News Detail… SW junior named finalist in International BioGENEius Challenge Preeti Krishnamani takes on one of the world's most pressing food-security issues. Preeti Krishnamani, a junior at Charter School of Wilmington, is one of only 15 finalists from the U.S., Canada and Germany selected for the International BioGENEius Challenge, recognizing outstanding research by high-school students in biotechnology. She will showcase her research at BIO 2018, which begins June 4, 2018.

Krishnamani‟s project is titled “Effects of Silicon Amendments on the Concentration and Adsorption Properties of Iron-Oxides in Paddy Soils.” To put it simply, her research aims to reduce poisonous contamination of the world‟s rice supply.

Or, in her words:

Arsenic contamination in rice plants threatens food security and human health worldwide. While scientists discovered that incorporating silicon in soil decreases arsenic uptake directly, the effects of silicon on iron-oxide minerals that control arsenic cycling in the soil−rice nexus have not been studied. My research investigates how different silicon-rich materials (amendments), specifically rice residues like rice husk and rice husk ash, impact the formation of iron-oxides and alter their arsenic adsorption properties.

“I feel honored to represent Delaware in the International BioGENEius Challenge,” said Krishnamani. “When I first learned about this issue after attending a seminar my mentor gave at UD last spring, I was shocked, yet compelled. As an Indian-American, rice is a very important part of my culture and lifestyle, so I knew I wanted to get involved in some way and become a part of the solution.”

Krishnamani‟s involvement with STEM goes back to her early childhood. “My love and obsession for Legos is what got me excited about STEM,” she said. “Through elementary and middle school, I loved building and coding robots for FIRST Lego League (FLL) competitions.

… I remember the first year I participated, the theme was „Food Factor‟ (food contamination). This is what got me thinking actively about the issues that I am working to solve today.”

Her mentor, Dr. Angelia Seyfferth of the University of Delaware‟s College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, provided Krishnamani the opportunity to join her lab. “It allowed me to delve into a problem to which I have a special connection, and work across scientific disciplines to create a positive, sustainable impact on society,” she said.

In addition to STEM, Krishnamani has an interest in business, both of which shape her plans for the future. “In my vision to bridge the gap between science and management, I see myself blending my passions for materials science and business in the future, to serve my community through meaningful innovation,” she said. When does gene editing go too far? https://technical.ly/delaware/2018/05/21/preeti-krishnamanicsw-biogeneius-challenge/

Crawfish on Capitol Hill, All the Way from Louisiana By Lesley Dixon WASHINGTON, DC -- Crawfish lovers gathered at the Capitol Hill Club last Wednesday night to savor authentic Louisiana cuisine at "Crawfish on Capitol Hill," an annual event that promotes Louisiana-style camaraderie and food culture in D.C. The evening of Cajun food, music, and good company was sponsored by the Louisiana Rice Growers Association and USA Rice, and organized by Glen Johnston, managing partner of Presidio Strategic Partners, to honor Roger F. Villere, the longest-serving chairman of the Louisiana state Republican party.

The little red distinguished guests, feistily brandishing their claws, arrived on Capitol Hill after a two-day road trip from Abbeville, Louisiana, where the dinner's caterers Pro Boil are based. Allen and Erin McLain, the husbandand-wife team behind Pro Boil, have catered similar crawfish events in D.C. before, but this is the first year they've worked with "Crawfish on Capitol Hill."

Louisiana-grown rice featured prominently in the event's raffle prizes and party favors, as well as the lagniappe appetizer bar, which included gumbo, dirty rice, and red beans and rice. Lagniappe

is a creole word that means "extra," as in a gift or a bonus. "Whatever you've got around, throw it in," said Allen, who is a recent graduate of the USA Rice Leadership Development Program.

What they had around was plump potatoes, tender corn on the cob, savory sausage, and some of the biggest crawfish this town has ever seen, hand-delivered from Louisiana.

Southerners and Louisianans in D.C. look forward to these kinds of crawfish boils, as they are the only place in town to get good, fresh, authentic Cajun food. "At home we can just dump everything out straight onto a table," said Allen, but at the Capitol Hill Club, etiquette required the freshly boiled crawfish to be served neatly on trays.

