequenced, so it is a great crop to study and develop tools that can be
applied to other major crops,” explains Qi. “Currently, efficient tools that
target up-regulating or down-regulating a certain gene or simultaneously
regulating many genes aren’t available to the plant biology community. But
simultaneous up-regulation of genes in human somatic cells, for example,
resulted a genome reprogramming technology that was recognized with a Nobel
Prize in 2012. Developing tools to reprogram plant genomes should help open the
door to a lot of discoveries and translational research in agriculture. That’s
why NSF is so excited about this work.”
With this grant, even though Qi is working directly with rice to
improve crop traits and yields, his work is focused primarily on developing and
disseminating the tools and technologies necessary for researchers around the
world to directly apply to all kinds of crops. Tools are made available to
researchers through a public repository called Addgene.
“I always think that tools and research should be made readily
available to everyone in the scientific community who can benefit,” says Qi.
“If we want our science to help people and solve these issues, we need to make
tools accessible to everyone and collaborate as much as possible.”
To this effect, Qi has been an advocate in the scientific
community, publishing multiple scientific papers over the last few years
related to gene regulation tools (e.g., Plant Physiology, Nature Plants,
Molecular Plant) and frequently attending talks and meetings to further promote
his research. Not only did he just return from the NSF awardee meeting in early
September for this new grant where he gave a talk on the existing tools they
have developed for the research community, but he was in Budapest the same week
giving multiple talks on plant genome editing, both to public and academic
audiences.
“Nowadays, I travel for invited
talks on a monthly basis to promote plant genome editing and transcriptional
regulation technologies,” says Qi. “It is important that people know what
technologies like CRISPR can and can’t do, and that audiences of all types are
educated on the importance of this work. I think people [at NSF] are excited to
see that my lab, thanks to the new funding, will further develop gene
regulation tools by repurposing CRISPR systems from genome editing to gene
regulation. This is an exciting new development for the field that has a lot of
applications for serious global issues.”

holding Arkansas Rice Month themed brunch
Wednesday, September 12th 2018

In honor of Arkansas Rice month,
At the Corner in downtown Little Rock is hosting an Arkansas Rice themed brunch
on Saturday, September 15th and also on Sunday, September 16th.September is
Arkansas Rice Month and Arkansas Rice is celebrating the harvest with their
brand new recipe card collection. Eat Real Rice: Favorite Recipes from Farmers, Family, and
Friends of Arkansas Rice.
The recipe card booklet features
favorite rice recipes for appetizers, entrees, sides, and desserts–rice
industry facts and trivia, as well as rice cooking hints and tips.
‘We need dicamba,’ say Arkansas
farmers, consultant 
Farmers Jessie Flye and Logan White, check rice
fields with their crop consultant Eddie Cates. Flye and White also grow cotton,
soybeans and corn and say they need dicamba technology to manage pigweed.
Arkansas farmers and their consultant say dicamba needed to
control pigweed. Urge 'reasonable' cutoff date.
Three Arkansas rice farmers and
their crop consultant agree that the new dicamba technology should have
reasonable application timing limits, but also that farmers need the herbicides
to control pigweed in cotton and soybeans.
“We need to plant Xtend soybeans
and use dicamba,” says Poinsett County, Arkansas, rice and soybean farmer
Jonathan Ashlock. “We need to be able to use dicamba. We didn’t use any at all
this year.” The cutoff date, April 15, was too early to use the product
effectively.“We need the technology, but with a realistic cutoff.”
He says other herbicides are
available but some of the most effective “are hard on soybeans. Some varieties
are more tolerant than others, so we have to know the variety.”
He also believes his best
varieties, the ones he can count on for best yields, are the ones with the
dicamba tolerant traits.
“If we don’t have dicamba next
year, I’ll plant LibertyLink soybeans. But I prefer the new technology
varieties.”
He used dicamba last year. “I
sprayed every acre myself and had no trouble at all. Education meetings
helped, and we also had more farmers planting Xtend crops, some to protect
themselves. But that’s not the best way to farm.”
Rice and soybean farmer Jonathan
Ashlock and son Logan Mitchusson check rice prospects in Poinsett County, Ark.
Cultural Practices
He rotates acreage every year,
pulls pigweed by hand and uses a pump-up sprayer to kill any escapes he sees.
“We do all that and we still have pigweed. We have some resistance,” he adds.
“We do all that and we still have pigweed. We have some resistance,” he adds.
