‘Happy Seeders’ to help tackle
smog
December 04, 2017
IN 2014, a multicrop zero tillage planter for rice and
several zero tillage ‘Happy Seeder’ machines were imported from India under the
Agricultural Innovation Programme (AIP).These machines were tested on farmers’
fields in five districts of the province by experts from the Punjab Agriculture
Research and Extension Department, Engro Fertilisers and machinery
manufacturers.It was found that the seeders helped farmers to plant wheat and
apply fertiliser in one operation in combine-harvested, unploughed fields,
without burning rice residue. The technology also helped farmers manage
standing as well as loose rice residue without burning.
Moreover, farmers attained an additional 200kg wheat on
a hectare and reduced 70 per cent cost of cultivation in comparison to
traditional practice.So, after successful tests, the International Maize and
Wheat Improvement Centre (CIMMYT) worked with private machinery makers the
following year to help them manufacture the first locally-modified versions of
both seeding implements.
A zero tillage seed drill manufacturer of Faisalabad
modified the Happy Seeder to help farmers sow wheat directly into heavy rice
residue fields and thus avoid burning the residues and decrease greenhouse gas
emissions.Under the AIP project — led by the CIMMYT and supported by the United
States Agency for International Development (USAID) — the seeders were
manufactured and sold to farmers in 2016-17 on a cost-sharing basis.
In
the rice-wheat area of the province, more than 80pc rice fields are combine-harvested
that leaves large amounts of residues, whose burning by farmers during October
and November aggravate the smog issue
The widespread residue burning in Pakistan and India
during October and November is one of the factors that aggravate the smog issue
in Punjab. Other major contributing factors of smog or air pollution in the
region include dust, smoke emission from bricks kilns, factories and vehicles.
Farmers and research partners are satisfied with the
locally manufactured seeders that support conservation agriculture, cut costs
and avoid rice residue burning in rice-wheat farming rotation that cover more
than 1.7m hectares in Punjab.
In the rice-wheat area of Punjab, more than 80pc rice
fields are combine-harvested that leaves large amounts of residues on the
field.
After rice harvest, farmers typically burn residues,
generating large noxious clouds, and drive tractor-drawn ploughs over fields
repeatedly to prepare seedbed. They then sow wheat through broadcast seeding, a
method that involves scattering seed, either by hand or through machines, over
a large area.
Burning rice residues not only results in loss of
nutrients but also increases greenhouse gas emissions. According to a study,
burning a tonne of straw releases 3kg particulate matter, 60kg carbon monoxide,
1460kg carbon dioxide, 199kg ash and 2kg sulphur dioxide in the air.
Since the 1990s, public research programmes in South
Asia have been working with the CIMMYT and advanced research institutes to test
and promote a slew of innovative practices, including reduced or zero tillage,
which allow rice-wheat farmers to save money, better steward soil and water
resources, cut greenhouse gas emissions and stop the burning of crop residues.
Meanwhile, wheat sowing campaign in the country briskly
is progressing. Conditions at the beginning of the Rabi season were not
encouraging for wheat crop. Less or no rains during September and October
delayed in some places and affected wheat sowing operations in rain-fed
(barani) areas. However, rainfall in November infused a new life in the sowing
season.
According to the Pakistan Meteorological Department
forecast, 10pc to 15pc less rains are expected during October-December as
compared to the normal level of this period, which may affect wheat production,
particularly in the rain-fed areas.
Similarly, the country has to face a shortage of
irrigation water during the current Rabi season because of less storage in dams
owing to about 25pc less monsoon rains from July to September.
The Federal Committee on Agriculture has fixed this
year’s wheat target at 26.46m tonnes on an area of 8.95m hectares, compared to
25.75m tonnes and 9.05m hectares a year ago.
The government intends to increase per-acre crop yields
of wheat and promote the area of sowing of oilseed crops. However, drought
conditions coupled with shortage of irrigation water will be key obstacles to
achieving the target.
Considering 9m hectares area with a seed rate of 120kg
per hectare, wheat sown will be around 1m tonnes during the current Rabi season,
according to CIMMYT’s Country Director Dr Muhammad Imtiaz.
In Punjab, two kinds of wheat varieties have been
introduced during the current season under the USAID-funded programme. The
recommended seeds are Barani-17 and Anaaj-17 for Punjab and Khaista-17, Wadan,
Pasina, Nifa-Aman and Kohat-17 for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
According to the CIMMYT, new wheat varieties and
quality seeds amounting to 130 tonnes were distributed through a network of
national partners to stallholders, including women beneficiaries.
Under the AIP, the CIMMYT has provided seed and
trainings to more than 27,000 wheat growers across Pakistan. Another 5,000
wheat growers will be reached out during the current Rabi season.