That didn't slow down the guests, though - politicians, restaurateurs, and LSU football fans donned bibs and got cracking.

"This event is a great showcase for U.S. rice," said Betsy Ward, president and CEO of USA Rice, who attended the dinner alongside other USA Rice staff. "It's wonderful to see so many people from Louisiana connecting in D.C. over shared culinary history, and rice is an integral part of that cuisine."

"When thinking of serving the most authentic red beans and rice possible, I knew that I'd have to have Louisiana-grown rice," Johnston concurred. "I'm originally from Louisiana but now live in the Washington, D.C. area. Even at home, I get Louisiana rice shipped to me. There is a specific taste and quality to it, and it matches the coffee and chicory in my kitchen cabinets."

Other attendees of the crawfish boil included Congressman Clay Higgins (R-LA), and celebrity chef David Guas, host of the television show American Grilled and the owner of Bayou Bakery, a New Orleans-inspired restaurant in Arlington, Virginia.

Sindh getting 50pc less water as against last year‟s supplies Mohammad Hussain KhanUpdated May 21, 2018

HYDERABAD: Sindh is getting 50pc less water than what it received during the corresponding period last year at Guddu barrage upstream, the first barrage on Indus after the river enters the province, dealing a serious blow to cultivation of Kharif season crops of rice and cotton. All right bank non-perennial canals of three barrages are now to getting water for crops but due to acute water scarcity, irrigation authorities could release water into the canals only for drinking purposes. Non-perennial canals of Guddu and Sukkur barrages were to be provided water for Kharif from May 15 but given available flows, irrigation authorities would only provide water to Sukkur barrage‟s right bank canals of North Western, Dadu and Rice canals and Guddu‟s Begari Feeder. As per Water Apportionment Accord 1991 Guddu barrage is having 67pc less water, Sukkur 42pc and Kotri 66pc less.

Acute water shortage deals serious blow to cultivation of Kharif crops Sukkur barrage‟s left bank canals of Nara and Rohri are getting somewhat better water flows and Kotri barrage‟s Kalri Baghar (KB) feeder is receiving reasonable flows for meeting Karachi‟s water needs. KB feeder feeds Keenjhar lake from where Karachi gets water. On May 18 last year Guddu barrage received 72,286 cusecs against 38,620 cusecs the same day this year. Canals‟ withdrawal figures of Guddu barrage show it is getting 67pc less water than its

allocated share and likewise Sukkur barrage is getting 49.8pc less water as compared to its allocation for May. “Last year in May the situation was much better. And this trend of shortage this year is likely to continue over the days to come,” said an irrigation official. Kotri barrage is the most affected as it bears 66pc water shortage in its four canals, three on left and one on right side, currently. “We are mainly releasing water for drinking purposes in four canals of Kotri barrage,” said newly appointed Kotri barrage chief engineer Shafqat Wadhu. He said that level of Keenjhar lake whose designed discharge was 9,000 cusecs had improved over the last few days and now it was being provided around 2,100 cusecs to meet drinking water needs. Share of non-perennial canals of Guddu and Sukkur barrages gets due on May 15. Begari Feeder is still closed. However, its left bank canal — Ghotki Feeder — which is to get 6,000 cusecs, is being provided 2,000 cusecs only. Similarly, Sukkur barrage‟s right bank canals — North Western, Rice and Dadu — are getting 1400 cusecs, 400 cusecs and 1150 cusecs against allocation of 6000, 4000 and 5000 cusecs, respectively. “Indus River System Authority‟s advisory committee had earlier predicted 31pc shortage in Kharif but it was revised to 42pc. We believe that we will be having 50pc shortage of water at the end of the day in view of present water flows,” said an irrigation official. The persistent water shortage has badly affected cotton sowing in Sindh as only 22 per cent area has been brought under cultivation so far against a target of 620,000 hectares. Last year‟s cotton sowing target was 650,000 hectares. Sindh Chamber of Agriculture general secretary Zahid Bhurgari claimed that only 35pc cotton was sown in lower Sindh areas and that too with the help of tube-wells.

