Pakistan is a country characterised by great
landscape variations from snow-covered northern mountains to irrigated
floodplains of the Indus, vast coastal lands and extremely dry deserts of the
Balochistan Plateau. Since independence in 1947, Pakistan has been struggling
with managing its water resources as more than one-third of the water resources
have origins outside of the country. This has resulted in water-distribution
treaty between India and Pakistan, brokered by the World Bank in 1960, giving control
over waters of the Beas, the Ravi and the Sutlej to India. With rising
population and increasing demand for water, water security has become a major
concern as the per capita annual water availability has dropped from 5,260
cubic metres in 1947 to less than 1,000 cubic metres in 2018. According to some
recent studies, Pakistan is ranked 46th among 48 nations in the
Asia-Pacific region, with only Kiribati and Afghanistan having a lower water
security index. Pakistan is also among the top 10 most climate-vulnerable
countries in the world.
The looming shortages and worsening quality
of water have become serious threats to food, health, energy and job security.
Cities have run out of safe drinking water, agriculture shows lowest crop
yields as crops remain thirsty and vast salinised floodplains below the Kotri
Barrage and drying polluted wetlands like Lake Manchar have become sad
environmental disasters. There is a National Water Policy and a National
Climate Policy but the crisis seems to have become only worse as implementation
road maps and action plans are missing. This situation requires extraordinary
measures since business-as-usual is no longer an option. This article intends
to provide an in-depth analysis of existing data on water availability, water
demands, future water availability scenarios and implementable solutions to
lead Pakistan from a water-scarce to a water-secure country.
The diagnostic analysis shows that for the
last 30 years, the minimum, maximum and average flows in Indus are 67, 112 and
90 million acre feet (MAF) whereas same statistics for the Chenab river are 18,
33 and 26 MAF and for the Jhelum river 12, 32 and 23 MAF. The overall minimum,
maximum and average availability of water from these rivers is 99, 183 and 144
MAF. The effective water available from underground water recharges from rivers
and vast irrigation system is estimated to be around 50 MAF. Key questions are
whether these water resources and rainfall over the irrigated and Barani areas
are enough for consumptive water uses? Is too much water escaping the
productive use below the Kotri Barrage to the ocean? Pakistan’s water storage
capacity from existing large dams like Mangla and Tarbela is less than 14 MAF
and is continuously decreasing due to sedimentation. A key question is whether
an additional 6 to 10 MAF of water from planned dams can make Pakistan water
secure?
A close examination of water flows for the
last 30 years below the Kotri Barrage shows maximum, minimum and average flows
as 92, 0.3 and 27 MAF. There have been many years, eg, from 2002-2003 when
there were no substantial flows downstream the Kotri Barrage which means all
the available water was diverted due to low supplies. Under such future
scenarios will managers be able fill the existing and new dams?
A close study of the water balance of
Pakistan shows water losses from dams to fields and within the farmer fields
from 25 to 50 per cent due to use of flood irrigation and poor system
management. Such losses are too high by international standards. Some of these
losses can be recovered through an extra expense of energy from the groundwater
while others are unrecoverable as they end up in saline unusable groundwater or
evaporate back to the skies.
The storage yield curves of the Indus river
basin show that up to 20 MAF, every additional MAF of storage will yield around
1 MAF of additional water supplies after which available water becomes lesser
and lesser. Given the data of low flow below Kotri, there will be years when
managers will be unable to fill the existing storages. The existing dams and
network of barrages and canals have been able to divert around 105 MAF
successfully. The additional surface storages can store around 10 MAF flows in
the Indus Basin during normal and flood years. During flood years like 2010,
more than 50 MAF of water flowed below the Kotri Barrage. During such years,
there is an option of using these flows to recharge groundwater by diverting
floods to the thirsty landscapes such as Thar.
Cultivation of many of the summer crops grown
in Pakistan, such as rice and sugar, demands highest amounts of water while the
largest winter crop, wheat, a staple food crop, remains under-irrigated. Can
there be options to limit areas of rice and sugar cane and tailor Pakistan’s
cropping patterns to present and future water availability?
Key conclusion from these scenarios is that
there is a need to invest in more dams but additional storage alone will not be
enough to make Pakistan water-secure. Greater gains need to be made for saving
huge water losses equivalent to storage of over five new dams by investment in
proven water efficiency technologies. At the farm level, such technologies can
include use of drones for cropping mapping, water control devices such as smart
valves, laser levelling, cheap drip irrigation, crops on beds, etc to reduce
water losses. There can be leakage hotspot investments to reduce losses from
supply system to saline groundwater and unproductive evaporation in the system.
To improve water availability, one can
recommend rooftop and micro catchment harvesting, artificial recharge of areas
such as Thar with flood waters and storage of water in soils through
conservation measures such as using polymers and other technologies. Given the
trans-boundary nature of water resources with over 30 per cent of water
supplies coming from upper catchments of Jhelum and Chenab rivers across the
borders, there is a need to construct minimum linkage infrastructure, like
linking Indus River below Tarbela with Jhelum River to be able to supply
minimum water needs for strategic water and food security plans.
Where can be the practical entry points for
road to a water-secure Pakistan? The urgent need is to provide safe drinking
water as a basic human right to all citizens of Pakistan. If one uses such an
approach, less than 2 MAF are needed to provide basic water supply to all
Pakistanis. It is recommended to replace hazardous groundwater with surface
water supplies from canals running close to our cities such as Lahore and
Faisalabad and provide desalinised seawater to cities such as Karachi.
Land-based wastewater treatment such as the one being used by the National
University of Science and Technology through a UNESCO project can provide
economical solution to treat waste waters from the cities which is being used
to grow unsafe vegetables in the surroundings of most cities.
Existing water institutions and governance
system has been unable to tackle the water security challenge of Pakistan.
There is a need for a National Water Commission working under the directions of
the National Water Council representing all stakeholders. The water education
and continuous professional development need reforms through international
collaborations. A national research university of water management similar to Hohai
University in China is recommended closely linked with the Ministry of Water
Resources.
In a nutshell, dams and artificial recharge
of aquifers are urgently needed but increased water storage capacity of
Pakistan cannot solve the water security problem alone. There must be a focus
on improved governance, trans-boundary data availability and more extensive
water loss analysis at the urban water supply system and irrigation districts
levels for targeted improvement of water efficiency, availability and water
equity. A sustained 10-year effort is needed for a water-secure Pakistan
including construction of critical water infrastructure (dams and artificial
recharge of aquifers), good governance according to 21stcentury
water management standards, and technology for water resilience and efficiency.