NFA expects rice prices to stabilize as
imports seen to start coming in
Philippine Daily Inquirer / 05:39 AM December 02,
2017
State-run National Food Authority (NFA)
said rice prices were expected to settle down to its previous levels as imports
were expected to start coming in before Christmas.
The NFA was quick to clarify that the
increase in rice prices at this time was due to the high farm-gate prices of
paddy and not due to lack of supply.
“We have adequate volume of industry-wide
rice inventories at this time. The country’s rice stocks, at 1.944 million
metric tons (MT), would last for 61 days based on the average national daily
requirement of 31,462 MT,” the agency said.
ADVERTISEMENT
“Traders are now milling and starting to
sell their newly harvested stocks bought at higher ex-farm prices,” the NFA
said. “This harvest season, for example, traders were buying palay from P18 to
P24 per kilogram. Thus, when processed into rice, the higher wholesale and
retail prices will be passed on to retailers and consumers.”
For the last three years, rice prices
started registering increases in the middle of the third quarter. Moreover, the
main harvest that started in late September is almost over and the lean months,
or the period when there is very low or no harvest, are now looming.
For this year, the NFA said the price
increase was observed to be relatively lower than in previous years.
The average retail prices of regular and
well-milled rice varieties this month were recorded at P37 and P40 per
kilogram, respectively.
“We continue to sell low-priced NFA rice at
P27 and P32 per kilogram through our accredited retailers so that consumers
will have an option to buy good quality but lower-priced rice,” the agency
said.
The NFA added that it had fielded
monitoring teams in supermarkets to ensure that NFA rice was available in
places where price increases were noted.

Special
cooking methods to make better multigrain rice and tenderize cheap beef cuts
Updated: 2017-12-04 12:00:21 KST
More and more Koreans are choosing multigrain rice over the nation's
traditional staple, white rice, as their main source of carbs.The Korea Rural
Economic Institute reports that as of 2016 Korea's per capita rice consumption
had fallen sharply to 61.9 kilograms a year, down from 128.1 kilograms in 1985.Sales
of grains like barley, beans, and quinoa meanwhile have doubled since the last
decade and continue to increase.
Multigrain rice didn't go mainstream overnight.Health experts have consistently
warned that white rice can raise the risk of diabetes. Westernized eating
patterns have also contributed to the decline of white rice consumption.
To make multigrain rice more enjoyable and approachable for beginners,…
researchers at the Rural Development Administration have a suggestion -- they
say the trick is alcohol.
Cooking the rice in nine parts water and one part Korean rice wine soju brings
down the boiling temperature and lengthens the cooking time.
That makes the rice fluffier and smoother.
(KOREAN)
"The overall texture and taste were better when the alcohol was
used."
The researchers added that the alcohol prevents rice from causing a spike in
blood sugar when consumed by bringing down its glycemic index.
(KOREAN)
"Once the water is heated, the alcohol penetrates the grains and weakens
the structure."
A second cooking tip the team showcased is a special aging method for cheap
beef cuts.
Researchers said the aging method can make unpopular cuts like chuck rolls and
rounds more tender.
(KOREAN)
"During aging, meat is contained in a special pack to retain its moisture
for certain amount of time."
The researchers aim to complete the development of twenty four different
meat-aging methods depending on what part of cow the meat comes from.
Each method has a different duration and temperature.
The complete set of recipes will be publicized so that people can try it for
themselves.

