USA Rice and FECARROZ Look to Collaborate on Trade By Asiha Grigsby PUNTA CANA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC -- Last week, USA Rice hosted a dinner for USA Rice members and the FECARROZ (Central American Rice Federation) board of directors and members, with the objective of strengthening business relationships and discussing opportunities for collaboration. More than 40 rice industry leaders from Central America, the Dominican Republic, and the United States attended. FECARROZ President Eduardo Rojas and Sarah Moran, USA Rice vice president international, offered words of welcome and gratitude for the breadth of industry participation at the event.Ryan Carwell with Poinsett Rice & Grain in Jonesboro, Arkansas, who attended the dinner, said, "Any opportunity we can create to bring together leaders and stakeholders of the Latin American and United States rice industries to improve trade relations across borders is a big win for both sides." "To echo the sentiment of President Eduardo Rojas, it is very important to know the people behind the products that are exchanged," said Moran. "Events like these facilitate an inviting atmosphere for establishing and maintaining relationships. The evening was a step in the right direction for a healthy partnership between USA Rice and FECARROZ, and we look forward to
working closely with them in the future."
The countries of CAFTA-DR (Central America & Dominican Republic Free Trade Agreement) are the second largest export market for U.S. rice, importing more than 500,000 MT, valued at $170 million in 2017.
WASDE Report Released WASHINGTON, DC -- U.S. 2017/18 rice ending stocks are raised 3 million cwt this month on a 1-million-cwt increase in imports and a 2-million-cwt decrease in exports. Both changes reflect the pace of trade to date. The import increase is primarily for long-grain aromatics from Asia. The entire export reduction was medium- and short-grain and is now projected at the lowest level in more than a decade. The 2017/18 season-average farm price for all rice is lowered $0.10 per cwt at the midpoint
to a range of $12.30 to $12.70. Total supplies for 2018/19 are raised 4 million cwt on increased beginning stocks and imports. Domestic and residual usage is raised 1 million cwt on larger supplies. Exports are raised 2 million cwt following the unusually low medium- and short-grain sales from the previous market year. Ending stocks for 2018/19 are raised 1 million cwt and prices are unchanged. Global supplies for 2018/19 are lowered 2.1 million tons primarily on reduced China production. China's harvested area is decreased 500,000 hectares and production is down 2.3 million tons. The reduced China supplies are accounted for by a 1-million-ton reduction in consumption and a 1.3-million-ton decrease in stocks. Global consumption is lowered 600,000 tons and exports are raised fractionally. With reduced supplies more than offsetting lower use, global ending stocks are down 1.5 million tons.

System for developing high-performance, big data codes to debut this week Source: Xinhua| 2018-06-12 04:45:30|Editor: Chengcheng
HOUSTON, June 11 (Xinhua) -- A research team of Rice University in Houston, Texas, the United States, will unveil this Thursday a system that would be helpful for systems programmers to deal with working pressure. According to news release by Rice University on Monday, the PlinyCompute will be unveiled at the 2018 ACM SIGMOD/PODS conference. In a peer-reviewed conference paper, the team describes PlinyCompute as "a system purely for developing high-performance, big data codes." Chris Jermaine, the Rice computer science professor leading the platform's development, said that PlinyCompute is designed to support the intense kinds of computation that have only previously been possible with supercomputers, or high-performance computers (HPC). According to Jia Zou, a Rice research scientist and first author of the ACM SIGMOD paper, PlinyCompute is different as compared to Spark, because it was designed for high performance from the ground up. Jia Zou, Ph.D graduate from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, is now a research scientist in the Department of Computer Science at Rice University, where she builds systems for large scale analytics and data management. She said, "In our benchmarking, we found PlinyCompute was at least twice as fast and in some cases 50 times faster at implementing complex object manipulation and library-style computations as compared to Spark." Spark is an open-source cluster-computing framework, providing an interface for programming entire clusters with implicit data parallelism and fault tolerance. Originally developed at the University of California, Berkeley's AMPLab, the Spark codebase was later donated to the Apache Software Foundation, which has maintained it since. The annual week-long ACM SIGMOD/PODS Conference, which will conclude in Houston on Friday, is a leading international forum for database researchers, practitioners, developers, and users to explore cutting-edge ideas and results, and to exchange techniques, tools, and experiences. http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2018-06/12/c_137247162.htm
Breaking up rice monopoly could result in cartels, cautions Padi Rescue Sangeetha Amarthalingam
The Edge Financial Daily
June 12, 2018 10:19 am +08 This article first appeared in The Edge Financial Daily, on June 12, 2018. KUALA LUMPUR: Fraught with problems from the planting stage to the marketing level, the rice industry needs to be managed by a board, not a group of companies that could lead to the set up of cartels. Industry coalition Padi Rescue coordinator Norfitri Amir Muhammad said trust and transparency could be reinstated with the revival of the National Rice and Paddy Board (LPN) that can establish a fund from the profit earned from rice imports to help farmers. ―As it stands, our study shows that monopoly holder Padiberas Nasional Bhd (Bernas) earns a profit margin of RM700 per tonne from the imported rice. Imagine what their profit must be like? ―If the LPN is revived with the participation of farmers, it will be an independent body made up by people who know the sector. Profit from imports [of rice] could go into the fund to help the sector in emergencies like disease-ridden plants and floods,‖ he told a media conference yesterday. Norfitri said the problem cannot be solved with just the appointment of a group of companies handling the imports because it does not resolve the low demand for local rice. ―Farmers don’t have the bargaining power to ask for good prices. This sector is not one that should be seen as a profit-making sector. The subsidy for padi is about RM2.2 billion but who benefits? ―The contract holders for fertilisers or insecticides mark up the prices. The government must review these contracts because it [can] save money here. So we should not be looking at Bernas
only but at every level, hence the need for the LPN (which was first set up in the 1970s),‖ he added. Last week, Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Minister Salahuddin Ayub announced the termination of tycoon Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al-Bukhari’s Bernas’ rice import monopoly. Bernas took over from the LPN in 1996 and was listed a year later on Bursa Malaysia before it was taken private. In 2011, its concession to import rice was extended for another 10 years until 2021. However, as part of the Pakatan Harapan government’s manifesto to break Bernas’ monopoly, a working paper with ministry feedback and other stakeholders is being drafted to be submitted to the government for further action. According to a study by the Malay Economic Action Council (MTEM), an umbrella body representing 47 Malay non-governmental organisations, local rice farmers milled 1.82 billion tonnes of rice last year, and up to 900,000 tonnes of rice were imported by Bernas, mostly from Vietnam, to meet the shortfall of 2.75 billion tonnes for consumption in Malaysia. Malaysia imports 30% of rice. Norfitri said Malaysian farmers are able to make up to 100% of local demand but due to bad management of the industry, including weak seeds because of a lack of research and development, and high costs of fertilisers and insecticides. Padi Rescue is an organisation of farmers under the MTEM. Local farmer Azhar Hashim, 50, said a government subsidy of RM2,000 per hectare is high, but farmers still experience losses because of alleged discrepancies in the sector like the sale of insecticides at RM90 a bottle compared with RM40 in countries like Thailand. http://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/breaking-rice-monopoly-could-result-cartels-cautions-padirescue-0
COA says rice price levels and subsidies to be maintained By Lin Chia-nan / Staff reporter The Council of Agriculture (COA) yesterday promised to keep rice prices above certain levels, while calling on farmers not to believe ―fake news‖ and rush to harvest unripe rice. Over the past few weeks, the council has been besieged by false news about crop sales, it said. Since last week, many rice farmers in central and southern Taiwan have begun to harvest rice before it is ripe, fearing a possible typhoon or flooding, as well as the council’s possible release of rice reserves, which would affect the sale of their harvest. Claims that the council would release rice are fabricated, COA Deputy Minister Chen Chi-chung (陳吉仲) told a news conference in Taipei yesterday, adding that retailers must still purchase rice from farmers. He called on farmers not to harvest unripe rice, as it contains a higher moisture content and would fetch a discounted price. Rice with a moisture content of less than 30 percent can be sold to the government for at least NT$950 per 60kg, he said. If harvests are affected by natural disasters, the council would purchase the rice at NT$141,600 per hectare and offer cash relief of NT$18,000 per hectare of rice, he said. Farmers choosing to sell rice at market can also earn a subsidy of NT$13,500 per hectare of harvested rice under the council’s policy to encourage agricultural production, he said. Chen confirmed local media reports that President Tsai Ing-wen (蔡英文) had expressed dissatisfaction with the council’s performance in handling crop sales when he reported the council’s policies at a Democratic Progressive Party meeting on Wednesday last week. Fluctuations in crop prices can be stabilized through short-term measures, but the council is considering more fundamental reforms, such as building cooling systems for crops and diversifying the variety of agricultural products, he said. An imbalance in the supply and demand of crops might still occur, but the council would try to minimize its scope, Chen added.While some farmers said they earned only NT$880 to NT$910 per 60kg of rice, it is because their rice contains up to 35 percent moisture, COA Agriculture and Food Agency Deputy Director-General Juang Lao-dar (莊老達) said. Seasoned farmers can differentiate between the appearance of ripe and unripe rice, yet some still hurried to harvest it due to uncertainty about the weather and market prices, Juang said.