“We need every tool we can get,”
says Jessie Flye, who farms with his brother, Logan White, just over the ridge
from Ashlock. “Maybe a May 15 to June 1 cutoff date would work.”
He says he and Logan are careful
with any spray application. “We will not spray anything if it could hurt
another man’s crop. That’s the biggest issue.”
He says they can keep cotton
pretty clean with Liberty and Roundup, with some additional chopping. But it’s
expensive. “We had a $200,000 chopping bill just to keep the cotton clean,”
Flye says.
White adds that the varieties
with the dicamba technology also produce their most consistent yields.
He and Flye say rotation and
cover crops help with weed control. They grow rice, soybeans, cotton and corn.
“We need dicamba,” says Eddie
Cates, who is the crop consultant for both farms. “They can use Liberty, but
they need this technology. Those varieties are very good.”
He says not all his clients
agree. “Some feel differently about dicamba,” he says. “I’m kinda caught in the
middle.”
He agrees that a May 30 cutoff
date could be a good compromise.
Larry Steckel, University of
Tennessee weed scientist, at an early September cotton field day in Jackson,
Tenn., said complaint reports on dicamba drift for Tennessee are about half
what they were a year ago.
He says a reasonable cutoff date
likely will be part of any new registration from EPA. He says he expects the
products to be registered.
Cates, an independent crop
consultant who has logged more than 30 years of scouting and consulting and
serves as president of the Arkansas Crop Consultant’s Association, says farmers
need the technology. “I would like to emphasize the importance of keeping this
technology,” he says. “The ability to control pigweed and the variety
selections are what the standards should be compared to. We need
dicamba.”
PCCI sees inflation curbed with quick action on agri
September 11, 2018 | 9:14 pm
THE Philippine Chamber of Commerce Industry, Inc. is seeking a
more liberalized importation scheme that would
allow even domestic processors that use sugar as a raw material to bring in
sugar at any time. — BW FILE PHOTO
THE business lobby said inflation
can be kept in check with changes to agricultural policy, particularly with
long-term reforms to address systemic production shortfalls in the sugar, rice
and fishing industries.
“It’s not alarming in the sense
that it’s obvious what is causing the problem. Rice, sugar, fish, vegetables,
services and delivery, those are the factors driving prices… There are
solutions for these things. The only thing out of our control is fuel,”
Philippine Chamber of Commerce Industry, Inc. (PCCI) treasurer and honorary
chairman Sergio R. Ortiz-Luis, Jr., said at a news press conference in Taguig
City on Tuesday.
Also the president of Philippine
Exporters Confederation, Inc., Mr. Ortiz-Luis said according to studies he has
commissioned, an 8% inflation rate is still manageable.
Nevertheless, PCCI regrets the
impact of inflation on consumers and advised the economic team to set a
timetable for its eight-point action plan.
“There must have to be a
timetable of implementing this action plan,” PCCI’s Agriculture Committee
Chairman Roberto C. Amores said during the briefing, noting however that these
are only for the short-term.
On sugar, Mr. Amores said that
the group is seeking a more liberalized importation scheme that would allow
even domestic processors that use sugar as a raw material to bring in sugar at
any time.
Mr. Amores, also the president of
the Philippine Food Processors and Exporters Organization, Inc., said sugar
shipments brought in by the government failed to resolve the price crunch as
the imported sugar was resold at a price still unfavorable to food processors.
Sugar imports are restricted to
international traders registered with the Sugar Regulatory Administration,
usually those who have participated in the agency’s sugar export program.
PCCI proposes that domestic food
processors directly import an initial amount sufficient to service the needs of
4,000 micro, small and medium-sized domestic food processors.
The PCCI also backs a more
liberal rice import regime, in which tariffs will be levied on imports.
“The pending Rice Tarrification
Bill in Congress is a welcome development that we support if it would mean
helping stabilize the price of rice and ensure its sufficient stock, not to the
detriment of our farmers,” Mr. Amores said.
In August, the House of
Representatives approved on third and final reading House Bill 7735 or the Rice
Tariffication bill.
For the fisheries sector, the
PCCI is asking the Department of Agriculture to review the ban on the use of
the modified Danish seine (MDS) method of fishing.
Mr. Amores said the ban has set
back the fish supply by about two million kilos per day leading to
“prohibitive” fish prices.
The government banned MDS due to
the damage caused to sea grass and coral.
“It’s about time that our policy
makers review and revise certain policies that are no longer contributing to
the agenda of government,” Mr. Amores said. — Janina C. Lim
Following rains, Arkansas rice
crop ‘largely okay’
Will
next Gulf weather system sweep in? 