Scientists develop more robust
crops
3rd
December 2017
Scientists
hope to bioengineer crops that can grow in harsh conditions
by unlocking the secrets of drought-resistant plants.
In
America, a team at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National
Laboratory (ORNL) has pinpointed genes that facilitate the
survival of plants like Kalanchoë, orchid and pineapple, in
‘semi-arid conditions’
Through
a type of photosynthesis called crassulacean acid metabolism process
– or CAM – plants close their pores in daytime and open them to take in carbon
dioxide at night.
“CAM is
a proven mechanism for increasing water-use efficiency in plants,” said Xiaohan
Yang, from ORNL. “As we reveal the building blocks that make up CAM
photosynthesis, we will be able to bioengineer the metabolic processes of
water-heavy crops such as rice, wheat, soybeans and poplar to accelerate their
adaptation to water-limited environments.”
The
findings, published in Nature Communications, follow
another breakthrough by scientists in Japan, earlier this year, who pioneered a strain of
drought resistant rice.
Both
important discoveries in offering solutions to the challenges of feeding a
growing population, at a time of mounting climate change pressures.
Tabada: Golden grain
Saturday, December 02, 2017 By MAYETTE Q. TABADA MATAMATA
STREETS
of gold. On a recent journey to the north of Luzon, I saw the local practice of
drying rice on the highway. Even outside the urban centers, Luzon is blessed
with superhighways. In Dagupan and Cabanatuan, half of the highways and even
narrow feeder roads are covered by rice being dried. These grain gardens are
swept and raked into rows occupying half of the road. Set off by endless rice
fields in brilliant quilts of green, the streaming grains, poured by workers
into sacks, are redolent of abundance. For drivers, though, the practice of
drying rice on highways is a nuisance. Vehicles are forced to share the
remaining lanes in a highway ironically expanded to decongest traffic. The
Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has advised farmers and rice
traders not to dry their produce on national roads, particularly the McArthur
Highway or the Manila North Road, widened and improved to improve access to the
Ilocos Region; the Cagayan Valley Road going to Nueva Ecija, Nueva Vizcaya and
Isabela; and the Manila South Road or Daang Maharlika leading to Bicol.
Obstructions placed to prevent vehicles from driving over the drying “palay”
pose a threat to road safety, pointed out the DPWH. Yet, the practice endures.
Local culture, particularly the influence of local elites, dictates what
constitutes as unbreakable custom. In more ways than one, Luzon’s thoroughfares
of grains are truly “Daang Maharlika (high by birth, rank or title).” It’s not
only the DPWH that’s against the practice of rice-drying on roads. In a 2011
online post, the Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) of the
Department of Agriculture published its “Panatang Maka-palay (“Save Rice, Save
Lives” pledge).” First vow on the list: “I will discourage and avoid drying
‘palay’ on busy roads and highways as this will reduce the quality of the
grains.” The rest of the RICEponsibility campaign is relevant, specially in the
approaching holidays, when many Filipinos bond through feasting. Order rice in
half-portions or bring home what cannot be consumed. I remember a catered lunch
when two cups of rice were served per participant. A colleague took home the
extra rice for her pet cats. Another PhilRice advice is to recycle cooked rice.
Garlic or fried rice for breakfast tastes better when leftover rice is used
rather than newly cooked rice. The PhilRice also promotes more nutritious rice
substitutes, such as corn, sweet potatoes, “gabi,” cassava, and banana. Root
crops have lower glycemic index (GI), representing less risk for heart disease
or type 2 diabetes. When I put rice on my plate, do I see and value each grain?

First, the good news. Last
Friday’s Manila Bulletin editorial (“Record rice harvest seen this year”)
showed a thumbs-upping Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel Piñol because our fourth
quarter yield surpasses previous years – thanks to hybrid seeds from
International Rice Research Institute in Los Baños and the Philippine Rice
Research Institute in Nueva Ecija, farm mechanization, and a program of free
irrigation.The overall productivity champion is Nueva Ecija, which is the only
all-year round green province and produced more than twice the national average
yield of 4.38 tons per hectare. Prime mover of its success is OcaViolago, who
had the gumption to bring Warren Buffet’s company (California Energy
International) to build the Casecnan dam during the term of President Fidel V.
Ramos.