PhilRice: Tech will lessen Train’s impact on farmers BY EIREENE JAIREE GOMEZ ON MAY 21, 2018BUSINESS

THERE are technologies in place to lessen the impact of Republic Act 10963, or the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (Train) Act, on Filipino rice farmers, which saw their income reduced after its implementation, the Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) said.

According to the agency, Train-imposed excise taxes on fuel caused the decrease. “Train increased the production cost of pump-dependent farmers by 50 centavos for every kilogram of palay (unhusked rice) produced, which diminished their income by 10 percent,” PhilRice said. Since Train‟s implementation, fuel cost—which accounts for 30 percent of production cost—has risen by P2,014 per hectare, it added.PhilRice data show that farmers‟ current fuel cost is P15,876 per ha., a 14.5-percent increase from the pre-Train P13,862 per ha. A typical farmer uses 397 liters of fuel per ha., from land preparation until harvesting, while “mechanized” farmers consume 413 l/ ha. This results in a difference of 16 l/ha, adding between P600 and P1,000 to the cost. To offset the increase, PhilRice Executive Director Sailila E. Abdula said yield-enhancing technologies, including machines, water management, and rice varieties, were available for farmers to use. One is the combine harvester, which Abdula said gets the farmers “an additional net income of P6,000, which comes from the savings [they]obtained from the reduced labor cost in harvesting, threshing, and using sacks and twine.” Another is the so-called four-in-one machine, from which farmers earn P3,527 more, as it reduces postharvest losses from manual harvesting, axial-flow threshing, and piling. To further save on fuel, PhilRice is also promoting rice hull, a farm waste common in rural communities, in powering water pumps; and water pump gasifier, which burns rice hull as fuel. These will give farmers irrigation savings of 30 percent to 40 percent every season. Alternate wetting and drying technology, or irrigating fields a few days after the water level has dropped to about 15 centimeters below the soil‟s surface, is another pratice that gives 16 percent-to35 percent savings without decreasing yield.Meanwhile, farmer Rolando San Gabriel of the Science City of Muñoz, Nueva Ecija province advised growers to plant high-yielding rice varieties to cope with Train‟s impact. “We cannot control the prices, but we are in control of our farming practices,” San Gabriel said.“We must have a target yield per cropping season and see how we can cut down on the cost. We can start with our choice of rice varieties,” he added. “I will still farm despite the cost adjustments. With the right strategies, farmers can survive Train,” the farmer said. http://www.manilatimes.net/philrice-tech-will-lessen-trains-impact-on-farmers/400151/

Farmers affected by TRAIN law told to tap technology 8

By BusinessMirror May 20, 2018 The Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) said farmers can turn to technological innovations to cope with the increase in production cost due to the implementation of the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) law. PhilRice Executive Director Sailila E. Abdula said yield-enhancing technologies, such as machines, water management and seed varieties, are easily available to rice growers to help offset the P0.50 hike in the production cost of pump-dependent farmers. The TRAIN law directly affected farmers due to its provision on higher specific tax on petroleum products, which was last increased in 1997, the PhilRice said in a statement. Data from the PhilRice showed that a typical farmer uses 397 liters per hectare of fuel from land preparation until harvesting while the more mechanized farmer consumes 413 l/ha. Abdula said the increase in cost can be offset by using the combine harvester alone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By using combine harvester, farmer gets an additional net income of P6,000, which came from the savings he obtained from reduced labor cost in harvesting, threshing, and using sacks and twine,â&#x20AC;? Adbula added. The PhilRice chief also said farmers earn P3,527 more from the 4-in-1 machine, as it reduces postharvest losses from manual harvesting, axial-flow threshing and piling. To further save on fuel, PhilRice promotes the use of rice hull, a common farm waste in rural communities, in powering up water pump. Rice hull gasifier pump system, a water pump gasifier that burns rice hull as fuel, can help farmers save 30 percent to 40 percent on irrigation cost per season. Alternate wetting and drying technology, or irrigating the field few days after water level has dropped to about 15 centimeters below the surface of the soil, is also an easy farm practice which can result in savings of up to 35 percent in irrigation cost without cutting yield.