It usually takes 24 hours to dry rice with a moisture content of 30 percent or less, but it might take up to 40 hours to dry rice containing more moisture, making retailers less willing to buy it, he added. http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/taiwan/archives/2018/06/12/2003694756
Anti-GMO groups draw FDA rebuke over misrepresentation of Golden Rice nutrition Andrew Porterfield | Genetic Literacy Project | June 11, 2018
F inally, the FDA weighed in on Golden Rice, with its May 24 announcement approving it for use in the United States. This approval, just a few months after Canada, Australia and New Zealand’s agencies issued theirs, is largely symbolic, since the International Rice Research Institute, now the makers of Golden Rice, have no intention of selling the product in the United States. However, an FDA approval carries a lot of gravitas worldwide, and the decision is being met with attempts by anti-GM groups to discredit the nutritional value and usefulness of Golden Rice. Just after the FDA’s approval, Independent Science News, a website known for its opposition to genetic engineering and recombinant technologies, published an article headlined ―GMO Golden Rice Offers no Nutritional Benefits Says FDA.‖ Sustainable Pulse, another anti-GM organization reprinted the article, focusing on a misleading nutritional fact that both groups (among others) have perpetuated:
But, in a surprising twist, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has concluded its consultation process on Golden Rice by informing its current developers, the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI), that Golden Rice does not meet the nutritional requirements to make a health claim. This has been a common criticism of golden rice from groups like ISN and Greenpeace, which argue the approved version of Golden Rice doesn’t have enough beta-carotene, the precursor to Vitamin A, to make a nutritional difference. Instead, these groups advocate planting bananas, carrots, spinach or sweet potatoes, none of which are as affordable or even practical in places suffering from Vitamin A deficiency. The article, written by ISN Executive Director Jonathan Latham and Assistant Editor Allison Wilson, pointed to a line in the FDA approval letter that observed that ―the version of Golden Rice approved, called GR2E, contains very little of the key ingredient, beta-carotene. Worse, even the little that it does contain rapidly degrades during storage. For the reasons, FDA has told its developed…that no health claims may be based on it.‖
The FDA did state that. Also, Health Canada wrote that ―Replacement of all rice and rice products in Canada with GR2E rice would result in a very small 0.8-8% (34 µg-239 µg per day) increase in ß-carotene intake.‖ But a health claim is not the same thing as a nutrition statement. So the FDA and Health Canada statements don’t translate into ―no nutritional value,‖ nor does it mean that, as Latham and Wilson wrote, ―the tradeoff experienced by the Golden Rice project between beta-carotene production and yield in its various GMO rices has not been resolved.‖ The FDA also has since rebutted Latham and Wilson's article, sayingthe claim of ―no value‖ is misleading. In the comments section of the ISN website, this response was posted from Marianna Naum, communications team lead from the FDA’s Office of Food and Veterinary Medicine: It is unfortunate that the statement you reference in our letter responding to BNF 158 has been misconstrued to suggest that there would be no value of the pro-vitamin A in golden rice for its use in the countries where it is intended for distribution. Our statement applies only to labeling considerations in the United States, in that golden rice contains insufficient pro-vitamin A to warrant differential labeling for nutrient content based on the low levels of rice consumption in the U.S. Requirements for nutrient content claims on labels
in the United States take two factors into account, the amount of the nutrient needed as well as it’s concentration in the food and the typical or average level of that food consumed in the U.S. For the rice to be labeled in the United States with a claim containing provitamin A, our regulations stipulate that the food must contain 10-19 percent of the RDI or DRV for the substance per reference amount customarily consumed (essentially a measure of consumption). Additionally, U.S. consumers eat rice at very low levels compared to consumers in the specific Asian countries with vitamin A deficiency for which golden rice was developed. IRRI reports that consumption of rice by children in Bangladesh is 12.5 g/kg body weight/day, compared to about 0.5 g/kg bw/d for U.S. consumers). Rice is the major staple in those countries and levels of rice consumption are many-fold higher than they are in the U.S. While a U.S Consumer would be unlikely to eat enough of the rice to achieve that value (10-19 % of the NDI or RDA), that does not mean that the level of consumption of golden rice in the targeted countries would be insufficient to accomplish the intended effect of supplementing their very low consumption of vitamin A-containing foods. Consuming rice containing the levels of pro-vitamin A in GR2E rice as a staple of the diet could have a significant public health impact in populations that suffer from vitamin A deficiency. The FDA, Health Canada and even Australia and New Zealand were looking at overall safety, and applying nutritional claims to their own, healthy populations. The Vitamin A/beta-carotene deficiency targeted by Golden Rice do no exist in those nations. That’s why IRRI has no intention of introducing Golden Rice to these industrialized countries—it does want to introduce it to countries, especially in Asia, that are experiencing high levels of Vitamin A deficiency among children and infants, killing up to two million children every year and making hundreds of thousands of them go blind. In a letter to Latham that was obtained by the Genetic Literacy Project, Golden Rice Humanitarian Board Executive Secretary Adrian Dubock pointed out that these ―first world‖ agencies did not access the nutritional benefit of added beta-carotene in developing countries. That’s because no recommended daily allowances exist for developing countries. So, the FDA considers a ―nutrition claim‖ to address any food that has more than 10 percent of the daily RDA in a 45 gram serving. And golden rice doesn’t have that much carotene, but, as Dubock points out, it has enough: Nutritionists calculate that 30-40% of the EAR (estimated average requirement) for a source of Vitamin A, consumed daily is sufficient to prevent the two separate morbidities of Vitamin A deficiency, blindness and the loss of a functional immune system,” Dubock wrote. “Only a few tens of grams of dry Golden Rice, when cooked and consumed daily, is expected to combat vitamin A deficiency and save life and site. In countries throughout Asia that consume up to 300 grams of rice every day, this means a lot more beta-carotene could be consumed than in the United States, where even 45 grams might be a high figure. Rice is a much cheaper stape, and also much more affordable than meat and other animal products, and colored fruits and vegetables like bananas and carrots (the latter which was bred to enhance beta-carotene content, incidentally, in the 14th century).
Latham and Wilson’s article states that: In an attached memo, FDA notes the beta-carotene content of unmilled Golden Rice GR2E ranged from 0.50-2.35 ug/g. That is, beta-carotene levels in Golden Rice are both low and variable. This compares to beta-carotene levels measured in non-GMO foods such as fresh carrot (13.8-49.3 ug/g); Asian greens (19.74-66.04 ug/g); and spinach (111 ug/g). But, as Michigan State University plant biologist Chad Niederhuth wrote in a response to the article, these are comparing apples and oranges: It is obvious in the FDA letter than beta carotene levels are considerably higher than that of normal rice. The FDA letter states that beta carotene in the non-Golden Rice controls was below the limit of quantification of 0.07 mg/kg, in Golden Rice it was 0.504 to 2.35 mg/kg…many times higher. Wilson and Latham never actually tell you how much higher Golden Rice’s beta carotene levels compared to equivalent consumed rice varieties. Instead they compare it to older versions of Golden Rrice or other crops like carrots. Carrots, spinach and sweet potatoes can’t be easily or cheaply grown in southeast Asia.