It is Sept. 11 and having already
watched the rains generated by Hurricane Gordon sweep over the Arkansas’ roce
crop, Jarrod Hardke stands beneath gray skies and misting clouds. The Arkansas
Extension rice specialist sums up the last few weeks of the growing season:
“The weather has been weird."
“For the most part, growers were
just getting back to normal yesterday. Then, shockingly, today there’s bad
weather coming up from the south. It’s sprinkling right now. Where did that
come from? It wasn’t on any forecast I saw. Yet, it’s overcast and rain is
falling in scattered areas from Memphis south. We thought this week would give
us a break and we’d have a mix of cloudy mornings and sunshine.”
Even after the Gordon rains “our rice still largely looks okay.
Obviously, the ground is wet and growers are just diving in to make harvest
progress. The grain moisture level is not perfect, but it’s good enough to do
that. So, we’re having to mud the crop out a bit more and that’s slowing things
down.
“Some of the rice may not be
down, but it’s sinking in places. There are some flattened spots in fields –
mostly in the Prairie and south where some of the heavier rainfall was. Those
spots weren’t caused by wind but are strictly due to the rain that just kept
coming and weighed the plants down.”
Harvest
Overall, all of that means the
state’s rice harvest is behind schedule.
“Mainly, that’s because of the
weather,” says Hardke. “The crop hasn’t dried out, matured and cured out as
fast as it should have because August was ‘flip-flopped.' By that I mean
normally the first two weeks of August along with the last two weeks of July
are the hottest 30 days of the year.
“This year, while it was still
warm, we kind of got a cool down during that period. The last two weeks of
August were the typical low-90s, very hot and humid weather that usually
happens the first two weeks of the month. It worked in reverse.”
A dry spell would do wonders for
morale.
“We’re doing okay but we need a
good run of seven to 10 days of dry weather to really put a dent in harvest. Of
course, now we’ve got more storms brewing and potentially headed our way. (Tropical
Storm) Isaac is supposed to come into the Gulf of Mexico. Will it hit somewhere
that’ll impact the Mid-South?
“With all that’s happening we
really need to make some progress. We’re probably between 30 to 40 percent
harvested.”
Yields and nights
What about yields?
“So far, yields have been very
good and people are happy. This season was one of the grassiest crops most
folks can remember. I kept hearing ‘there’s so much grass this crop isn’t going
to cut that well.’ But I was thinking ‘I don’t know what rice field you’re
talking about because the one I just walked out of looks like it’s going to cut
a bunch of rice. I’m not saying there’s no drag from the grass, but there’s a
lot of rice out here.’”
The rice crop looks to be strong
but don’t expect too much.
“I don’t think it’ll be
record-setting but I wasn’t expecting that anyway with the acreage we have this
year. Setting records is extremely difficult anytime we get over 1.4 million
acres. Once you get to that level, rice starts going onto okay ground but
you’re moving off the prime, high-yield production fields.”
How has Provisia done in this
year’s weedy conditions?
“One thing I can say is I haven’t
had to look at much Provisia rice because it’s done a good job. Extension
specialists usually get to talk about problems. The conversations this year
have usually been me talking to someone about a problem and at the end they’ll
tag on ‘oh, by the way, my Provisia looks good.’
“Folks have also been happy with
the cost of control – not only of weedy rice but barnyardgrass populations
resistant to other modes of action.”
Hardke says this season’s
nighttime temperatures teetered on the razor’s edge.
“For a while, we toed the line on
nighttime temperatures around the 75 degree mark for a low. From there and up
is the zone of concern. We hung around that level in early July and then caught
a break with some rains that took some of the edge off the heat. That was a
great thing for the remainder of our flowering, pollination and grain-fill.“The
overall milling quality numbers I’m hearing so far are very good.”
Asia Rice:
India rates tumble; Vietnam hopes to clinch Philippines deal
SEPTEMBER
13, 2018
BENGALURU (Reuters) - Rice export
prices in India slumped this week as the rupee fell and demand remained weak
with buyers expecting further dips, while low supplies and the prospect of a
new deal with the Philippines pushed up prices for the Vietnamese variety.

In top exporter India, rates for
the 5 percent broken parboiled variety fell by $5 to $371-$375 per tonne this
week, the lowest in 17 months.“Rates are down due to the rupee and weak demand.
Buyers are postponing purchases expecting further falls in prices,” said an
exporter based at Kakinada in the southern state of Andhra Pradesh.