The business as usual is no more an option for Pakistan!

Concentration varies with rice
variety and stage in crop cycle; samples collected from North 24 Parganas
district
A recent publication by researchers at the School of
Environmental Studies (SOES), Jadavpur University, reveals not only rise in
arsenic contamination of paddy plants from ground water in West Bengal, but also that
concentration of ‘arsenic accumulation’ depends on the variety of paddy and its
stage in the crop cycle.
The study titled ‘Arsenic accumulation in paddy plants at
different phases of pre-monsoon cultivation’, published earlier this year in
the peer-reviewed scientific journal Chemosphere, highlights the
processes and dependencies of arsenic trans-location in rice from contaminated
irrigation water.
Samples for the study were taken from the Deganga block in the
State’s North 24 Parganas district, an area that’s worst affected by ground
water arsenic contamination.
The study found that arsenic contamination in paddy was higher
than in previous studies.
The study shows that arsenic uptake in the paddy plant reduces
from root to grain, and that its concentration is related to the variety of the
rice cultivated. The study was carried out on two commonly consumed rice
varieties — Minikit and Jaya — and the latter was found to be more resistant to
arsenic.
“The highest concentration was observed in the initial or
vegetative state in the first 28 days. It reduced during the reproductive stage
(29-56 days) and again increased in the ripening stage,” Tarit Roychowdhury,
Director, SOES, and corresponding author of the publication told The
Hindu.
Professor Roychowdhury said the uptake of arsenic is faster in
young roots in a vegetative state than in older tissues with a higher
concentrations of iron in root soil in the reproductive phase.
The authors have also raised concerns over the disposal of the
contaminated rice straw which is used as animal fodder or burnt or sometimes
left in the field itself to serve as fertiliser.
DOF optimistic on rice tariff passage to lower inflation
July 29, 2018, 10:00 PM
By Chino S. Leyco
The Department of Finance (DOF)
is optimistic that Congress will adhere to President Rodrigo R. Duterte’s
appeal to pass the rice tarrification bill as soon as possible to ease the
increases in consumer prices and bring down costs of Filipinos’ stable food.
Finance Secretary Carlos G. Dominguez III
In a statement, Finance Secretary
Carlos G. Dominguez III said that the proposed liberalization of rice imports
will bring down the prices of rice by as much as P7 per kilo that would
ultimately slowdown than the country’s inflation rate.
Dominguez said liberalizing rice
imports through the passage into law of the rice tariffication bill now pending
in the Congress is vital in helping low-income households cope with inflation,
given that rice accounts for 20 percent of their consumption.
“Along with a national ID system,
the passage of the rice tariffication bill will complement the social
mitigation measures we are implementing now to further ease the impact of
inflation on poor households,” Dominguez said.
The House of Representatives
appropriations committee has already approved the funding provision for the
consolidated version of its rice tariffication bill.
The counterpart version of the
bill in the Senate is still being discussed at the committee level.
Based on estimates by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), allowing cheap
rice imports with tariffs will immediately lower the inflation rate by 0.4
percentage points.
In his third State of the Nation
Address (SONA), the President said rice tariffication was among the long-term
solutions that the government is working on to lower inflation, provide farmers
with additional resources and reduce rice prices by up to P7 a kilo.
“We need to switch from the
current quota system in importing rice to a tariff system where rice can be
imported more freely,” the President said in his July 23 SONA. “I ask Congress
to prioritize this crucial reform, which I have certified as urgent today.”
Agriculture
Secretary Emmanuel Piñol on Thursday said lifting the quantitative restrictions
(QR) on rice imports and imposing tariffs would stabilize prices and assured
farmers they would become “very competitive” as long as the tariff would be
invested in local farms.
“If every
year, we will get P10 billion [from the tariff revenues] for the rice industry
because of the lifting of the restrictions we can give free seeds to the
farmers,” Piñol said in Lingayen, Pangasinan during an inspection of damage
caused by flooding to farms.
“We can even
subsidize fertilizers and we will be able to achieve our target,” he said during
a dialog in the town with rice and vegetable farmers.
Duterte
order
In his State
of the Nation Address (Sona) on Monday, President Rodrigo Duterte asked
Congress to amend Republic Act No. 8178, or the Agricultural Tariffication Act,
which imposes a rice import quota.
Tariffs, or
taxes, are levied on imported goods “to restrict trade and protect the domestic
producers by making imported goods more expensive,” according to the National
Economic and Development Authority (Neda).
Quantitative
restrictions limit the amount or volume of goods that enter the local market,
Neda said, adding that this would “protect local producers by limiting the
availability of imported goods.”
RA 8178
exempted imported rice from tariffs in 1996, after the World Trade Organization
(WTO) allowed the country to maintain its QR on rice. WTO enforces global free
trade.
But Neda has
been advocating for the lifting of QR to quell rising inflation and to follow
free trade rules.
Costly
production
Asked to
react on the claim of an agriculture group that rice tariffs would lead to
higher prices, Piñol said rice prices have been high because the farmers’
average production is only about 4 metric tons (MT) for every hectare and their
average production cost for every kilogram of palay is P12.
“But if we
can support them with good seeds, with fertilizers, they could double their
harvest,” he said.
“If they
[achieve that], the cost of production will be cut in half to P6,” he said.
Mr. Duterte,
in his Sona, warned traders and cartels against manipulating rice prices,
telling them “you know that I know who you are.”
He said those behind the price manipulation
face economic sabotage cases for causing prices to escalate despite sufficient
supply. —Gabriel Cardinoza
Wanted: A new rice industry road map after lifting of
quantitative restrictions
July 28, 2018, 10:00 PM
Dr. Emil Q. Javier
The lifting of rice import
restrictions will open up our domestic rice market to cheap imported rice from
Vietnam and Thailand. According to the simulation conducted by Roehlano Briones
and Lovely Ann Tolin of the Philippine Institute of Development Studies (PIDS),
the retail price of rice will drop by as much as P6.97 per kilogram. This was
in 2015 when rice was retailing at P32 per kilogram. With the retail price now
at P42 per kilogram, the cost savings for consumers should be much more. The
relief will be most welcome especially among the poor and can only lead to
massive importations.