SCO summit 2018: How India protected its interests in China's Qingdao
India has not extended support to President Xi's flagship initiative as a key project under it, the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), passes through Pakistan-occupied Kashmir IANS | New Delhi Last Updated at June 12, 2018 23:56 IST
Pakistan’s President Mamnoon Hussain (right) shakes hands with Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a signing ceremony during the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit at Qingdao in China on Sunday. Photo: Reuters signing an agreement on sharing of hydrological data on the Brahmaputra river and another on exporting rice following a bilateral meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping, India kept its interests safe in this year's Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) Summit, experts said. India has not extended support to President Xi's flagship initiative as a key project under it, the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), passes through Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). Modi reiterated India's position that international connectivity projects should respect other countries' sovereignty and territorial integrity. Stating that connectivity with neighbours and
within the SCO area is a priority for India, Modi, during his intervention at the Summit in Qingdao, China, on Sunday said: "We welcome new connectivity projects that are inclusive, sustainable and transparent, and respect countries' sovereignty and territorial integrity." The SCO is a Eurasian inter-governmental organisation, the creation of which was announced in 2001 in Shanghai by Kazakhstan, China, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. It was preceded by the Shanghai Five mechanism. India and Pakistan were granted full membership of the bloc in June last year. In the final Qingdao Declaration issued after the Summit, India's name is conspicuously missing in the part about the BRI. According to Anil Wadhwa, Senior Fellow in the Vivekananda International Foundation think tank and former Secretary (East) in the External Affairs Ministry, the meeting between Modi and Xi was a forward movement from the informal meeting between the two leaders in Wuhan in April with decisions being taken to set up a special representatives-level meeting mechanism and to boost cultural relations between India and China. As for India not extending support to the BRI, Wadhwa told IANS that nobody expected India to endorse Xi's pet initiative. "I don't think it will affect India diplomatically as there is an understanding between both sides (India and China)," he said. "If they look at the Northeast in the future from the BBIN (Bangladesh-Bhutan-India-Nepal) rubric, that is a different matter." However, Wadhwa sounded sceptical about the two agreements signed between India and China - a memorandum of understanding on the Chinese side providing hydrological data on the Brahmaputra river in flood season from May 15 to October 15 every year and an amendment to a 2006 protocol for exporting rice from India to China to include the export of non-Basmati varieties of rice from India. "With China already having built three dams on their side of the Brahmaputra, I don't know how useful the data will be," he said. As for exporting non-Basmati varieties of rice, he said that such a market does not currently exist in China and this has to be created.
However, Sujit Dutta, a domain expert on China who is also Professor in the Nelson Mandela Centre for Peace and Conflict Resolution in Jamia Milia Islamia here, was positive about the two agreements. "India kept its interests safe. While the agreement on sharing Brahmaputra will benefit India, the one on rice exports will help our farmers," Dutta said. As for the BRI, he said that India has always made it clear that it would not support the Chinese initiative. "How can India support something that threatens its sovereignty with the CPEC going through PoK?" he said. Modi said in Qingdao that India's commitment to connectivity is visible nevertheless in the International North-South Transport Corridor, the development of the Chabahar Port in Iran, to which India, Iran and Afghanistan are signatories, and participation in specific projects like the Ashgabat Agreement, a multimodal transport agreement between India, Iran, Kazakhstan, Oman, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan. Another reason for India not taking part in the BRI, Dutta said, is that Chinese loans for projects under this have high interest rates and terms and conditions are not transparent. Giving Hambantota port in Sri Lanka as an example, he said that the port has been given to a Chinese company on a 99-year lease and Colombo will find it difficult to repay the loan. He said that same is the case with Gwadar port in Pakistan and Islamabad might well come under Chinese influence after finding it difficult to repay loans. "We (India) can't become vulnerable to Chinese pressure and take loans which we can't repay," Dutta said. According to C. Uday Bhaskar, strategic analyst and Director of the Society for Policy Studies think tank, the key takeaway from the SCO Summit "is the manner in which India conveyed to its SCO peers that it can remain resolute when it comes to core national interests, for example, sovereignty". "But it will also engage with the others in principles, yet pragmatic manner," Bhaskar said.
He said that the Indian stand on the BRI will be watched very closely not just by China, but all the other nations who have signed up. "Hopefully, the Wuhan spirit will prevail with respect to the BRI and make the issue less intractable when President Xi visits India in 2019," Bhaskar stated.

China Helping Boost Cambodia Rice’ Global Image & Quality (video)
Despite a long history and the receipt of numerous awards the global market image of Cambodia rice lags far behind that from Thailand and Vietnam. One young Cambodian is attempting to change that, however, with a partnership with China’s largest food processing companies helping boost exports and drive up quality. Son-in-law to Prime Minister Hun Sen and president of the Cambodia Rice Federation (CRF) since its formation in 2014, Sok Puthyvuth returned to Cambodia after completing his overseas studies determined to build a name for Cambodia rice. He says at first his family didn’t approve of his choice, believing his expensive overseas
education would be wasted. Now, he says, they see how the changes he has helped to implement are gradually improving the life of Khmer farmers and the image of the country. As part of his efforts to promote a market reputation for Cambodia rice, the CRF has entered into an agreement with Chinese state-run National Cereals, Oils and Foodstuffs Corporation (Cofco), which Mr Sok hopes will boost exports and help increase the rate of modernisation in the Cambodia rice farming sector. Since 2014 Cofco has imported over 100,000 tons of Cambodia rice, establishing China as the primary export destination globally for Cambodia rice. In the first six months of this year 288,562 tons of Cambodia rice was exported, a 7.6 per cent increase over the same period last year, with shipments to China accounting for 94,720 tons. Hun Lak, vice president of the CRF, said the price of Cambodian rice abroad has been on the rise for both milled and unmilled types since early February 2018 due to higher demand in China and the European Union (EU). In the video above made by State-owned Chinese media organisations China Central Television (CCTV), Mr Sok says he has already devoted a considerable portion of his life to improving the brand recognition of Cambodia rice and see’s the relationship with Cofco and the Chinese One Belt One Road (Obor) initiative as boosting his goal of making Cambodia rice a globally recognised brand.