“There is a tide in the affairs
of men.Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune” (Brutus, Julius
Cesar).That time is upon us, at 4 p.m. tomorrow at the Smart Araneta Dome, the
moment of truth when the reigning champions De La Salle Green Archersclash with
the Ateneo Blue Eaglesfor the UAAP basketball cup, just as their fathers did
before them in the NCAA.
At the first part of the regular
UAAP 80thseason, the Ateneo squeaked past De La Salle, 76-75; in their
second-round meeting, the Green Archers brought down the Blue Eagles, 79-76.
In the Best-of-Three Championship
Games, the Ateneo took Game 1, 76-70; but De La Salle lived to fight another
day by swamping the Ateneo 92-83 in Game 2 last Wednesday.
The announcer said that the
deciding third game is on Sunday, adding that De La Salle kept unblemished its
undefeated record at the Smart-Araneta Astrodome. By that, he suggested
subliminally that the onus now bears on the Ateneo to break out of that jinx.
***
If you were there at the
beginning of last Wednesday’s best-of-3, you wouldn’t believe how it ended the
way it did. The sea of blues at the Smart-Araneta Dome was delirious in the
early part as the Ateneo executed coach Tab Baldwin’s flawless plays. Thirdy
Ravena played his best and Anton Asistio rained in four treys. With 2:16 left
of the second quarter, the lead swelled to 21 points, 49-28. Ateneans were
beside themselves with joy as if there was no tomorrow.
But coach Ato Ayo told his wards
na hindi pa tapos ang boksing. First, Ben Mbala slam-dunked a split-second pass
to rouse his team… then another dunk as he found his monster stride. La Salle
converted two more steals…and in a short spell, the lead was shaved down to 11.
Surprisingly, Ateneo didn’t call time-out to check the run. La Salle scored
again in the final seconds and the first half ended with the now thinned Ateneo
spread, 51-42.
Same story in the second half.
The bleachers reverberated on both sides. Go La Salle! vs. One Big Fight!. The
Green Gallery came alive, out-shouting the Blue stands. (Where was the famous
Ateneo fighting spirit? The players cannot do it alone…) Blue Eagle Aaron Black
had one of his finest game, but the Green Archers were on a roll. At tomorrow’s
deciding games, Senator Dick Gordon and Gary Lising should get off their butts
and lead the senior citizen alumni at Fabilioh!
***
No Quarters. The deciding finals
third game promises another blockbuster. (“What is good for Smart-Araneta Dome
is good for the economy.”) Tickets still available. But if you want the good
seats, you may have to cough up scalpers’ price.
Both master tacticians Tab
Baldwin and Ato Ayo couldn’t sleep a wink working and re-working their set
plays. Only one team will take the season 80 UAAP trophy. The otherone will eat
humble pie and wait for UAAP 81.
My fearless forecast for
tomorrow’s finals: The first school hymn to play at the end will be humming
strikingly close to the O Canada national anthem. Or I eat my hat.

Customs Seizes 3,309 Bags Of Foreign Rice
From Smugglers In Katsina
The Nigeria Customs Service,
Federal Operations Unit, Zone B said it had seized no fewer than 3,309 bags of
foreign rice from smugglers in November 2017.
Its Comptroller, Alhaji Usman Dakingari, disclosed this on Friday in Katsina while briefing newsmen on the activities of the unit.
Dakingari said the unit also seized 209 cartons of spaghetti, 181 bags of sugar and 461 jerry cans of vegetable oil.
He said other items seized included 79 cartons of mosquito coil, 157 bales of second-hand clothes and six vehicles pointing out that all the seized items have Duty Paid Value of N652.9 million.
He said the items were seized from smugglers in Katsina and other states under the jurisdiction of the unit during the period under review.
Dakingari said: “We will continue to ensure that foreign rice and other prohibited commodities are not smuggled into the country.”
Dakingari also expressed concern over the attitude of some people at border communities that engaged in the illegal smuggling activities as means of their livelihood.
He said: “If you tell them that smuggling is bad they will tell you that what business you want them to do or this is something they have inherited.”
He, therefore, stressed the need for other stakeholders to intensify efforts toward enlightening the border communities on the dangers associated with smuggling on the nation’s economy and health of the people