On the other hand, the farm gate
price of palay will go down by as much as P4.56 per kilogram. With a national
average yield of 4,000 kilograms per hectare, this translates to a decline of
income of P18,240 per hectare to the average rice farmer. Thus, the rice
farmers who cannot compete with the imported rice will have to get out of the
rice business in order to survive.
These are huge game changers which
we cannot just brush aside. It cannot be business as usual. We need a new rice
industry road map!
The first order of business is a
paradigm shift from rice self-sufficiency to raising farmers’ income as the
primary objective. These objectives are related but not the same and require
different approaches. Rice self-sufficiency while physically attainable, does
not address the larger more pervasive problem of poverty in the countryside.
Better that we divert the not-so productive rice areas into other higher value
crops (crop diversification and multiple cropping). We will produce less rice
but the additional gross value added from these other crops will more than make
up for the rice shortfall.
Five complementary strategies in the
new rice industry road map
Following are five complementary
strategies upon which we can build the future of our rice sector:
•Further intensification of rice
culture in the more productive, irrigated areas;
•Diversion of the less productive
rainfed lowland and upland rice areas away from rice into other higher value
crops;
•Reform of the National Food
Authority (NFA) to limit its mandate to maintaining our strategic grain
reserves, and to rice distribution during emergencies;
•Shift to decoupled payments as
direct subsidies to farmers for a limited period to give them time to adjust to
market liberalization (and avoid the problem-ridden other forms of subsidies),
and
•Promotion of brown rice and corn
grits to moderate demand for polished rice, and for improved nutrition and
better public health.
Further intensification of rice
culture in irrigated areas
Our cost of producing palay is
P13 per kilogram. We have to bring it down to P8 – P9 per kilogram in order to
compete with imports. This can be achieved by: 1) raising yields to six tons
per hectare, and 2) reducing labor costs by mechanization. The average yield of
six tons per hectare can be readily attained by using improved INBRED VARIETIES
with irrigation and with proper fertilization. Even better with rice hybrids,
whose yields can reach 10 tons per hectare.
We should therefore direct our
efforts to further increasing the productivity of the 1.5 million hectares
under irrigation (out of potential irrigable area of 3.0 million hectares). The
cropping intensity of the national (NIS) and communal (CIS) irrigation systems
is only 1.57. Small irrigation units (water pumps, shallow tube wells, small
farm reservoirs) should be embedded in the NIS and CIS irrigation systems to
attain the target cropping intensity of 2.00 (i.e. two crops per year on the
same piece of land).
We should continue investing in
the National Irrigation Administration (NIA) to develop the remaining 1.5
million hectares of irrigable farm lands for the long term. But, tactically,
for the next four years, we should devote more resources to rehabilitation of
run-down irrigation systems, maintenance and installation of small irrigation
units.
The components of this strategy
are: 1) widespread use of certified inbred seeds and hybrids, 2) fertilization
at the recommended rate of about 150 kilograms nutrients per hectare, 3)
supplemental irrigation, 4) integrated pest management (IPM) 5) adoption of
direct seeding, and 6) more widespread mechanization with tractors,
transplanters, and grain combines to reduce labor costs.
Diversion of rainfed lowland and
upland rice areas into other
higher value crops
Yields of rainfed lowland and
upland rice fields are often low and erratic for lack of water. Better that
these land be diverted into other higher value crops like vegetables, fruits,
legumes and even ornamentals and herbal crops. By installing proper drainage
systems and small irrigation units these hitherto not-so-productive but
otherwise arable farm lands can be multi-cropped with and/or planted to
permanent fruit trees, coffee, cacao, rubber, hybrid coconuts, etc.
Provided markets are assured for
these other crops, these diversified farms may turn out to be more profitable
than double-cropped irrigated rice farms.
The supporting activities
required are: 1) development of high yielding, high quality varieties and
hybrids, 2) on-farm location-specific field trials, 3) bagsakans and domestic
and export market linkages, and 4) village-level processing hubs.
Reform of the NFA
NFA has three mandates: 1)
moderating price of rice for consumers, 2) protecting income of rice farmers,
and 3) maintaining the country’s strategic grain reserves. With open imports of
cheap rice, NFA can now be relieved of the function of bringing down the price
of rice. On the other hand, the task of raising productivity and increasing
incomes of farmers is the collective responsibility of the many agencies of the
Department of Agriculture (BPI BAI, BSWM, PCA, PhilRice, PhilMech, FIDA,
Carabao Center, NDA).
The remaining justification for
NFA is maintaining our strategic reserves of cereals in case of global collapse
of grain supplies and wide fluctuation of prices. And secondarily, for
emergency distribution of food after typhoons and other calamities. NFA should
therefore be programmatically attached to the Department of Social Welfare and
Development (DSWD).
Shift to decoupled payments in lieu
of other subsidies
Depressed farm gate of palay has
immediate impact on the incomes and welfare of rice farmers. But the first two
strategies of: 1) rice culture intensification and 2) crop diversification will
take years to successfully install and their benefits felt.
The rice farmers need help NOW to
adjust to the new market regime. The conventional approaches of market support,
government procurement, fertilizer and seed subsidies and, provision of farm
equipment are costly, wasteful and prone to corruption (i.e. over pricing,
ghost deliveries, ghost farmers).
We have been doing these for
years with dismal results. The benefits had not been accruing to the farmers
but to the other players in the supply chain.
Better that the actual rice
tillers receive cash directly and for them to invest the money in their farms
and in other sources of livelihood, or for consumption as they see fit. For
transparency and more facile implementation, the payments need not be linked
with levels of production and benchmark prices (decoupled) which are moving
targets. Individual farmer payments can be based on hectarage as reflected in
land titles and tax declarations. However, the farmers should be weaned away
from the payments after a maximum of say ten years. The payments to the rice
farmers will be sourced from rice tariffs which are projected to amount to P27
– P28 billion per year by 2022.
Promotion of brown rice, corn
grits and root crops
The promotion of brown rice and
corn grits will effectively reduce the demand for polished rice. The milling
recovery of brown rice is 10% higher than white polished rice. Should all
Filipinos eat brown rice, the net supply of rice will increase by 10%, erasing
our perennial rice deficit.
Many Filipinos in the Visayas and Mindanao prefer corn grits over rice.
However, supply of white corn had gone down as many white corn farmers switched
to genetically modified yellow corn hybrids which are much more productive and
more profitable to grow. Our corn breeders should develop high yielding white
endosperm corn hybrids to match the productivity and profitability of yellow
corn hybrids to encourage farmers to return to white corn production.