Rice exports may drop by up to 1 million tonnes in FY19 In last financial year, the country's exports increased nearly 18 percent year-on-year to 12.7 mt in FY18, due to increased demand for non-basmati rice from Bangladesh, Africa and Sri Lanka. The country's rice exports is likely to reduce by 0.5-1 million tonne (mt) in the current financial year due to a possible reduction in imports by Bangladesh, a report said here. In last financial year, the country's exports increased nearly 18 percent year-on-year to 12.7 mt in FY18, due to increased demand for non-basmati rice from Bangladesh, Africa and Sri Lanka. The imports by Bangladesh are likely to reduce in 2018-2019, as its domestic output rebounds due to a crop recovery and expansion in area sown because of high prices in 2017, India Ratings said in its report here, adding as a result, India's exports could reduce by 0.5 mt to one mt. The country's exports may also reduce barring a recurrence of floods in Bangladesh, in light of the heavy pre-
monsoon rains, the report said. Bangladesh accounted for around 15 percent of India's total exports in last financial year, against only one percent in FY17. The neighbouring country imported around 3.7 mt of rice between July 2017 and April 2018, which is the highest ever rice import in Bangladesh, as production fell due to flash floods and rice blast attacks, India Ratings said. Among other major importers, Iran, the largest buyer of India's basmati rice, and Saudi Arabia accounted for around 7.5 percent and 7 percent to the total exports, respectively, in FY18. Exports to Iran are likely to increase in FY19, according to the report. The rating agency believes the country's export price is also likely to remain competitive compared to Thailand and Vietnam. http://www.blackseagrain.net/novosti/rice-exports-may-drop-by-up-to-1-million-tonnes-in-fy19
Arkansas rice still on track despite storms, difficult spring, experts say By Ryan McGeeney Special to The Commercial
Jun 11, 2018 at 12:45 PMUpdated Jun 11, 2018 at 3:08 PM As the nation’s No. 1 rice producer, Arkansas can have an outsized effect on U.S. rice production one year to the next, depending on fates largely tied to the weather. And 2018 is shaping up to be anything but simple — or predictable, experts say. ―The rice crop looks great at the moment, but it’s been a difficult season,‖ said Jarrod Hardke, extension rice agronomist for the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture. ―One of the coldest Aprils on record followed by the hottest May on record has a lot to do with it.‖ As of last week, nearly 100 percent of planned rice acreage throughout the state had already emerged, with growers rating 70 percent of the crop as being in ―good‖ or ―excellent‖ condition, according to a June 4 report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service. But cool weather and rain in April hindered the application — and likely the effectiveness — of herbicides, which may have consequences later in the season, Hardke said. ―Emergence on early planted rice was extremely delayed by the cold April weather and so we didn’t benefit much from early residual herbicide applications,‖ he said. ―Once we got to May and things warmed up and dried out, they stayed dry and our herbicides didn’t work very well again. Many acres also needed to be flushed to relieve the drought stress conditions and to activate residual herbicides.‖
Sporadic rains also interfered with the crop’s ideal fertilization window, leaving growers to try to ―play catch-up‖ during a recent window of dry weather. The June 2 storm that impacted several areas throughout northeastern Arkansas, particularly St. Francis County between Colt and Forest City, appears to have done relatively little damage to rice growers, although a full assessment of crop damage is incomplete. ―The area that was most impacted was relatively small,‖ Hardke said. ―I know there were some levee issues, but it was a smaller scale and not all rice in the area has gone to flood yet.‖ Hardke said the recent high heat, dry conditions and variable winds have also resulted in some reports of off-target herbicide drift. One measure of the extremity of the 2018 season is the DD50 program, which measures days during which the temperature rises about 50 degrees Fahrenheit to predict the growth of rice. ―In April, we accumulated the fewest DD50 units in the past 30 years. In May we accumulated the most DD50 units in the past 30 years,‖ Hardke said. ―Quite a swing. What a season,‖ he said. ―And we’re not even halfway through.‖ To learn about row crops in Arkansas, contact a local Cooperative Extension Service agent or visit www.uaex.edu.

NFA defers to late-June auction for importation of 805,200 metric tons of rice By Jasper Y. Arcalas June 12, 2018
A man arranges sacks of NFA rice at a warehouse in Quezon City, in this file photo. Following complaints from some farmer groups, the National Food Authority has deferred to late-June the auction for the importation of 805,200 metric tons (MT ) of rice by the private sector under the minimum access volume scheme. FOLLOWING complaints from some farmer groups, the National Food Authority (NFA) has deferred to late-June the auction for the importation of 805,200 metric tons (MT) of rice by the private sector under the minimum access volume (MAV) scheme. NFA Deputy Administrator Judy Carol Dansal told the BusinessMirror that the NFA Council (NFAC) has decided to cancel the scheduled auction on June 14 and moved it to June 25.
The NFAC also decided to reduce the minimum service-fee requirement for the auction to P100 with a bid offer increment of P10 per MT, from the earlier approved P250 minimum amount with P250 per MT increment, according to Dansal. The NFAC also moved to extend the filing of application for interested parties to June 18. ―The majority [of the] members of the NFA Council had agreed and voted to consider some of their concerns,‖ Dansal told the BusinessMirror. Dansal said the NFAC approved the changes on Monday evening.
However, the NFAC
maintained some of the provisions of the importation guidelines, such as the schedule of arrival and the financial standing requirement for participating farmers’ organizations and non-FOs. ―[The schedule of the arrival] remains the same, since the arrival should not coincide during harvest time,‖ she said. Various farmers group have aired their opposition to the new MAV importation guidelines directly to the Office of the President. They also submitted to the NFAC on June 7 a letter containing some of their complaints on the importation guidelines. The concerns included the volume allocation for FOs and non-FOs, the amount of service fee, the financial standing requirement and the schedule of the arrival of the importation, according to Edwin Y. Paraluman. Paraluman sits at the NFAC as a representative of the farmers. Paraluman said farmers are questioning the 20-80 allocation of the 805,200 MT volume between FOs and non FOs. They complain that their 20- percent allocation is too small compared to that of corporations. ―The farmers are saying that the allocation of corporations is too high while the farmers are left with a small volume,‖ Paraluman, who is also the chairman of the Philippine Farmers Advisory Board, told the BusinessMirror.―They are questioning why a corporation could import as much as 50,000 metric tons, while farmers could only import 5,000 metric tons at maximum. If you look at it, it seems that the allocation for the MAV between farmers and corporations is not fair,‖ Paraluman added. Paraluman said FOs earn from the importation of rice as they sell to businessmen their purchased staple abroad. He noted that the income they gain from importation allows them to purchase farm machinery and inputs they need to improve their productivity.
Paraluman said farmer groups who raised their concerns to the NFAC invoked the provisions of the Agriculture and Fisheries Modernization Act,which seek to protect small-scale farmers through: protection from unfair competition, providing income opportunities, and strengthening farmers’ organization through cooperation, according to Paraluman. ―It seems like what they did [with the volume allocation] is far from the objective of our law,‖ he said.The NFA earlier explained that it came up with the 20-80 volume allocation for FOs and non-FOs ―based on the history of previous availments‖ by the respective groups under the MAV importation scheme. Paraluman dismissed such percentage and noted that the 20-80 volume sharing between FOs and non-FOs only happened in last year’s MAV, where many participants signed up for the importation. ―The prorating of allocation in the last MAV was not right. Historically in the previous MAVs, which they have records, the volume allocation between farmers and corporations is 40-60,‖ he said. ―It is not the fault of the farmer organizations [that] their allocation in the previous MAV accounted for only about 20 percent of the total volume. There were a lot of applicants last year, plus they cut some of the farmers’ allocation.‖ Farmers also fret over the new financial standing requirement for FOs and non-FOs to be able to join the auction. The NFAC now requires applicants to submit financial documents on their current net worth, instead of the previous total net worth requirement. The change, Paraluman noted, limits the participation of FOs, particularly the small ones, in the rice importation. ―If it is totel assets, then small farmers would be able to participate and earn income somehow. Because if it is total assets, the net worth of the farmers would be higher and so they will be able to participate,‖ he said. However, Dansal said the NFAC has maintained the new financial standing requirement for applicants so as to prove to cynics that cooperatives are capable of importation.―It is to ensure the import capacity of the cooperatives in order to destroy the allegations of some public figures that these cooperatives have no money and that they are selling their import permits to businessmen,‖ she said.