Farmer Rolando San Gabriel of Maligaya, Science City of Muñoz, Nueva Ecija said in a statement that his fellow crop growers can cope with the TRAIN law by planting rice varieties that yield more harvest. “We cannot control the prices, but we are in control of our farming practices. We must have a target yield per cropping season and see how we can cut down on the cost. We can start with our choice of rice varieties,” San Gabriel said. San Gabriel added he planted NSIC Rc402, which has a maximum yield of 14 tons per hectare and matures in 114 days. High-yielding varieties that can produce an additional yield of 105 kilograms per hectare are available in PhilRice stations and seed centers. San Gabriel said he will reduce his operational costs come planting season through dry plowing during land preparation and implementing just two of the usual three harrowing. He added he will also reduce his nitrogen application. “I will still farm despite cost adjustments. With right strategies, farmers can survive the TRAIN law,” he said. https://businessmirror.com.ph/farmers-affected-by-train-law-told-to-tap-technology/

State subsidies accelerate in Q1 May 20, 2018, 10:00 PM By Chino S. Leyco State subsidies to government-owned and -controlled corporations (GOCCs) in the first quarter amounted to P45.29 billion, more than double the first three months in 2017, owing to health insurance benefits for indigent Filipinos, irrigation program, and the jeepney modernization project.Data from the Bureau of the Treasury showed that government subsidies to state-run companies amounted to P45.29 billion in January to March this year, up by 130 percent compared with P19.66 billion in the same period last year. Of the total subsidies, about 33.46 percent went to the Philippine Health Insurance Corp., commonly known as PhilHealth, which is equivalent to P15.2 billion. PhilHealth, which is mandated to provide adequate and affordable social health insurance coverage for all Filipinos, receives regular financial aid from the government to settle the insurance premiums for indigent individuals identified by the Department of Social Welfare and Development. Another recipient of government financial support was the Land Bank of the Philippines, which received P12.3 billion in the first quarter, or 27.16 percent of the total subsidy disbursements of the treasury bureau. The subsidy given to Land Bank will be used to fund the lenderâ&#x20AC;&#x;s credit facility for a program that will help drivers and operators replace all 15 years old and above public utility jeepneys (PUJs) with modern public transport. Meanwhile, the National Irrigation Administration cornered 18.41 percent of the total subsidies at end-March, amounting to P8.34 billion. The monetary aid given to NIA will be used to fund the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x;s free irrigation program. In January last year, President Rodrigo R. Duterte stopped the NIA, an agency responsible for irrigation development in the country, from collecting the Irrigation Service Fee (ISF) from farmers. Aside from the three GOCCs, the government also gave subsidies to the National Food Authority with P1.8 billion, National Development Co. with P1.5 billion, Power Sector Assets & Liabilities Management Corp. with P1.48 billion and Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority with P1.45 billion.

The National Electrification Administration (P653 million), Social Housing Finance Corp. (P612 million), Small Business Corp. (P442 million), National Power Corp. (P224 million), and the Philippine Children Medical Center (P222 million) also received finance support from the Treasury. Other GOCCs include the Philippine Heart Center (P232 million), Philippine Rice Research Institute (P185 million), National Kidney and Transplant Institute (P147 million and the Cultural Center of the Philippines (P105 million). In the first quarter, the Treasury also gave subsidies to the Light Rail Transit Authority, National Housing Authority, Aurora Pacific Economic Zone and Freeport, Bases Conversion and Development Authority, and Center for International Trade Expositions and Missions. Also included in the list were Lung Center of the Philippines, Philippine Coconut Authority, Philippine Fisheries Development Authority, Philippine Institute for Development Studies, and Philippine Institute of Traditional and Alternative Health Care. Lastly, Peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x;s Television Network, Inc., Southern Philippines Development Authority, and Zamboanga City Special Economic Zone Authority received subsidies from the national government in the first quarter of the year. For 2018, the national government earmarked a record P162.55 billion in financial aid for GOCCs and government financial institutions (GFIs), up by 24 percent compared with the projected P131.09-billion disbursements last year. https://business.mb.com.ph/2018/05/20/state-subsidies-accelerate-in-q1/

Palawan to produce hybrid seeds Louise Maureen Simeon (The Philippine Star) - May 21, 2018 - 12:00am

Public hybrid rice will soon be available for Palawan farmers following a recent intensive training attended by the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x;s agricultural workers. Andy G. Zapata Jr.