Brown rice and corn grits have
more protein, vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber than white polished rice.
Corn grits have a lower glycemic index, good for managing diabetes which is
emerging as a serious public health concern. The NFA may be enlisted to promote
brown rice and corn grits in their operation, not only to help manage the
demand for rice but as importantly for improved nutrition and better public
health.
Sweet potato and cassava are also
suitable substitutes for rice. Cassava is the preferred staple of some communities
in Muslim Mindanao. There should be a dedicated cassava program for these
communities.

Surtax on wheat flour will affect bakery
products: AIBOA
2018-07-28 16:42:39
The prices of all bakery products will soar if the government
increased the tax on wheat flour, the All Island Bakery Owners' Association
(AIBOA) said.Speaking to Daily Mirror, AIBOA President N.K. Jayawardana said
Agriculture Minister Mahinda Amaraweera had told a recent media briefing that
if there were a surplus of paddy production, it was essential to impose a tax
on wheat flour to protect local farmers.“There is no such surplus in the
country. About 60 per cent of people consume food made of wheat flour.
Everything cannot be made out of rice flour. If there were an excess of stocks,
there is no need of rice importation. The first thing the government should do
is stopping rice imports. This government and the previous regime imported
large stocks of rice. New varieties of rice were imported. However, if the
government decides to increase the tax on wheat flour, there will be a definite
price hike in all bakery items,” he said. (Chaturanga Samarawickrama)
The
Bureau of Customs seized some P25 million worth of smuggled rice in a raid of a
warehouse in Calamba, Laguna.Customs Commissioner Isidro Lapeña said that more
than 10,000 sacks of rice imported from Thailand and Vietnam were found in a
warehouse in J.P. Rizal Street, Calamba, Laguna.
“The
BOC-Enforcement and Security Service conducted a surveillance to validate the
presence of the alleged smuggled rice. Upon confirmation of the presence of
rice, I immediately issued a letter of authority to inspect and visit the said
warehouse,” Lapeña said.
The
smuggled rice is consigned to the Marcelo Rice Trading while the warehouse is
owned by a certain Henry Uy and Jason Feng.
The
warehouse owner and the consignee were not on the premises during the raid. ESS
agents found the company accountant, identified as Janice Peng. “No documents
were presented to show evidence of payment of duties and taxes and the
corresponding import permit,” the BoC chief said.“The interested party is given
15 days to prove or show the source of the goods and the payment of duties and
taxes. If they fail to do so, the goods will be seized and subjected to
forfeiture proceedings,” he said.
Lapeña
said the National Food Authority did not issue import permit to Marcelo Rice
Trading.
“Despite
the need to address the rice shortage in the country, it is also our mandate to
protect the interest of the government and the people especially our own rice
farmers. “I will not let these smugglers and their protectors manipulate the
prices of rice and let the Filipino people be at a disadvantage. Our President
Duterte is already rallying for the rice tariffication bill so our importers
will be given much more freedom to import the staple food of the country,”
Lapena said.
The
rice tariffication bill seeks to remove quantitative restrictions on the
importation of rice.
TRUE to his stance against
abusive rice traders, President Rodrigo Duterte chastised an importer for
hoarding imported rice.This was disclosed by Senate President Vicente “Tito”
Sotto III who said that he was with Duterte in a meeting when the President
called and berated the businessman on the telephone.“Nakaharap ako nung
pagmumurahin ni Presidente yung isang importer, naku pag narinig mo yung mura
talagang kikilabutan ka,” said Sotto in an interview on DWIZ radio.
Sotto said that Senator Gringo
Honasan can attest to the truth of his story because he was also with them
during that meeting. After giving the trader a mouthful, the President
gave a 72 hour ultimatum to the importer to release his hoarded rice.“Pinatawagan
n’ya kay Commissioner (Isidro) Lapena tapos inabot sa kanya telepono nagalit
siya (Pangulong Duterte), sabi n’ya pag hindi lumabas ang mga bigas dyan parang
ganun,” narrated Sotto.
He added that they couldn’t help
but laugh when the President asked the importer where he lives. “Natawa ako sa
sinabi n’ya san ka ba nakatira? Nagtawanan kami ni (Sen. Honasan) Gringo nung
sinabi nya,” Sotto added.Because of the call, Sotto said that the rice hoard
was released to the market .Sotto shared the story as part of his reaction to
the negative sentiments of the public about the Tax Reform for Acceleration and
Inclusion (TRAIN) Law due to the high prices of commodities which was partly
caused by unscrupulous businessmen.
MABALACAT CITY -- The Bantay Bigas advocacy group has asked
President Rodrigo Duterte to prosecute rice smugglers after P25-million worth
of rice was seized in a warehouse in Calamba, Laguna Friday.
The Bureau of Customs found a total of 10,000 sacks of rice illegally imported
from Thailand, Vietnam and China which were about to be repacked and
distributed to Oriental Mindoro, Nueva Ecija, Isabela and Palawan.
“President Duterte’s resolve to put an end to rice hoarders, cartels and their
protectors will now be tested,” Bantay Bigas spokesperson Cathy Estavillo said.
“Duterte should prove his words during his last State of the Nation Address
(SONA) and take legal actions against the rice smugglers,” she said.
Bantay Bigas said that the country’s dependence on rice importation only
strengthens the operation of rice cartels and smuggling in the country.
Estavillo said that this is already the third time that smuggled rice were
seized and yet no one is held accountable for the crime.
“It is easier for smuggled rice to enter the country with a liberalized
importation policy as smugglers take advantage of the arrival of rice imports.
We expect rice smuggling to worsen if rice tariffication will push through.
Under tariffication, more private traders are allowed to import resulting to
the flooding of imported rice and making the monitoring of rice imports more
difficult,” Estavillo added.
She said that smuggling remains a threat to the local rice industry because it
robs off the country from tariff collections and destroys the livelihood of
rice farmers as well as local millers and small traders.
According to the research group IBON Foundation, an average of 2.44 million MT
smuggled rice entered the country from 2011 to 2014. In 2013, 548, 656 hectares
were affected due to smuggling or 12 percent of the area planted with rice with
P8 to P10 billion foregone tariff revenues.
The Bantay Bigas reiterated that the government should prioritize the
development and strengthen the local rice industry to put an end to smuggling.