Paraluman said farmers are also questioning the schedule of import arrival, as the first phase of the importation coincides with the last phase of last year’s MAV importation, which is from July to August. Due to this, the farmers argued, the market will be flooded with rice, causing lower farm-gate prices of palay by the time of the main harvest in the fourth quarter, said Paraluman. ―For sure the farm-gate price of palay will decline below P20 per kilogram by harvest time due to the volume of imported rice this lean season,‖ he said. ―That is one concern of the farmers,‖ who wonder aloud ―why they are rushing the importation of the current MAV when, in fact, there is still a remainder of about 200,000 metric tons from the previous MAV,‖ he added. However, Dansal said importers could opt to bring in their imports in the second phase of the MAV importation program, scheduled from December to February of next year.Paraluman will still raise the concerns of the farmers at the NFAC meeting next week, ―despite the changes to the guidelines.‖

Bad weather stalls NFA rice distribution National Food Authority spokesperson Rex Estoperez says rice imports from Thailand and Vietnam have been stuck in the ports for 9 days Ralf Rivas Published 5:43 PM, June 12, 2018 Updated 5:48 PM, June 12, 2018
MANILA, Philippines – While rice imports from Thailand and Vietnam have arrived in the country, bad weather has kept the National Food Authority (NFA) from distributing its fresh stocks to the local market. "As soon as the weather becomes a little better, the stocks will be immediately brought to NFA warehouses and immediate dispersal will follow," NFA administrator Jason Aquino said. NFA spokesperson Rex Estoperez said in a GMA Newsinterview that rice imports have been stuck in the ports for 9 days. In a Facebook post, Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel Piñol said Aquino had informed him that 235,000 metric tons (MT) of rice are already in Philippine waters. The agriculture chief said some 10,000 MT have been unloaded in Subic Freeport in Zambales, while 5,000 MT were dispatched in Surigao. "Government-subsidized rice imported by the National Food Authority which will be sold at P27 to P32 per kilo will be available in the market within the next few days," Piñol said. NFA rice will be sold at a much cheaper price than commercial rice, which is typically priced at P38 to P40. (READ: NFA rice shortage: Whose fault is it?) Aside from the imports from Thailand and Vietnam acquired through the government-togovernment scheme, the agency has also opened bids for an additonal 250,000 MT of imported
rice through the government-to-private sector scheme. The bid winners of have yet to be announced. Meanwhile, Aquino responded to Budget Secretary Benjamin Diokno’s allegation that the price surge in rice was due to the agency’s ―incompetence.‖ ―The depletion of NFA rice supply was not a result of NFA’s inefficiency or the incompetence of its officials. It was the consequence of a difference in views and appreciation of how the NFA mandate is supposed to be done,‖ Aquino said. The NFA chief said instead of pointing blame, all those in government should just "help each other find the right and immediate solutions" to the problems. Despite the replenishment of supply, the level of imports are still nowhere near the marching order of President Rodrigo Duterte to build up the rice buffer stock to last 60 days, equivalent to 1.9 million metric tons. – Rappler.com https://www.rappler.com/business/204748-bad-weather-nfa-rice-distribution
Bernas CEO says price of rice ‘already cheap’, can go no lower 12 June 2018 By Anith Adilah
Bernas chief executive officer Ismail Mohamed Yusof speaks to reporters outside Ilham Tower, Kuala Lumpur June 12, 2018. — Picture by Mukhriz Hazim
KUALA LUMPUR, June 12 — Padiberas Nasional Berhad (Bernas) chief executive officer Ismail Mohamed Yusof said today the current system of rice import should be maintained as it has never failed consumers. ―There has been no issue with rice since you were born, until now, has there? You face shortages in other (kinds of) food, but never rice. ―We always had supplies of rice in the market, our paddy is among the highest in the region and our rice is among the cheapest in the region. ―This proves that the current system works so it should be maintained,‖ he told reporters after a meet with the Council of Eminent Persons at Ilham Tower today. Ismail said the public has only scrutinised the monopoly aspect of the rice import system but failed to take into account the social obligations of Bernas over the years. ―We have always supported farmers. Paddy is the only commodity that has a buy-back guarantee from the government. When the produce is infected, we will still buy from them. ―We also take the profit from the sole rice import and subsidise local rice. These are our social obligations that no one talks about,‖ he said.
On June 6, Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Ministry announced the termination of Bernas’ monopoly ―to protect the interests of local paddy farmers.‖ The rice importer currently owns about 28 out of 180 mills in the country. When asked if it is possible for the prices of rice to drop further in the near future, Ismail brushed it off, saying: ―The price of rice here is already cheap.‖ ―60 per cent of rice is local rice so when you talk cheaper prices, that means lower income for farmers. ―As it is now, a bowl of rice costs 26 sen so how much cheaper do you want it to be? ―Rice is already cheap. It is affordable to everyone,‖ he said. https://www.malaymail.com/s/1641120/bernas-ceo-says-price-of-rice-already-cheap-can-go-no-lower
Bernas: Some form of rice import monopoly needed
NATION Tuesday, 12 Jun 2018 2:30 PM MYT martin carvalho KUALA LUMPUR: Padiberas Nasional Bhd (Bernas) wants some form of rice import monopoly to be maintained, said chief executive officer Ismail Mohamed Yusoff. "The system works and it should be maintained."However, if the Government wants to relook into it, we are very keen to work with them," he said after meeting up with the Council of Eminent Persons at Ilham Tower here Tuesday (June 12). Besides importing rice, Ismail noted that Bernas also looked into the livelihood of some 150,000 paddy farmers, while ensuring fair price for their harvest. "Rice is the only commodity which the government guarantees farmers a buy back. "We take the profits made from rice imports and subsidise local paddy farmers," he added. Ismail noted that Bernas operated only 28 out of 180 rice mills in the country, where between 650,000 metric tons and 800,000 metric tons tons of paddy is imported into the country per annum.
Asked if ending the rice monopoly would lower rice price, Ismail said this was unlikely. "We have the cheapest price for rice with a bowl costing 26 sen."Even if we lowered it by just one sen, this would be mean local farmers will be affected," he said, adding that they supply some two million tons of paddy. On food security, he said that Bernas' role as the "sole gatekeeper" was crucial in ensuring sufficient supply and stock of rice.Besides the Government's three-month rice stockpile, he said that Bernas has stockpile for three months and two months' stockpile held by local suppliers.At present, he said the nation imports about 650,000 metric tons of rice a year. Last Wednesday (June 6), Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Minister Salahuddin Ayub announced the end of Bernas' monopoly to import rice.Salahuddin said a working paper on breaking up the monopoly would be drafted following feedback from all stakeholders.A day later, Salahuddin assured that the Government was not planning to close down Bernas, although the company's monopoly over the supply of rice has been reduced. He said the plan was only to break the company's monopoly to supply rice by granting the same licence to several other companies. https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2018/06/12/bernas-some-form-of-rice-import-monopoly-needed
Rice exports may drop by up to 1 million tonnes in FY19
In last financial year, the country's exports increased nearly 18 percent year-on-year to 12.7 mt in FY18, due to increased demand for non-basmati rice from Bangladesh, Africa and Sri Lanka. PTI@moneycontrolcom
The country's rice exports is likely to reduce by 0.5-1 million tonne (mt) in the current financial year due to a possible reduction in imports by Bangladesh, a report said here. In last financial year, the country's exports increased nearly 18 percent year-on-year to 12.7 mt in FY18, due to increased demand for non-basmati rice from Bangladesh, Africa and Sri Lanka. The imports by Bangladesh are likely to reduce in 2018-2019, as its domestic output rebounds due to a crop recovery and expansion in area sown because of high prices in 2017, India Ratings said in its report here, adding as a result, India's exports could reduce by 0.5 mt to one mt. The country's exports may also reduce barring a recurrence of floods in Bangladesh, in light of the heavy pre-monsoon rains, the report said.Bangladesh accounted for around 15 percent of India's total exports in last financial year, against only one percent in FY17.
The neighbouring country imported around 3.7 mt of rice between July 2017 and April 2018, which is the highest ever rice import in Bangladesh, as production fell due to flash floods and rice blast attacks, India Ratings said. Among other major importers, Iran, the largest buyer of India's basmati rice, and Saudi Arabia accounted for around 7.5 percent and 7 percent to the total exports, respectively, in FY18. Exports to Iran are likely to increase in FY19, according to the report. The rating agency believes the country's export price is also likely to remain competitive compared to Thailand and Vietnam. https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/business/rice-exports-may-drop-by-up-to-1-million-tonnes-in-fy192587961.html

New Study Says Multi-Vitamins are Useless Childhood NutritionGeorgiaHealth AlertHealth NewsMaconMalnutritionNutritionNutrition Facts LabelPMI NutritionTofu ProteinTotal Parental NutritionUndernutritionUpdate Nutrition LabelsVitamin AVitamin B SupplementVitamin B Supplement Contains SteroidsVitamin CVitamin D Vitamin and mineral supplements may be a waste of money, according to a new study. The research found that multi-vitamins provided no helpful or harmful effect. The study, published in the American College of Cardiology, also found that these supplements did not help prevent stroke, cardiovascular disease or premature death.
If you’re eating a healthy diet, stop wasting your money buying multi-vitamins,‖ says Dietitian Naomi McKensie of the Coliseum Medical Centers Clinic. ―You more than likely don’t need it If you’re already getting enough through your diet.‖But diet is where the problem lies. There is evidence that changes in the environment are altering vitamin and mineral levels in foods. Research suggests that rice may no longer contain essential B vitamins by the end of the century. Protein levels and levels of certain minerals will also start to dwindle, data suggests.