It is shameful for Ghana to
import Food - MP
The Member of the Committee on the Food and Agriculture Committee of Parliament wondered why Ghana that experiences favorable rainfall for crop production, would import from a country like Burkina Faso with an unfavorable rainfall.
According to him, Burkina Faso used irrigation as a strong tool for farming and that has paid off for them.
‘’It is shameful for Ghana to be importing tomatoes, onions from a desert. This is happening because we lack expertise, resources and skills in the agric sector. Irrigation is expensive but when you do it, you will generate more revenue.
It is also shameful for us to import rice when we have rice in this country. The way we even process the rice in this country is also a challenge we need to address.’’
Ghana currently spends about US$600m annually to import rice. The country spends an additional US$400m annually to import sugar, tomatoes, vegetable cooking oil, frozen fish, poultry and wheat.
Former President John Dramani, as part of efforts to reduce importation of rice said his administration was targeting a reduction in the US$1b imports of food by developing the local capacity to produce more of them.
President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has also indicated that his administration will reduce the importation of food into the country following the launch of the One-District One-Warehouse initiative at Ejura in the Ashanti Region.
President Akufo-Addo revealed that the objective of the Warehouse initiative was to increase production of staples like maize by 30 per cent, rice by 25 per cent, sorghum by 28 per cent and soya bean by 25 per cent.
The programme forms part of the larger component of government’s Infrastructure for Poverty Eradication Programme (IPEP).
According to the President, the government will ensure the warehouses are equipped with modern equipment including drying and freezing systems.
The warehouse program will see to the construction of a 1000 metric tonnes capacity warehouse in each of the 216 districts across the country.
Ghana continues to import large quantities of food despite the
vast arable lands available

How food-secure is Malaysia?

A
EARLIER this year, agriculture minister Ahmad Shabery Cheek said
that he was proud of Malaysia’s 35th ranking on the 2016 Economist Intelligence
Unit’s (EIU) Global Food Security Index (GFSI).
According to the minister, Malaysia’s ranking is comparable with
other agriculturally advanced countries such as Thailand because Malaysia
is capable of producing our own food and this
protects our national food security.
However, when the GFSI 2017 was released a few months later,
Malaysia’s ranking dropped to 41 out of 113 countries. More
worryingly, Malaysia’s GFSI score fell by 3.2 points, from 69.4 in 2016 to 66.2
in 2017, which puts us among the top 10 countries with the highest drop in our
GFSI scores.
GFSI measures food security in terms of affordability,
availability, food quality and security. Countries which do not produce much of
the food they consume do not necessarily score badly in this index. Singapore,
for example, is ranked 4th in this index because it has managed
to secure a stable and secure supply of food from various sources around the
world.
On the other hand, developing countries plagued by natural
disasters, such as Haiti (ranked 107th), and those experiencing civil wars such
as Syria (ranked 99th) and Yemen (ranked 108th) are at the other end of this
food security spectrum.
Whenever a country experiences a noticeable drop in its GFSI
score and ranking, the country’s government and policy makers have to sit up
and take notice. Venezuela’s large drop in its GFSI score is due to bad
economic management, hyperinflation and difficulty in procuring imported food.
Qatar’s GFSI ranking fell from 2016 to 2017 because of worries
over diplomatic feuding with its neighbours that could threaten its food
imports.
In the case of Malaysia, our fall in the GFSI score and ranking
is largely due to a deterioration in the index’s ‘availability’ score, which
measures factors such as the sufficiency of supply, public expenditure on
agricultural R&D, agricultural infrastructure, volatility of agricultural
production, political stability risk, corruption, urban absorption capacity and
food loss.
The largest drops in Malaysia’s score were in the sub-categories
of ‘sufficiency of supply’ (-24.0), ‘urban absorption capacity’ – a measure of
how new information and technologies are commercialised to improve productivity
(-11.3) – and political stability risk (-2.3).
What are some of the key drivers pulling down Malaysia’s score
in terms of food supply? A local research study found that one of the challenges
in development of the domestic agro- food industry is limited land resources,
idle land and shortages in the workforce. Agricultural land is also being
converted to industrial, commercial and residential as part of the pressures of
economic development.
The move to convert usage of agriculture land from food
crops to more lucrative commodities such as palm oil is also one of the driving
factors pulling down Malaysia’s food production.
The ageing agricultural workforce and the increase in foreign
worker dependency can also be one the root causes in declining food productivity. In Malaysia, there are
646.4 thousand foreign workers in the agro industry and 60% of the current workforce
is over 60 years old.
The younger generation sees the agro industry as one which is
low paying and very limited in terms of career development. Although
technological improvements may help in reducing labour dependency in this
sector, the decrease in the number of local agricultural workers (and the rapid
aging of the existing workforce) is still one of the biggest challenges in the
food production industry in Malaysia.
Reversing the trend
Firstly, urban farming has largely been neglected by the government
as part of the national agro-food policy. This is a waste since there are many
unutilised areas in the cities which can be used for urban farming including
riverside banks and the land under the TNB pylons. The government should
consider providing subsidies, assistance and incentives that are similar to
the Cantas Discount Scheme to encourage urban
farming.
At the same time, proper guidelines on the size of land, type of
land/space that are available for farming and a user
agreement with the owner of sites (public or private) should be
established for the abovementioned areas in the city such as riverside banks
and TNB reserve land.
The role of smallholders, farmers and fishermen in food
security, also need to be enhanced. A key report by the Food and Agriculture
Organization (FAO) found that smallholder farmers need
better access to more profitable markets to escape from food
insecurity.
Hence, encouraging more farmers to participate in mini estates
and group farming activities can be a way to increase their profit and
productivity. Setting up a special programme that targets poor farmers and
fishermen with the primary aim of upgrading their equipment can help to
increase their income and productivity too.
We also need to attract more attract more people from the
younger generation to go into the agricultural industry including encouraging
urban-rural migration. The government has already established certain mechanisms for this: a good example
would be the MYAGROSIS programme, launched in 2011 as a partnership between the
MOA and MOHE with an allocation of RM30 million.
The purpose of this programme is to change the perspective of
students on the agroindustry and to attract them to enter this sector. However,
awareness of this programme remains relatively low. More effort needs to be
expended in promoting this program and/or starting new programmes to reach out
to the younger generation including young graduates.
Finally, monopolies on food import licenses should be abolished
so that more players can participate in the international market in order to
diversify the sources of our food imports. The most well-known example of this
is in the importation of rice which is largely controlled by Padiberas Nasional
Berhad (BERNAS), a paddy trading company that currently controls a monopoly of
the rice import business. As the sole license holder to import rice from
overseas, BERNAS has the power to set prices to maximise profits for its shareholders,
while neglecting interests of farmers, bumiputera rice millers and the rice
industry at large.
Malaysians tend to take for granted that there will always be a
steady supply of nasi lemak and roti canai at our local mamak. But if our food
security situation continues to deteriorate, the ease of access to foods we
enjoy may not be guaranteed for much longer. – December 3, 2017.