Outsiders
are usually puzzled about why India and Pakistan cannot be friends. From their
perspective the two nations are not just vaguely similar but alike. That is to
say, not different like Spain and Portugal or Germany and France, where there
is a long history of separation and a distinct culture and a separate language.
India and Pakistan have no such division in history before 1947, because there
is no natural barrier between them. And though one can argue that Pakistanis
have a very different culture from Indians, this is not noticeable, at least
immediately, to the outsider. The food
tastes the same — heavily flavoured with masala and with a base of rice or
roti. The way the people look is quite similar — it is not easy to tell the
Lahori woman apart from the Delhiwalli or the Karachi man from the one in Uttar
Pradesh or Bihar. The south and the east of India are different, but then those
differences exist inside India as well. The
music is, of course, also quite similar. To outsiders, the distinction of some
specific ingredients and meat used (actually most of the food that Pakistanis
eat is like ours, right from meat to dal, vegetables and grain) is not that
significant. And that puzzles them as to over why such hostility exists.

I am
almost 50, and I have no hope at all of seeing friendly relations between the
two nations. I am not being pessimistic, merely realistic. It has not happened
in the entire period of my adulthood. When I was about to turn 20, the Kashmir
dispute became violent at our end and it has remained like that now even after
30 years since then. But then even before that relations with Pakistan were
neither good nor normal. In the 1980s, the same charge we make against them now
(abetting terrorism) was made then though this time it was about attack on a an
army camp in Punjab. I cannot
quite remember personally what the 1970s were like in terms of India-Pakistan
relations, but I do know from reading that one of the things that happened
after the 1965 war was that the easy travel and trade through the Punjab border
ended and so did the screening of movies. Though the later was reversed 15
years ago during now-in-exile Pervez Musharraf’s presidency, it was done only
at their end. We still do not screen Pakistani movies or show their channels. The
1971-72 war permanently closed the India-Pakistan border and ended the free
exchange, and I think that moment, almost as far back in years as I am (I was
born in 1969), has been carried forward to today. Only a
few thousand Indians alive have ever seen Pakistan and vice versa. This is
because of the extremely difficult process to get a visa. Even those who get a
visa are given a ‘police reporting’ visa, meaning that the visitor has to spend
many hours registering themselves after arriving and then unregistering before
departing. One fallout of this lack of ability to travel is that everything
that we know about them, we know through second hand information, and through a
filter of fairly emotional propaganda. This has
kept the psychological division alive. We are not at war but we are never at
peace. I am not
sure what both the nations have gained in keeping the borders rigid. Pakistan
has lost contact with its ethnic and cultural kin, as we have, but it has also
lost out on things like Indian tourists. I know many who would spend a lot of
money to visit the Indus river or Taxila or Gandhara. And this is not including
those, such as Punjabis and Sindhis, who have roots there. Indians would have
no problem adjusting to anything in Pakistan, and they would behave in the same
way as the locals, modestly and without any high expectations like other
foreigners. India on
the other hand has lost a large market for its products, many of which,
especially on the side of things like automobiles, are often superior and
almost always cheaper than what is available to Pakistanis. It may be easy to
dismiss Pakistan — a nation of 20 crore people — as being another Uttar
Pradesh. But we must remember that it has a large elite and its own fairly
robust economy that India could tap into. I
recognise that the fear of terrorism is one reason that both nations keep the
others’ citizens out. Since the mid 1990s, India has insisted that the visa
regime should be as tight as possible so as to keep us safe. But terror has not
ended in India and its patterns have been determined by other, larger, events. On the other
side, I have always insisted to Pakistanis that at least they should let
Indians in without much formality. However, the arrest and conviction of an
Indian in recent years on the charge of spying has meant that Pakistan has
followed the same logic as India. Today,
it is difficult even for me, someone who has visited Pakistan a half dozen
times, to get a visa easily. The
election of a fresh new face, cricketer playboy Imran Khan, has produced
speculation that relations between Pakistan and India will improve. No, they
will not. Many fresh faces have come before him on both sides, and every sort
of individual — liberal, conservative, hardliner, dictator — has come and gone.
It is not that the right personality has been missing to take that big step, or
that on either side people have not recognised that there are benefits in not
being in a state of permanent hostility. I think
Indians and Pakistanis just seem to be happier when they hate one another.

Bangladesh has
set a new record for opening letters of credit or LCs for imports.In the first 11 months of fiscal
2017-18, $64.4 billion of LCs was opened, up 48.25 percent year-on-year,
according to the latest data from Bangladesh Bank. During the period, the LC
openings surged due to the higher import orders for food grains, petroleum and
capital machinery, said an official of the central bank.The jump in LC openings
for the payment of imports has not been seen before.
“There's nothing to worry about,”
said Ahsan H Mansur, executive director of the Policy Research Institute.Necessary
equipment imports for the ongoing mega projects have abnormally increased LC
openings, he said.From July through May in the last fiscal year, import orders
for rice soared 2,110 percent, wheat 35 percent, onion 90 percent and fuel oil
49.57 percent.The BB figures show the actual import of capital machinery or
industrial equipment used for production increased by 28.75 percent during the
period.
Orders for equipment for the Rooppur power plant were the main
reason behind the soaring LC openings, Mansur told bdnews24.com,
responding to a question on why import was rising.
In addition, LC openings have
also surged due to the imports of equipment for other mega projects, such as
Padma bridge and metro rail, he said.Higher imports of rice, fuel oil, capital
machinery and industry raw materials have added to import costs, he added.On
its economic impact, the economist said: "The rising import is seen as a
positive sign for the economy. Increasing import orders for the raw materials
and the capital machinery mean rising investment.”
"Some products were imported
under cover of other products. Often empty containers arrive. People make money
through over-invoicing,” Mansur said."That's why I’m a bit anxious
too."The higher import payment may put pressure on the country's foreign
exchange reserves, said Mansur."We were in a comfortable position for a
long time. The reserves had risen to almost $34 billion. But higher imports
will cut into the reserves,” he said."If export earnings and remittances
had increased there would not have been any problem. But remittance and export
earnings are increasing at a slower pace.”

VARIOUS farmers associations from Bago City, Himamaylan and
Silay received farm machinery worth P890,000 in a turnover ceremony in Barangay
Tabunan in Bago City yesterday.
Acting Governor Eugenio Jose Lacson together with Board Member Victor Javellana
and Provincial Agriculturist Japhet Masculino turned over three hand tractors
worth P130,000 each and five threshers worth P100,000 each to various farmer
groups.