High carbon dioxide concentrations were tested in experimental rice paddies in China. The test predicted the loss of four vitamins: B9, B1, B5 and B2. Vitamin E levels were higher, and vitamin B6 levels remained the same. Those experiments supported previous studies of rice and other food crops. B vitamins play an essential role in maintaining a healthy brain and allowing for normal fetal development. The results were similar to experiments performed in Japan, where researchers noted a 10.3% decline in protein, a 5.1% decline in zinc and an 8% decline in iron. As part of the experiment, researchers grew 18 varieties of rice in the Yangtze River delta of China and near the city of Tsukuba in Japan. A series of piping exposed the rice to higher concentrations of CO2 than the current level. Declines in rice nutrients could hit Asia hard. Asia is home to nine out of the ten most ricedependent nations in the world. Researchers predict that 600 million people may be at risk for nutrient deficiencies if the nutrients in rice continue to decline. Experts recommend getting tested to determine whether there’s a vitamin deficiency before taking vitamin supplements or multi-vitamins. Not all supplements are bad or ineffective, experts say. Probiotics, for example, help balance hormones and boost the population of good bacteria in the gut. Amino acid supplements provide energy, while digestive enzymes improve the body’s ability to absorb nutrients. Fish oils may be helpful, too. But ultimately, McKensie says a well-balanced diet will provide all of the vitamins and nutrients you need to maintain a healthy body. She recommends eating red, green and orange vegetables as well as dark leafy greens. http://www.theglobaldispatch.com/new-study-says-multi-vitamins-are-useless-14813/
Bad weather stalls NFA rice distribution National Food Authority spokesperson Rex Estoperez says rice imports from Thailand and Vietnam have been stuck in the ports for 9 days Ralf Rivas Published 5:43 PM, June 12, 2018 Updated 5:48 PM, June 12, 2018
MANILA, Philippines – While rice imports from Thailand and Vietnam have arrived in the country, bad weather has kept the National Food Authority (NFA) from distributing its fresh stocks to the local market. "As soon as the weather becomes a little better, the stocks will be immediately brought to NFA warehouses and immediate dispersal will follow," NFA administrator Jason Aquino said. NFA spokesperson Rex Estoperez said in a GMA Newsinterview that rice imports have been stuck in the ports for 9 days. In a Facebook post, Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel Piñol said Aquino had informed him that 235,000 metric tons (MT) of rice are already in Philippine waters. The agriculture chief said some 10,000 MT have been unloaded in Subic Freeport in Zambales, while 5,000 MT were dispatched in Surigao. "Government-subsidized rice imported by the National Food Authority which will be sold at P27 to P32 per kilo will be available in the market within the next few days," Piñol said. NFA rice will be sold at a much cheaper price than commercial rice, which is typically priced at P38 to P40. (READ: NFA rice shortage: Whose fault is it?)
Aside from the imports from Thailand and Vietnam acquired through the government-togovernment scheme, the agency has also opened bids for an additonal 250,000 MT of imported rice through the government-to-private sector scheme. The bid winners of have yet to be announced. Meanwhile, Aquino responded to Budget Secretary Benjamin Diokno’s allegation that the price surge in rice was due to the agency’s ―incompetence.‖ ―The depletion of NFA rice supply was not a result of NFA’s inefficiency or the incompetence of its officials. It was the consequence of a difference in views and appreciation of how the NFA mandate is supposed to be done,‖ Aquino said. The NFA chief said instead of pointing blame, all those in government should just "help each other find the right and immediate solutions" to the problems. Despite the replenishment of supply, the level of imports are still nowhere near the marching order of President Rodrigo Duterte to build up the rice buffer stock to last 60 days, equivalent to 1.9 million metric tons. – Rappler.com Leave a comment https://www.rappler.com/business/204748-bad-weather-nfa-rice-distribution
Danger with government’s domination of rice production, by Jerry Uwah June 12, 2018
Nigeria may gradually be returning to the days when agriculture was the fulcrum of the economy. Considerable strides are being made in key areas especially rice production. Audu Ogbeh, Nigeria’s minister of agriculture insists that rice imports have been reduced by 90 per cent. Ogbeh is so elated by increase in rice production that some months ago he talked his way into trouble with the Thai ambassador to Nigeria. Ogbeh had boasted that rice production in Nigeria had reduced imports so drastically that some rice mills in Thailand were being shut down. The Thai ambassador argued vehemently that Ogbeh had lied. He demanded an apology but Ogbeh responded with graveyard silence. The dispute died a natural death without anyone knowing who was telling the truth. The Thais might not have shut down their rice mills, but Africa’s largest economy is just beginning to learn the ropes on self-sufficiency in food production. If rice importation has dropped by 90 per cent, one could therefore argue that Nigeria now produces more than five million out of the six million tons of rice it consumes annually. That is good news. However, the bad news about the boom in agriculture is from the method of farming, ownership structure of most of the seemingly successful agric ventures, low crop yield and the source of funding the sector. The unsettling news about the boom in rice production is that most of the big rice farms are owned and operated by state governments. Very few in the private sector are involved in big time rice farming. Lagos State government produces Lake Rice in collaboration with Kebbi state government. It is also building a giant rice mill.
Ogun State is working out a similar venture with another northern state government. What is probably the largest rice seedling facility in the country is being built by the Cross River State government.The danger with government’s ownership of the rice farms is that the three tiers of governments in Nigeria are very bad businessmen. Successive governments often pursue different programmes to the detriment of what their predecessors started. A classic example of that is the Obudu Ranch Hotel in Cross River State which the administration of Donald Duke developed with N10 billion loan.Duke developed the ranch to international standards.The only cable car in Nigeria was installed in the ranch. Today Obudu Ranch is a shadow of itself. Duke’s successors apparently did not share his idea.They left the ranch to deteriorate. Even the cable car has been grounded. A similar thing could happen to the rice farms and mills now spear-heading Nigeria’s campaign for selfsufficiency in food production. Successive administrations might abandon the farms or mismanage them to the extent that they could no longer be sustained. The ultimate is for the private sector to be involved in the massive food production process. The federal government agricultural development programme is largely tailored to support the micro-farmer with small loans of about N1.2 million per beneficiary. The target is the funding of 100,000 farmers in each state. They would each cultivate about five hectares of land.The federal government hopes to create millions of jobs from that venture while it also tackles the nation’s food security problem. If it is well managed and implemented religiously, government could kill two birds with one stone from the scheme.However, Nigeria’s food insecurity could only be tackled when the private sector is empowered to embark upon massive mechanised farming. Many banks would not touch Nigeria’s large scale farmers with a 10-foot pole because the high risk in the business makes them endangered fund seekers. Investors in Europe and the United States are eager to invest in Nigeria’s agricultural sector. Ironically, Nigerian farmers are not approaching the foreign investors with feasible investment packages. A foreign investor with an investment portfolio of $300 million would not listen to a request for $500, 000 from a Nigerian farmer. The cost of monitoring an investment of $500, 000 might be the same as that for monitoring an investment of $10 million. Foreign investors prefer big ticket projects which Nigerian farmers are not well groomed for.The next problem is the high cost of production and low crop yield in Nigeria’s agric sector. Production cost in Nigeria’s agric sector is so high that Thai rice farmers would pay high cost of freight and 70 per cent tariff and still enter the Nigerian market with their rice competing favourably with Nigerian rice.The high cost of production is a factor of the primitive method of farming that accounts for 60 per cent of the food produced in the country. The nations that feed Nigeria with rice, palm oil and chicken all depend heavily on mechanized farming.Nigerian farmers still depend on climbers to harvest palm fruits on trees some 50 feet into the sky. Malaysian farmers use mechanical devices that allow the operator to harvest palm fruits from the ground.The cost of an egg has surged from N30 to N50 because we import the yellow corn used for blending chicken feeds.These and the high cost of funds are issues government must address to sustain the boom in agriculture https://www.blueprint.ng/danger-governments-domination-rice-production-jerry-uwah/
The Association of Ghana Industries is kicking against the African free trade agreement : 12.06.2018
AGI explains that imports from Africa would not be liable to duties and it is therefore questioning the Ghanaian parliament for swiftly approving the agreement.