Rice Science Museum teaches youth
about agri
By Marilyn Galang, Philippine News Agency on December 1,
2017
SCIENCE CITY OF MUNOZ , Nueva
Ecija — The Rice Science Museum of the Philippine Rice Research Institute
(PhilRice) has opened a new exhibit that attempts to engage the youth to become
agriculture advocates.
Dr. Diadem Gonzales-Esmero,
museum curator, said in an interview Friday that through the exhibit, the youth
can experience scientists’ workplay through puzzles, learn about rice growing,
and listen to stories that can motivate them to finish their food, especially
rice.
Esmero also said that children
can familiarize themselves with biodiversity and the interaction among
vegetables, rice, and insects in the field.
“We have 30 million young people.
Contrast that to the aging population of farmers, which averages at 55 years
old. For this exhibit, we are educating the children about their role on
ensuring food security,” she said.
Although the ongoing exhibit,
which opened last week, is more focused on the children, the general audience,
especially the farmers, will not feel alienated, according to Esmero.
“They will learn about the
healthy forms of rice and climate change-ready rice varieties. We also have a
corner where they can read and watch about the latest practices and
technologies on rice production,” she said.
Titled “Wonderful World of Rice”,
this fifth exhibit also showcases rice arts and artifacts to promote the
culture and heritage of rice farming.
Previous exhibits featured rice
farming history focusing on Ifugao collections; traditional and modern rice
farming practices; colored rice varieties; the colorful Pahiyas Festival in
Lucban, Quezon; and the social and technological history of rice. (PNA)

Farmers urged to shift to climate
change-ready rice varieties
Philippine Daily Inquirer / 05:38 AM December 02,
2017
The Philippine Rice Research Institute
(PhilRice) has developed 14 climate change-ready varieties of rice that could
help farmers withstand extreme weather conditions in the country, according to
a multiawarded scientist.
Roel Suralta, who heads the Crop
Biotechnology Center of the Department of Agriculture, said these varieties
were also 35 percent more productive than today’s high-yielding varieties.
The Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA)
puts the average at between 3 to 4 tons per hectare.