Those who received hand tractors were farmers from Mambagaton Cluster Farmers
Association, Mailum Organic Farmers Association, and Gen. Malvar ARB Irrigators
Association while threshers were distributed to Newton Camingawan Para Farmers
Association, Mambagaton Farmers Association, Palay Farmers Association, Hda.
Lolita Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries Association and Mercedes Farmers
Irrigators Association.
Lacson expressed his gratitude to the Department of Agriculture for the
machinery and encouraged the farmers to make use of the blessings they received
from the government.
Moreover, Masculino said the farm equipment is part of the Rice Program of the
Department of Agriculture Region 6.(PR)
Argungu Fishing Festival used to be a major tourist destination
and a source for revenue to the state; why was it suspended? Argungu Fishing Festival was suspended in 2010/2011, when Boko
Haram insurgency made it almost impossible to have the confidence.
So, the then government thought it was important to suspend it until things get
better.
But since last year we have got back the confidence particularly in this area.
We are already working with the ministry of information and we are trying as
much to avoid the rainy season.
There is also an infrastructure issue like accommodations which have virtually
decayed.
But we are also working hard to ensure that accommodation is available and
trying as much to make the event as international as possible so that it can
attract the widest audience.
Kebbi, Lagos partnership on Lake Rice brand It is quite a splendid programme for the nation at large because
what Governor Ambode and I did as a result of this partnership was to go the
most enlightened market, which is Lagos market and say ‘here is a Nigerian
product promoted by two state governments supported by President Buhari.
Test it and see how it measures up to the competition with particularly the
imported rice’.
Fortunately, a lot of people commend it saying yes this is better than the
imported rice.
You know, the Lagos market defines the mood of the nation when it comes to
national produce and by confirming that the local rice is better than the
imported rice it supported the program.
Indeed, Governor Ambode and the Lagos state government in 2016 went to the
extent of subsidising the price of the rice so that people can afford it and
that has significantly affected the price of rice, because prior to Christmas
in 2016, rice in some places was about 21,000 per bag, but last year it came
down to 13,000 – 14,000.
The federal government also intervened in order to deliver more rice to the
market.
Just recently, I had a meeting in Lagos with the millers and the rice traders
association to hear their experience and they all confessed that Nigerian rice
is better than imported rice.
We talked about how to make a better supply chain to ensure that it is
available all the time.
On the issue of Anchor Borrowers loans The agro-borrowers programme is one designed by the Central
Bank of Nigeria and approved by President Muhammadu Buhari across the 36 states
of the federation and the FCT can have access to loans based on the models
created.
So, for rice, Kebbi state, for example, we were chosen as a pilot model
involving 70,000 farmers and because of that we gained a lot of experience.
Registration was an issue because there was no service in some places to
register farmers.
Some farmers were patient, sometimes they turn up at the registration centers
for three days.
When we started the pilot program, we realised that most input were not
available.
For example, you want to give 70 farmers six bags of fertiliser each and we
need about 420, 000 bags of fertiliser and as at then the fertiliser available
in the market was less than 200, 000 which was a huge challenge.
Ideally, every farmer needs two water pumps and we have 70,000 farmers which
were about 140, 000 water pumps.
That was the period when water pump’s price jumped from N17, 000 to N32, 000
and that was when we had fuel challenges where rather than N87, 000, fuel
prices were N280, 000.
So, all this affected the model, but the key objective of the model is to
increase production of the Nigerian rice and it was achieved beyond imagination
that it contributed to the exit of Nigeria from recession in a short span of
time.
The second objective was to create employment and it did.
It popularised the belief and energised everyone that we can do this.
Defaulters, and government’s efforts to encourage the CBN Yes! When you are dealing with 70,000 farmers; there are bound to
be defaulters, but just like we have been arguing, farmers are business men and
this is one of the things we want you to help popularise.
If the farmers face repayment issues just like the company faces occasionally.
What is important is that you should be able to continue.
It is not unusual.
N54 billion is the money made available for the anchorborrowers and we thank
President Buhari and the CBN, but it is very little money compared to what is
given into other sectors.
For example, when the Assets Management Company of Nigeria was created in 2010,
what was it created to do? It was created to take over bank loans from the
commercial system.
N4 trillion bank loans were taken and it was not agriculture related.
It was oil and gas, it was share certificate; it was land certificate.
So, spending of N54 billion has resulted in the magic we are seeing in terms of
food production.
I think it is a bigger story than the repayment challenges that will occasion
in any program like this.
I want to use this medium to appeal to journalists to call for grater lending
to agriculture and greater public support to agriculture.
For example, NNPC indicated that the first two months of this year, fuel
subsidy alone is about N180 billion, but our lending to borrowers under
agro-borrowers program for two and a half years is just N54 billion.
So, we need massive investment in agriculture as countries that have achieved
food sufficiency for decades support agriculture, subsidise, and provide
different producer supports.
That is what we should do and then farmers should be encouraged to pay, though
occasionally some of them might have challenges.
What is important is for financial system to treat them like it will treat
other borrowers.
Work with them with concern in order for them to reach their obligations.
Have many hectares are being cultivated in Kebbi? We don’t have the total hectare because under the anchor-borrowers
programme too, there are different companies.
There are private anchor companies like the Wacot, Labana, Umza and Olam.
These companies have farmers they are working with.
We know the number of farmers and we know the hectarage of these farmers.
Then there is a state government anchor with the CBN.
The pilot scheme was N70, 000 and now close to 150, 000 farmers are in the
scheme.
For that model, it is one hectare per farmer.
So, there you have about 150, 000 farmers just for the state anchor and for the
private anchor, it is between 70, 000 to 80, 000 farmers.
These are farmers in the anchor borrowers program.
I believe there a lot of farmers that are not yet in the programme, so we
believe no less than 400, 000 hectares are being used for rice cultivation. Last
year, about 1 million metric tonnes of rice were produced in the state. What is
your target this year? There are three cropping
seasons in Kebbi.
Two dry seasons and one wet season and farmers produce rice in three cropping
seasons.
Now, both people in the anchor borrowers and the ones outside the programme
have about 400, 000 hectares under cultivation and if we take the average
yield, for those under the anchor borrowers, there are about five to six tonnes
minimum per hectare.
There we have about N1.2 million.
For the rest of the farmers not under the anchor borrowers, since they have
less yield and we explained that it is about three tonnes.