The Indian rupee has fallen 13
percent so far in 2018 and hit a record low on Wednesday, increasing exporters
margins.In Vietnam, however, rates for benchmark 5 percent broken rice rose to
$400-$405 a tonne from $397-$403 last week on tight supplies and rising demand.
“The Philippines is about to
announce a plan to buy an extra 133,000 tonnes, while supplies are running
low,” a Ho Chi Minh City-based trader said.Meanwhile, the World Economic Forum
held in Hanoi from Sept. 11 to 13 saw Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen
encouraging the Mekong region to establish an association of rice exporting
countries.In Thailand, benchmark 5 percent broken rice prices were little
changed at $390-$393 per tonne, free on board (FOB) Bangkok, compared with last
week’s $385-$393 as activity remained slow, traders said.
“There’s so little market
activity lately that traders are just taking naps,” a trader in Bangkok said,
adding that he has tried to convince buyers to make purchases now when the
prices are considered low for the grade.Thailand had exported 7.65 million
tonnes of rice this year up until last Friday, according to the latest commerce
ministry data.Another Bangkok-based trader said he expected demand from the
Philippines and Indonesia to pick up in the coming weeks due to recent natural
disasters in the two countries.
“Prices have been at this level
for a while and shouldn’t go any lower. Prices are actually expected to
increase because of anticipated demand from the Philippines and Indonesia,” the
trader said.
Elsewhere, Bangladesh, which
stepped up its imports last year after floods destroyed its crops, has procured
more than 1.1 million tonnes of rice locally so far to build state reserves,
after output of the grain revived.“We are getting a good response in our local
procurement drive and will continue it,” a food ministry official said.
Ompong's estimated damage to rice, corn could reach
billions: Piñol
ABS-CBN News
MANILA – Agriculture Secretary Manny Piñol on Thursday said the
projected damage of Typhoon Ompong in rice and corn crops alone could amount to
billions of pesos.
During the command conference led by President Rodrigo Duterte,
Piñol said rice could suffer losses amounting to P3.6 billion on a moderate
estimate or up to P7.9 billion in a worst case scenario.
Corn crops could suffer P2.7 billion in losses under moderate
conditions or up to P3.1 billion, he said.
Ompong, expected to make landfall in Cagayan Saturday morning,
could affect a total of 1,220,000 hectares of rice and corn alone, Piñol
said.
Piñol, however, assured the President that despite the typhoon,
there would still be about 85 to 96 days of rice supply left by the end of the
year.
To prepare the farmers, Piñol said they have activated their
operation centers. Farmers were advised to harvest matured crops while trucks
for animal evacuation were also strategically positioned.
Malacañang earlier said Duterte wanted the country to be at its
highest level of readiness for Ompong.
Duterte
plans to buy rice from Sabah
Thursday,
September 13, 2018
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte said he is considering
buying rice from Sabah to address the country's rice supply issues.
"Shortages are always there... The economic life of a
country cannot be all bed of roses. I have several options. The importation did
not stop. If worse comes to worst, I will open Sabah," the President said.
"The rice from Sabah is cheap. If we let the authorities,
those from Basilan, those from Jolo or Zamboanga to buy rice there, they can
get it at a very low price," he added.
Duterte also expressed willingness to set up barter trade in the
area, which is now being administered by Malaysia.
Meanwhile, with the country's rice supply still dwindling,
Duterte is also now in search of a new head for the state-run National Food
Authority (NFA) after his appointee Jason Aquino requested to be relieved.
In a televised interview with Chief Presidential Legal Counsel
Salvador Panelo, Duterte announced that Aquino has requested to be removed
after leading the agency for one year and eight months.
"He says he's tired and he cannot cope with the dynamics
inside, which is always ordinary happening, happening in government because we
cannot be in agreement all the time," Duterte said, referring to the NFA
administrator.Aquino is being blamed for the lack of rice supply in the market,
prompting prices to spike.
Even NFA spokesman Rex Estoperez, who is on leave, has not
responded to queries and clarifications.A source from the NFA, however, said
the announcement from the President was unexpected as Aquino has not mentioned
any plan to resign from his post.
NFA Deputy Administrator Tomas Escare told a recent House
hearing that the grains agency asked the council last October to allow the
importation of one million metric tons of rice.He claimed the Council permitted
the NFA to import rice only last May.
NFA Council member and Trade Undersecretary Ruth Castelo
countered Escare's claim, saying the approval was delayed because of the NFA's
failure to submit information about its inventory. Duterte has claimed that the
Philippines has more than enough supply of rice and expressed readiness to
order the opening of warehouses to prevent hoarding.