“Biotechnology helps improve rice yield.
Through biotechnology, varieties are developed in five to seven years.
Conventional breeding takes 10 to 12 years,” Suralta said.
“Promoting these varieties is one of the
things that we can do to help the farmers,” he added.
Earlier this month, La Niña watch has been
declared by the Agricultural Market Information System, which is marked by
heavier-than-usual rainfall.
With the climate and the weather swinging
from one extreme to another, the agency is advising farmers to go for
high-technology seeds, especially those that are flood-resistant.
PhilRice’s varieties include the Submarino
1, which can survive after submergence in flood water for two weeks. Other
varieties are Tubigan 7, the country’s first product of marker-aided selection;
and Tubigan 3, which is the agency’s first variety developed through anther
culture.
These varieties can withstand drought,
flash flood and salinity, according to PhilRice.
Data from the PSA showed that the crop
subsector of agriculture had always been dependent of weather conditions.
Despite the use of hybrid seeds, rice output is often affected by typhoons,
especially during the third quarter.
For this year’s Global Climate Risk Index,
the Philippines ranked fifth in the most vulnerable countries to climate
change, just below Honduras, Myanmar, Haiti and Nicaragua.
It reported that from 1996 to 2005, the
country suffered $2761-million loss from 11,000 weather events during the given
period.
“The Philippines is recurrently affected by
catastrophes and continuously rank among the most affected countries both in
the long term index and in the index for the respective year for the last six

The Nigeria Customs Service,
Federal Operations Unit, Zone B, Katsina State has said that it seized no fewer
than 3,309 bags of foreign rice from smugglers in November.
Comptroller, NCS, Katsina,
Alhaji Usman Dakingari, while making the disclosure on Friday in Katsina, the
capital, said that the unit also seized 209 cartons of spaghetti, 181 bags of
sugar and 461 jerrycans of vegetable oil.
According to him, other items
seized include 79 cartons of mosquito coils, 157 bales of second-hand clothes
and six vehicles, adding that all seized items had a combine Duty Paid Value of
N652.9m.
Dakingari revealed that the
items were seized from smugglers in Katsina and other states under the
jurisdiction of the unit during the period under review, News Agency of Nigeria
reports.
He said, “We will continue to
ensure that foreign rice and other prohibited commodities are not smuggled into
the country.”
While expressing dismay at the
attitude of most residents of border communities engaged in the illicit
business of smuggling, Dakingari said, “If you told them that smuggling was
bad, they would ask you what business you wanted them to do if they stopped it
because, for them, it is something they inherited.”
He stressed the need for
stakeholders to intensify efforts towards enlightening residents of border
communities on the dangers of smuggling and its consequences on the nation’s
economy and health of the people
PhilRice urges public to ‘Be
RICEponsible'
December 2, 2017
SAN MATEO, Isabela, December 1 (PIA) -- The Philippine
Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) based in this province has called on the
public to be riceponsible or consume only the right amount of rice to avoid
wastage.
The call was made during the launching of two programs of
PhilRice which include the riceponsible advocacy campaign as part of the Rice
Awareness Month and the introduction of the Business Innovation System
community project.
Maritha Manubay, science research specialist, said Philrice is
doing its maximum research activities to increase the yield of rice farmers but
if the usage of rice in the table of the family end up into wastage, the
researches in maximizing the yields will be useless.
Manubay said the people should only cook rice that are only
enough for the family to avoid wastage, thus, helping the country achieve rice
self-sufficiency.
She said that the “Be RICEponsible” is a campaign that aims to
encourage farmers, policy-makers, and the public to be RICEponsible in their
own ways.
“This is for them to improve themselves or families while aiding
in the betterment of the rice industry in the Philippines,” Manubay
added. (ALM/MGE/PIA-2/Isabela)

Adarsh said, “Food grains
including rice, wheat and others are easily susceptible to worm infestation,
due to uncertain climatic conditions or storage debris with inappropriate
facilities. When a survey was conducted among 100 people, 75 percent knew the
traditional way of preserving food grains but they did not practise it. Atleast
95 percent shop keepers complained that the food grains get infested in just a

leads to even illnesses. But the traditional way of conserving food grains is
promising and safe. These herbs can be packed and inserted in boxes and
are even edible,” he said.

“We are now growing chickpeas and we can harvest in three months,” said Thanchaung from west Bukyune village.
“A bushel of chickpeas in the market is K3,000. Villagers in the neighbouring villages are now growing various kinds of beans such as mung beans, chickpeas and peanuts. Some are growing mixed crops with beans and vegetables to cover the cultivating.”Farmers said their costs are higher these days and it is hard to hire workers in the winter cultivating season. As a result, there is less profit for the farmers.