The ratification of the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (CFTA) by Ghana will expose the country to a flood of foreign goods from other African countries says the Association of Ghana Industries (AGI). AGI explains that imports from Africa would not be liable to duties and it is therefore questioning the Ghanaian parliament for swiftly approving the agreement. ―Every revenue Ghana is getting from imports from Africa is going to be eroded, because importers could bring in anything to Ghana. Even if they are made in Europe, you just take them to any African country and bring them to Ghana to avoid the payment of duties,‖ it declared. Reduced revenues Last Thursday, Trades Union Congress (TUC) organized a breakfast meeting in Accra. Dr Yaw Adu-Gyamfi, the president of the AGI, said, ―We know the white people are smart in bringing goods through other African nations, and that is what is going to happen to Ghana. ―Even the small revenue the government is making is going to reduce as soon as the 22 African countries ratify the CFTA,‖ he appended.
This meeting empowered representatives from the TUC, Ghana Employers’ Associations (GEA), AGI and the Ghana Chamber of Mines to analyse ways labour and the private sector can form bipartite relations to address unemployment and the poor quality of existing jobs in Ghana. Nigerian lessons Dr Adu-Gyamfi says Nigeria, a country with a population of more than 180 million, refused to ratify the agreement and rather blocked its market to imports of foreign goods such as rice and fruit juices, a measure that had led to the closure of nine rice factories in Thailand. This situation he believes Ghana could take a cue from. ―The Nigerian government insists that those who want to import rice must find their own dollars to bring in rice to Nigeria and as a result, 95 per cent of rice eaten in Nigeria is home-grown.‖ Cut dependence on IMF TUC Secretary-General, Dr Yaw Baah, mentioned the union’s call for Ghana to end its dependence on the International Monetary Fund (IMF), which he blamed for contributing to the economic woes of the country. Dr Yaw Baah called on industry and labour to join forces to help Ghana end IMF programme, pointing out that until ―we show our muscle together to get IMF out, the IMF officials are the only people our government will listen to and not the private sector, which is the engine of growth.‖ http://www.pulse.com.gh/bi/politics/agi-kicks-against-the-african-free-trade-agreement-id8487360.html
EALA MP, activists ask regional states to cut wheat, rice imports

In Summary
Mr Audax Rukonge, the Agricultural Non-state actors’ forum, a Tanzanian based organisation said the region should impose high tariffs on every food imports to stimulate both production and productivity of those food varieties that are being imported.
The sector contribution to the regional GDP is however consistently declining in performance and actual value. By PAUL TAJUBA
NAIROBI: The East African Legislative Assembly (EALA), has asked regional states to reduce wheat and rice imports and instead facilitate small scale farmers to produce the said crops for the region and export. Terming the current imports of wheat and rice as ―shaming and a recipe for recolonisation,‖ Mr Mathias Kasamba, Uganda’s EALA representative who doubles as chair of the regional body’s committee on agriculture, tourism and natural resources, said food imports should be tackled urgently.
―We are being re-colonised; this time by food imports. The more we import, the more we are giving out our jobs, and the more we are dependent on others countries to feed our growing population,‖ Mr Kasamba said in the Kenyan capital Nairobi at East African farmers’ summit. The summit run under the theme: ―Promoting an Inclusive, People Centred EAC Budget Process: Incentives for Prudent Public and Private Investment in Agriculture‖ and farmers and farmers’ organisations presented their grievances to EALA Parliament. It was supported by ActionAid among other organisations. ―The money being used to import wheat or rice should be used to help our farmers produce locally. There are currently high rice and wheat yielding varieties that our governments can promote to increase production,‖ he added. Available figures indicate that Uganda imports 95 per cent of wheat for food, which costs up to $121m annually. The country, the National Agricultural Research Organisation scientists say, has potential to produce wheat in West Nile, Mt Elgon, in the south-west and parts of northern region. Kenya imports two-thirds of wheat imports to meet the annual consumption of 900,000 tonnes against the local production of 350,000. Other EAC member states also import large quantities of the rice and wheat imports. Ms Agnes Kirabo, the executive director of Food Rights Alliance, a civil society organisation in Uganda said none of the EAC members have committed to 10 per cent of their budget to the agriculture sector and the result has been millions of citizens going hungry, suffering from malnutrition and poverty. ―Food imports are increasing to meet food needs and this curtails the transformation of the sector [agricultural] and development. We need to support our local farmers to produce‖ Ms Kirabo said. She added that there is little intra-trade among the EAC that would guarantee good prices whenever there is over supply in some countries.
Mr Audax Rukonge, the Agricultural Non-state actors’ forum, a Tanzanian based organisation said the region should impose high tariffs on every food imports to stimulate both production and productivity of those food varieties that are being imported. ―Why do we continue to import these things [food] yet we are producing them here? I know importing a choice but we can high tariffs on those imports,‖ Mr Rukonge said. Mr Jean Baptiste Havugimana, the EAC director productive sectors said: ―Why should we import maize from Mexico yet Uganda has? Why should we import wheat yet Tanzania is producing or matooke yet Uganda and Rwanda are producing them?‖ East Africa is largely rural based and natural resource dependent, with about 80 per cent residents deriving their livelihoods from agriculture. The sector contribution to the regional GDP is however consistently declining in performance and actual value. In 2015, the sector contribution to GDP declined by 34 per cent in Burundi, 29 per cent in Kenya, 32 per cent in Rwanda, 25 per cent in Tanzania and 23 per cent in Uganda. This sort of decline reflects high poverty levels in the region that were reported at 46.6 per cent. http://www.monitor.co.ug/News/National/EALA-MP-activists-ask-regional-states-cut-wheat-riceimports/688334-4608624-aeoopv/index.html
Stop Granting Too Many Rice Import Permit’ – Civil Society Group Admonishes Commerce Ministry By Admin Last updated Jun 13, 2018
Monrovia – A civil society organization, the National Progressive Movement of Liberia (NPM), is calling on the Ministry of Commerce to apply due diligence in the issuance of rice import permit. ―We are calling on the government of Liberia through the Ministry of Commerce to properly assess the financial potential of those desiring to import rice in Liberia,‖ National Progressive Movement Executive Director Prince Siryon said. The group says its attention has been drawn to the growing number of business people expressing interest in obtaining permit for the importation of rice. ―While we cherish competition for the importation of basic commodities on the Liberian market, it is important to note that the government must take due care in granting permission,‖ Siryon said.
Siryon said, rice is a political commodity and do have a national security implication, it would be risky for the government to gamble by just granting anybody the right to import rice. The NPM Executive Director added that Ministry of Commerce needs to ensure that business people who are given import permit have the financial capability and are able to maintain a constant supply of rice on the market. The Minister of Commerce Wilson Tarpeh acknowledged that more business people are applying for permit to import rice. The Commerce Minister said, they will ensure those who are given the right to import are ready and equipped to execute such task. Prof. Tarpeh assured the public that the Ministry will ensure that the commodity is on the market adding strong guidelines will be necessary to maintain constant supply. The NPM said that the move of persons posing to engage in the rice importation might cause the current importers to drop the quantity of rice been imported. NPM furthers that if current importers drop in their importation and those the government wants to import rice failed, adding that might worsen the current economic condition of the country. ―We would like to underscore that given that this government is new and in its formative stage couple with current economic situation.‖ NPM is calling on the government to rethink its decision and cease granting permission to people for the importation of rice into Liberia. ―This is in no way trying to stop business people from venturing into the importation of rice but if care not taken we might result to late 70s.