Officials have said the government would open stores selling
cheap rice to stabilise prices.
PITC offers to
import 3m bags of rice
PHILIPPINE International Trading Corp., an attached
agency of the Trade Department, proposed to import up to 150,000 metric tons or
3 million bags of rice to augment the current stock of the National Food
Authority.The department is tapping the bulk procurement expertise of PITC, the
country’s premier government-controlled trading corporation, to bring in more
rice through government-to-government procurement.
Trade Undersecretary Ruth Castelo said the agency
would be on standby until the NFA Council cleared the proposal.
Castelo said with PITC’s proven international trading
experience, it could bring rice to the country by December and sell them to
consumers at P27 to P32 per kilo.
She said the DTI’s effort was a part of the
government’s all-out efforts to find concrete solution by tapping various
agencies to extend assistance in bringing down prices of rice.
PITC president and chief executive Dave Almarinez
said the agency was throwing its full support behind the government’s effort,
through DTI, to address the current artificial rice shortage.
Smuggling, hoarding and ‘man-made’ price manipulation
in the rice industry are pinpointed as the main reasons the low-income families
are now facing difficulties in buying affordable rice.
Almarinez said PITC was joining DTI and NFA in
preventing rice hoarders from hurting the economy and lives of millions of
Filipinos.
The subsidized rice―priced at P27 and P32 a kilo
depending on the variant―would be considered a reprieve for poor Filipino
consumers as current prices of commercial rice reached an average all-time high
of P43 a kilo.
The NFA last week approved an additional importation
of 250,000 metric tons of rice this year under an open tender scheme. The
action will bring the agency’s rice imports for the year to 750,000 MT,
including the half a million ton of imports approved earlier this year.
The PITC said that once its proposal was approved, it
would implement strategies to effectively bring down the price of rice.
It said that by flooding the market with imported
rice, hoarders would be left with no option but to release their supply in the
market and eventually stabilize prices.
Cameroon: Rice import spending grew by 27.9% to CFA183.7bn in
2017
Thursday, 13 September 2018 12:07
(Business in Cameroon) - Last year, Cameroon invested CFA183.7
billion to import 728,443 tons of rice, the National Statistics Institute (INS)
said. This reflects an increase by 27.9% in value and 18.6% in volume, compared
to 2016, despite the application of customs duties since January 2016.
“Over the past years, Cameroonian importers have been sourcing
mainly from Thailand as prices per kg were more competitive compared to other
Asian countries,” INS indicated adding that
until then, prices had been almost stable at around $500 per ton. However,
the unit import price increased recently by 7.9% to CFA252.2 per kilogram. Asia
is Cameroon’s main rice supplier (99.8%) and key providers include Thailand
(85%), India (7%) and Myanmar (2%).
Back in 2000, the country imported 552,472 tons of rice for
CFA156.6 billion. During the peak year 2013, rice import stood at 819,841 tons
for CFA212.6 billion, according to INS.
In Cameroon, paddy rice production increased by 12% to 311,674
tons in 2016, upon the continued extension of rainfed rice cultivation and the
distribution of chemical fertilizers. However, much of the local production is
exported.
Tanzania: Rice Importation
Suspended As Local Production Doubles
By Janeth Joseph
Moshi — The government has suspended the importation of rice on
the grounds that the country produced more than it needs in the previous
agricultural season.The permanent secretary in the Ministry of Agriculture, Mr
Mathew Mtigumwe, said here that while the country's annual demand for rice was
900,000 tonnes, local production for this year reached 2.2 million tonnes, that
is, double the demand.
He said the statistics meant that Tanzania had a surplus
production of over 1.3 million tonnes of rice.
"This makes Tanzania among the top five countries in
Sub-Sahara in rice production," said Mr Mtigumwe. The other countries,
according to him, are Nigeria, Madagascar, Mali and Guinea.
Meanwhile, the representative of the Japan International
Cooperation Agency (Jica), Mr Toshio Nagase, whose organization is about to
implement a mega project to increase the productivity, said over 15,000 growers
of rice are expected to benefit, hence uplifting thousands from poverty.
Ms Hadija Hassan, who is a beneficiary of the project, said
their productivity has soared from being able to produce three rice bags to 56
bags per acre.
"Now, our main problem is lack of market," she said."We
ask the government to look on the possibilities of providing us with reliable
markets so that we can continue benefiting from agriculture," she said.