MANILA, Philippines — The province of Palawan is gearing up for the production of hybrid rice seeds in a bid to improve output in the area.Public hybrid rice will soon be available for Palawan farmers following a recent intensive training attended by the province‟s agricultural workers. Rice program project officer Marlon Montero said hybrid rice seeds in Palawan are being sourced from regions particularly Davao. “There is a risk in procuring the seeds away from Palawan knowing that this can negatively affect the germination rate. With our current efforts, we may no longer need to buy seeds from other regions in the coming years,” he added. Palawan targets to expand up to 1000 hectares of public hybrid rice production in the next planting seasons. It is now conducting training for 40 agricultural extension workers and project implementers on hybrid seed production focusing on field and crop establishment and seed technology. The Department of Agriculture-Philippine Rice Research Institute said the training aims to

ensure the high purity of seeds to be produced and that best management practices are adopted to

achieve the highest potential yield of hybrid. Public hybrid variety Mestizo 1 has an average yield of 5.4 metric tons per hectare up to 9.9 MT/ha and is highly recommended nationwide for its good eating quality and aroma. Another variety Mestizo 20 can thrive in the most climatic types in the country and can yield from 6.4 MT/ha to 11.7 MT/ha. The series of training is in support to the provincial government‟s rice program, which provides hybrid seeds and farm inputs to about 400 farmer beneficiaries. Refresher courses on seed quality assessment, seed certification, laboratory and field requirements and procedures were also discussed to seed inspectors. https://www.philstar.com/business/2018/05/21/1817047/palawan-produce-hybrid-seeds

As Asians get rich and healthy, 'smart crops' replace rice on future menus Rina Chandran

TAIPEI (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Lunchtime in Taipei‟s Ximending district is a test of wills and patience as tourists and locals jostle at restaurants and street stalls to choose from steamed and fried dumplings, flat and thin noodles, stuffed pancakes, grills and desserts. Street vendors in Bangkok, Thailand where urbanisation, rising incomes and concerns about health are driving a move towards more protein-rich alternatives to the staple food, rice. May 10, 2018. Thomson Reuters Foundation\\Rina Chandran In this foodie haven, one item makes only an occasional appearance on menus and on plates rice.Once a staple of Taiwanese diets, rice consumption per person has fallen more than two-

thirds in 50 years, according to the United Nations‟ Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO), as “smart crops” and “super foods” muscle their way onto plates. It is the steepest drop in Asia but a trend across the continent as urbanization, rising incomes, climate change and concerns about health and food supplies drive a push for alternatives for the future such as millets and more protein.“I ate a lot of rice when I was younger but now I eat more vegetables, fish and meat. It‟s healthier,” said Guan-Po Lin, 24, who moved to Taipei for university.“People are spending more on food, and they want to eat healthy, and rice is not seen as a healthy choice.”About 90 percent of global rice production and consumption is in Asia, home to 60 percent of the world‟s population.Yet, as trends in Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and Hong Kong show, consumption is set to drop significantly as diets change.Per capita consumption has fallen about 60 percent in Hong Kong since 1961, and by almost half in Japan. In South Korea, it has slid 41 percent since 1978, FAO data showed.Alongside that the consumption of fish, meat, dairy, fruits and vegetables has risen significantly.Rice will still be the single most important crop in the region, key in diets and a symbol of Asian culture, but it will not be as dominant in coming years as new foods are snapped up, said David Dawe, a senior economist at the FAO in Bangkok.“It is the future for Asia - well-nourished people who can perform better. You cannot get that by filling up on rice; you need more fish, meat, fruits and vegetables,” he said. RITUAL STATUS Rice is said to have first been domesticated in the Yangtze River valley in China more than 10,000 years ago.In Asia, rice was consumed mostly by the wealthy and did not become as ubiquitous until the Green Revolution of the 1960s, when governments introduced higher yielding seeds and better fertilisers to improve output and feed expanding populations. In Taiwan, millets were the staple of indigenous and rural people, and had a higher status in ritual ceremonies than rice.In India, malnutrition is one reason the government is pushing millets which are richer in protein, fiber and micronutrients than rice or wheat, said S.K. Gupta, a principal scientist at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) in Hyderabad.Also millets need less water and can grow in saline soil and withstand warmer climate, crucial factors as temperatures and sea levels rise in South Asia.“Historically, a large section of the population was eating millets and maize, but when they moved to urban areas, they switched to rice and wheat,” Gupta said.“Consumers can be encouraged to go back to millets if they are more readily available, and farmers will grow more if they get better prices. It‟s already happening,” he told the Thomson Reuters Foundation.