NPM wants the government to cancel all permission that may have been granted to individuals who weren’t properly check for the importation of rice on the Liberian market. Siryon said the current importers over the past twelve years, have proven that they can regularly supply the Liberian market and are doing everything to support the President’s Pro-Poor agenda. ―Opening a flood gate for people to import rice without properly evaluating their financial standing, will have a serious impact on government revenue generation,‖ Siryon added. National Progressive Movement of Liberia notes that if President George Weah does not timely address this situation adding that NPM foresee shortage of rice on the market thus leaving those potential business people to divert their course of business to different sector. https://frontpageafricaonline.com/business/stop-granting-too-many-rice-import-permit-civil-societygroup-admonishes-commerce-ministry/
8,000 tons of rice stuck at Hili port Halim Al Raji, Hili
Published at 08:58 pm June 12th, 2018 Last updated at 09:16 pm June 12th, 2018
Indian truck drivers passing idle time as the rice their vehicles are carrying is still awai ting release from Hili Land Port Dhaka Tribune
The rice importers have already sent letters to National Board of Revenue (NBR) and customs authorities, urging them to reinstate the previous tax rate so that they can release their products
Around 8,000 tons of rice are waiting to be released from Hili Land Port for the past week.
Rice importers in Hili port of Dinajpur are not discharging their imported goods, to avoid loss, as a result of an excessive hike in tax rate. In the proposed national budget of fiscal year (FY) of 2018-2019, import tax of rice has been increased from 2% to 28%, which is causing the importers to release their products that have been already imported, in the increased tax rate. The importers have already sent letters to National Board of Revenue (NBR) and customs authorities, urging them to reinstate the previous tax rate so, that they can release their products. Otherwise, they will have to go to court. Hili port authorities have said on June 4, 1,062 tons of rice were imported on 29 trucks; on June 5, 3,848 tons were imported on 109 trucks; on June 6 8,380 tons on 238 trucks and on June 7, only 175 tons on five trucks were imported.
Before two days of the budget proposal on June 7, 12,000 tons of rice were imported but only 4,000 were released at the previous 2% tax rate and 8,000 tons are still stuck.
8,000 tons of rice are waiting to be released from Hili land port | Dhaka Tribune Rice importers Mamurur Rashid Lebu and Harunur Rashid Harun said due to the statement of Commerce Minister Tofail Ahmed on June 4, he said the tax of imported rice will be increased to 28% so that local farmers are not affected financially. Due to this reason, rice importers with issued letter of credit (LCs) started to stock huge quantity of rice on June 5 and 6 at the port.But, after completing all the formalities of import tax, when the importers went to submit the bill of lading, they were informed that the customs server was out of order as a result the goods could not be released on June 6 and 7. Only 4,000 tons of rice were released on budget day till 3pm as the bill of lading of those goods were already submitted.All the rice that has been stuck in the port, were imported before the budget proposal.
The importers were unable to release their goods because of the fault of the customs server, and they do not want to release the rice at the hiked rate of 28%. Instead, they applied to NBR and other customs authorities to reinstate the previous 2% tax rate, else they will go to court.Mushfiqur Rahman Chowdhury, a costs and freight (C and F) agent said they did not receive any guidance of the government’s proposed budget about the hike of tax rate, also there were no notices issued about unavailability of the customs server, but every year the authority issues such notice. Meanwhile, 215 truck drivers, carrying the rice from India are already in trouble as they ran out of money for food, having been waiting in line for the last week. They fear, the rice will be damaged if they still remain stuck during the Eid holidays. Deputy Commissioner of Hili Land Port Rezvi Ahmed said all the procedures are controlled, processed and monitored by NBR through a server and they have no authority over this. All the customs houses in the country run in the exact manner.He said the server was getting an update on June 6. He also said: ―The sever has been opened on June 7 afternoon, the ones who want to release their rice have to pay the new imposed 28% rate of tax, instead of previous 2%.‖ https://www.dhakatribune.com/business/commerce/2018/06/12/8-000-tons-of-rice-stuck-at-hili-port
Bernas defends rice import monopoly, welcomes govt reviewWednesday, June 13th, 2018 at , Business | News By DASHVEENJIT KAUR / Graphic By TMR Padiberas Nasional Bhd (Bernas) defended the single monopoly system for rice imports, but said it is willing to cooperate for a policy review with the government on the matter. CEO Ismail Mohamed Yusof said the system, which Bernas has a monopoly on, has never failed the consumers and 150,000 local paddy farmers. ―The nation has faced shortages in other food, but until now there has been no issue with the supply and demand of rice.
―We always have supplies of rice in the market, while our rice is among the cheapest in the region,‖ he told reporters after a meeting with the Council of Eminent Persons at Ilham Tower, Kuala Lumpur, yesterday. Thus, Ismail said the government should maintain the system considering its track record. ―If the supplying of rice is open to everyone and imports exceeds, local producers cannot sell their paddy,‖ he added. ―Nevertheless, we are willing to cooperate if the government wants to review the present system for the best interests of all parties,‖ Ismail said
. Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Minister Salahuddin Ayub announced last week that Bernas’ monopoly to import rice has been terminated.Salahuddin said a working paper on the matter will be drafted before it is submitted to the Cabinet for further action. The minister has assured that the government is not planning to shut down Bernas, but the breaking of monopoly is aimed ―to protect the interests of local paddy farmers‖. Commenting on this, Ismail said the public has only scrutinised the monopoly aspect of the rice import system, but not the company’s social obligations over the years. ―All these years, we have always supported farmers as paddy has been the only commodity that has a buyback guarantee from the government,‖ he said, explaining that when the produce is infected, the government would still buy from farmers.―We also take the profit from the sole rice import, besides subsidising local rice. These are our social obligations that went unspoken,‖ he said.
Bernas currently owns about 28 out of 180 mills, where between 650,000 metric tonnes and 800,000 metric tonnes of rice are imported into the country per annum. ―About 60% of the rice supply is local—so if you ask if it can get any cheaper, it means you are talking about lower income for farmers,‖ he said.

Ministry unveils new fund to support non-rice crop production Chea Vannak / Khmer Times Share:
A local farmer waters his crops. KT/Chor Sokunthea
The Ministry of Economy and Finance yesterday launched a new $2-million fund to increase small farmers’ access to credit.The money will be made available to support the production of agricultural goods other than rice, and will be disbursed by the Rural Development Bank (RBD).
The move follows similar initiatives by the government in recent years. There are two other special funds to support the local agriculture sector. One, consisting of $50 million, seeks to help rice millers buy paddy rice from farmers. The second makes $15 million available for rice millers to build silos and warehouses to store rice in the provinces of Battambang, Kampong Thom, Prey Veng and Takeo. According to Kao Thach, director of RBD, the minimum amount that can be borrowed through the new fund is $20,000, with farmers being able to apply for a maximum of $100,000. The money will not be accessible to individual farmers, but only to agricultural communities, said Mr Thach, who explained that if farmers want to take out a loan, they will have to join an existing agricultural community or form a new one. ―Right now, we are just at the testing phase of the programme. Our hope is that the fund will help small farmers boost production of healthy vegetables and meat,‖ he said, adding that this is the first time that this type of funding has been made available to small farmers that specialise on crops other than rice. He said interest rates will be lower than those of loans offered by commercial banks and microfinance institutions, and pointed out that RBD will help borrowers find buyers for their products. Mr Thach cited concerns over the safety of imported vegetables as one of the main motivations to establish the new fund. ―The programme seeks to capitalise on market demands for healthy food. People now are thinking seriously about their health.‖ Song Saran, CEO of Amru Rice, a firm currently working with more than 50 agricultural communities through contract farming schemes, said the fund is a sound initiative to boost local vegetable and meat production. ―It is a good move and will help farmers increase production and reduce our reliance on imported goods,‖ he said. ―It will not only boost farmers’ livelihoods; it will also help increase production of vegetables and meat.‖ RBD’s Mr Thach said that under the new programme, maturity dates will vary depending on the purpose of the loan – loans used for longer term investment will need to be repaid over a 5-year period, while those used to increase working capital will have a maturity of just one year. Last week, the German Cooperative and Raiffeisen Confederation (DGRV), a federation of German cooperatives, pledged to continue its support of local agricultural cooperatives for three more years. DGRV’s work focuses on boosting and
developing agricultural communities as well as establishing contract farming schemes that ensure the prices of agricultural commodities remain stable. https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50500141/ministry-unveils-new-fund-to-support-non-rice-cropproduction/