Now, this year we are talking about N1.8 million tonnes.
How much does rice farming generate for the state? Rice farming contribution to the revenue of the state is
very little because our objective is to make our farmers wealthy.
When they become wealthy, the burden on the state is less.
They will be able to afford education and health care for themselves.
So, that is how we measure financial achievement of the state and most
importantly it has built better relationship between states in Nigeria; for
example, that of Lagos and Kebbi.
We give Nigerians the inspiration that with cooperation we can do a lot of
things for our country.
Not surprisingly, Kano joined us in signing an agreement with Lagos.
We are proud that we are the pace setters in this cooperation.
Like I told you the first objective of the program is to give the confidence
that Nigeria can do it and I think in terms of measuring value, you are in a
better position to measure it.
Rice grows in the 36 states of the federation, including the FCT so everyone
can do better.
I have visited many states like Anambra and we have seen new means come up.
We have seen new products being launched everywhere from Sokoto, Zamfara,
Jigawa, Katsina, Kano, Ebonyi, cross-rivers, Ogun, Imo and of course Lagos
because of the partnership.
Just before Christmas last year, confluence rice was launched in Kogi, Nugmuns
rice was launched in Ogun, and Imo International was launched in Owerri to join
other famous brands like Labana, Umza and Wacot products.
I think that is our first measure of success that it has led to a reduction of
importation of rice by ninety per cent.
It is an energised investment because you must notice that even when Nigeria
was experiencing depression, companies were investing in rice milling which is
a big success story.
Kebbi farmers’ challenges and government’s intervention Well, Kebbi state is one of the most difficult places to produce
rice because the water levels are below the farmlands.
As you can see, most of our farmers use irrigation method.
In some states, they use gravity, that is, they don’t use water or oil before
their foods ripe.
Our farmers are always buying petroleum and sometimes it is not available at
the market.
In some places, they have been buying fuel for close to N300.
However, what we have done as a state government is to make arrangements with
some petrol stations to dedicate their outlets to farmers during the dry season
and the state government will take care of the loss.We have met with the state
house of assembly and we are going to make it a law because, already, we learn
that some farmers have even started abandoning their farms due to this
unprecedented cost.
More so, we want to build a dam and
we wish the federal government can support us in its standardisation because it
is capital intensive and we don’t have the financial resources to do
channelisation now but we are working with the federal government and they are
very active in exploring ways that will support. We also are trying various
technologies, people have brought solar panels to this place and we are
measuring its efficiency so that farmers don’t have trouble with watering their
produce.
These are all work in progress.I am sure we will find a lasting solution to
these challenges.
Provision of farm implements and other incentives A lot of rice processing is
done by women in this country and we are very particular we don’t want those
women to lose their jobs so we have brought machineries to give women
processors.I don’t know who among you have been to Abakaliki rice.Most of the
work there is done by women so part of what we are calling is that this
revolution should also make women richer and therefore more machinery
investment so that women processors are not removed out of the market as their
work doesn’t affect the quality and we are doing some of that in Kebbi.
On out-of-school children Now, the problem for us is hydraheaded.We have
borders with two countries, Niger and Benin Republic. A lot of these children
come from across Nigeria either for Qur’anic education or for economic related
activities.That compounds the problem for Kebbi because we can’t plan for them
all.
Secondly, Kebbi state in the North-east has the highest number of internally
displaced persons.
Because a lot of farming and fishing activities around Lake Chad is done by
Kebbi state people and on coming back, they brought families along who needed
shelter and support and because sometimes their stays are temporary, it becomes
very difficult to plan for more class rooms.
The measurement of children who are out of school excludes those that are in
Islamiyya schools because they are receiving an education and they are
literate.It’s just that the nature of delivery is different from that of the
formal education.

speaker. (Photo: Executive Mansion)
By William Q. Harmon and Robin
Dopoe, Jr.
It is often said that a nation
and people who do not learn from their history are bound to repeat mistakes of
the past, and most times these have deadly consequences. It is against this
backdrop that the government of the Coalition for Democratic Change (CDC) is
endeavoring to put an end to what it considers the “Reign of Imported Rice as a
Political Commodity.”
According Finance Minister Samuel
Tweah, who served as this year’s 171st National Independence Day Orator,
the issue of rice being a hotly discussed political topic in the country must
be addressed. “We must put an end to the importation of rice in this country,”
he declared.
Rice, which is the country’s
staple food, has an infamous history in Liberia as it is the very commodity
which contributed to the civil unrest that overwhelmed the entire country for
decades, leading to the death of over 250,000 Liberians and the destruction of
the nation’s infrastructure.
It all started in 1979, when then
President William R. Tolbert, Jr., attempted to increase the price of imported
rice to protect domestic rice production, Tweah narrated.Politicians, according
to him, used this to incite a demonstration, accusing the Tolbert regime of
increasing the price on imported rice so that his private domestic rice venture
could profit from the increase.
Minister Tweah further argued
that, “Granted this was true, had this been possible, the Liberian economy
would have benefited. The capacity to grow rice domestically would have been
resident with Liberians and the monies generated from this production would
have supported the domestic economy.”
What Minister Tweah did not mention
was that Daniel Tolbert, brother of President Tolbert, was a major importer of
rice, giving the two brothers checkmate power over the commodity such that,
either way, one of them benefited handsomely.
Minister Tweah believed what has
emerged from the April 14, 1979, episode is the enthronement of imported rice
as some kind of “political commodity,” whose procurement is largely in the
hands of non-Liberians, because governments in the past have tended not to
trust Liberian entrepreneurs to import the commodity.
He noted that the CDC Government
must debunk the myth that imported rice is a political commodity by moving
swiftly to scaling up investment in domestic rice and food production.
According to Minister Tweah, the
government should work with key stakeholders in the private sector and
development partners to achieve this outcome because it makes both
macroeconomic and food security sense.
“To make Liberia a food secured
nation remains one of the biggest ambitions of the government’s Pro-poor Agenda
for prosperity and development,” Mr. Tweah said.
“Today, we import about 26
million bags of rice every year at the cost of about US$110 million. Assuming a
population of four million rice-eating Liberians, this amounts to more than six
bags of rice per person per year,” he told his audience, comprising diplomats
and development partners.
“We can grow this rice in
Liberia. According to the experts, we have more than 600,000 hectares of land
conducive for rice production. Studies show that with the right investment and
the development of a rice value chain, we can achieve food security over the
next six years. This is one of the biggest ambitions of the Pro-poor Agenda to
develop the country,” he said.
To achieve this goal, Tweah noted
that it will require Liberians to begin shifting their diet toward home-grown
food and their preference for locally manufactured products.He indicated that
the government intends to partner with the private sector and development
partners to develop agriculture value chains across the major food crops in
Liberia – rice, cassava, vegetables, plantain etc.
Prior to the 1940s, rice
importation was banned in Liberia, “so we do know Liberians have not always
depended on imported rice,” he said.“Once the means of transformative domestic
production are assured, and the domestic market becomes competitive, the
optimal policy would be to raise the tariff on imported rice to protect the
domestic rice markets,” Minister Tweah added.Under such a policy, he said, rice
importers would have the incentive to invest in domestic rice production,
leading to the ultimate solution of the politics of rice in the country.
Minister Tweah assured Liberians
that the government is committed to helping local agro-entrepreneurs to improve
their production.He said government, in the next several weeks, will launch its
Pro-poor Agenda for prosperity and development plan into which all stakeholders
are currently making their final input.
“This agenda provides the roadmap
for addressing Liberia’s long term economic problems. It will bring all actors
in the Liberian economy together to address the problem of value addition and
expansion of the private sector,” he said.
No problem bigger than corruption
As of yesterday, President Weah
and lieutenants had yet to declare their assets, which would have been the
first test of ensuring transparency and accountability in the new
administration, in spite of Minister Tweah’s assurance that the CDC government
will intensify the fight against corruption.“Corruption has been a root cause
of the conflicts that have run through our history. This generation of
Liberians and this new government must renew its pledge to fight and end
corruption,” he said.
The first step toward this goal,
he noted, is to abolish the culture of impunity that has surrounded the misuse
of public funds. “This means we have to give more teeth and meaning to
anti-corruption institutions. These institutions are the watchdogs that ensure
we spend public resources for the benefit of all Liberians,” he said.
He said President Weah has
promised that under his leadership, those who misuse public funds will have no
place in his government. “Such persons must face the full weight of the law.
This is certainly reassuring to all our countrymen and our development partners
who provide important resources for our national development.”

Rice particularly sensitive to
high nighttime temperatures
Research project seeks tolerant
rice cultivars
STUTTGART — The heat of the day
is tough on crops, but it’s the heat of the night that keeps Arkansas rice
growers worried. By Sarah Cato.
Arkansas has experienced several
weeks of hot, dry weather and that’s growing concern among rice producers, said
Jarrod Hardke, rice agronomist for the University of Arkansas System Division
of Agriculture.
“If we don’t see more rain soon,
we will absolutely see growers who run out of water and are not able to
maintain enough moisture to maximize yield,” Hardke said. “We’re running
through that at a very rapid pace.”
Rice has also been a victim of
the warm temperatures. However, it’s not the beating sun that’s doing damage to
the rice, but rather the hours of the day that rice depends on to be cooler.
“The biggest point is not
actually the daytime temperatures,” Hardke said, “but the nighttime temperatures
that don’t allow the plants to adequately cool themselves.”
Rice seeds are mostly
composed of starch. When nighttime temperatures rise during seed filling
development, chalk occurs. Chalk is loosely packed starch granules and the air
space between them.
Eshan Shakiba, assistant
professor – rice breeding and genetics for the University of Arkansas System
Division of Agriculture and one of the primary investigators of this study,
said these high night time temperatures lead to chalky rice. Chalky rice grains
are problematic in two ways. They’re opaque and consumers prefer their rice
grains to be translucent and chalky rice tends to be brittle, breaking during
processing.
“Rice quality is so important. If
the rice is not of good quality, it goes nowhere,” Shakiba said. “In 2010 we
saw that a rise in nighttime temperatures leads to higher amounts of chalk.”
Shakiba said it was this
discovery that sparked a project that began in 2017.
Rice can now be grown in drought, high temperatures, thanks to
this new technique

Rice cultivation requires an abundance of water. On an average,
it takes 4,000 - 5,000 litres of water to produce one kg of rice in India. The
consumption may vary as per the soil type, region, environment and other
factors. According to global standards, it takes 2,500 litres of water per
kilogram of rice produced.
WHAT SPOILS THE RICE CROP?
According to scientists, almost half of the global rice crop
derives from rain-fed agricultural systems where drought and high temperatures
are predicted to become more frequent and damaging under climate change.

Koval kavuni was developed by crossing the
traditional Kavuni with the widely consumed CO 50 vareity of white rice
COIMBATORE: Clinical trials on the
effectiveness of Kovai Kavuni variety of rice
on diabetic patients is likely to begin by the end of 2019. The effectiveness
of the rice — developed by the scientists at the Tamil Nadu Agriculture
University (TNAU) here two years ago — in ensuring the consumer’s blood sugar
does not shoot up is yet to be scientifically tested.
The rice is being tested by the University of California to study the
bioavailability of nutrients, TNAU scientists told TOI. “The new rice variety
does seem to have many nutrients, but we have to find out how much of those
nutrients are available for absorption by the human body. The second phase of
the research is on,” Biotechnology professor at TNAU M Raveendran said.

Even a so called-nutritious food’s nutrition content will go off in roughage
and not get absorbed for multiple reasons, Raveendran said. “During the
research phase, the rice was found to contain phenols that inhibit the enzymes
that breakdown starch, so the glucose
release process is delayed. It also contains anthocyanin that fights stress and
carotenoids, which strengthens the muscles in the eyes,” he said.
Once the university’s results come through, clinical trials are likely to begin
next year. “Once the bioavailability studies are completed hopefully early next
year, we plan to approach the department of biotechnology, which funded the
study, to connect us to hospitals, where we can conduct clinical trials. Though
we have done lab studies, its efficiency in human body is unknown,” said
Raveendran.
The rice will be fed to a group of diabetic patients and the results will be
compared to a group of patients being fed the usual white rice. “The health
parameters of the patients will be tested and details of the product’s glycemic
index and glycemic load will be studied. We are also going to recommend feeding
the rice to normal individuals for two to three months and assessing their
health status because the rice’s micronutrients are also expected to help in
cognitive development.”
On the other hand, fields trials of Kovai Kavuni are going on in TNAU. “We are
constantly breeding to see if the new variety is beating all the challenges
faced by the original Kavuni, which is its excess height, photosensitivity and
low yield,” Raveendran added.