CRAFT BEERS The shift away from rice in wealthier Asian nations is explained by Bennett‟s Law, which argues that as income increases people spend proportionately less on starchy staples such as rice, FAO‟s Dawe said.Rice is regarded as inferior when per capita income reaches $2,364 in Asian nations, according to FAO‟s estimates.Changes are already evident in mainland China and some southeast Asian countries, where people are eating a more protein-rich diet with more meat and fish, Dawe said.In the Philippines, one of the world‟s biggest importers of rice, the government has considered substitutes such as corn, banana, sweet potato, cassava, taro and adlai - an heirloom grain also known as Job‟s Tears or Chinese Pearl Barley. At the other end, food companies and chefs are responding to the demand for healthier diets with millets in bread, pasta, even craft beers.“It took some time to get people excited about these lesser known, stereotypically inferior grains like ragi (finger millet), jowar (sorghum) and kodo,” said Thomas Zacharias, chef partner at The Bombay Canteen, among Asia‟s top restaurants.“We showcased them in new and interesting ways that appealed to the current generation, and there‟s definitely been a shift,” said Zacharias, whose barley and jowar salad with a hung curd dressing is a hot favorite of diners in Mumbai. A street vendor in Taipei, Taiwan where urbanisation, rising incomes and concerns about health are driving a move towards more protein-rich alternatives to the staple food, rice. April 11, 2018. Thomson Reuters Foundation\\Rina Chandran Marketing helps. Production of quinoa increased by more than 70 percent from 2000 to 2014 in the top growing countries, according to the FAO, because it was sold as a “super food”. SMALLER FOOTPRINT The FAO promotes rice alternatives as “smart crops” to make them more attractive. It is also promoting aquaculture - farming shrimp, carp and tilapia alongside rice - to help farmers improve incomes while making fish more cheaply available. “Asian farmers will not get rich growing rice on a small farm,” said Kundhavi Kadiresan, FAO‟s Asia representative.“Countries are also starting to take the issues of undernutrition, micronutrient deficiency and obesity seriously. Sticking to rice means that fruits and vegetables are not as easily available and affordable as they could be.”Malnutrition and climate change are also top concerns for rice biologists and breeders, said Rod Wing, a University of Arizona professor who recently completed the genome sequencing of seven wild rice varieties.“Rice feeds the poorest of the poor, and as long as there‟s overpopulation and poverty, people are going to be eating rice,” said Wing, referring to the fact that 60 percent of the world‟s hungry are in the Asia Pacific. “So

it‟s important that we can grow varieties that have a higher nutritional value and a smaller environmental footprint.” For consumers like Lin in Taipei, rice is here to stay.“We may eat less of it, but for my family, no meal is complete without rice,” he said.

Rice farmers observing best growing season in years May 18, 2018 4:38 AM PSTUpdated: May 18, 2018 4:43 AM PST By Josh Meny

CROWLEY, La. -

The hot and dry conditions are affecting this year's rice crop.In the last three years, frequent, extreme rainfall has put a dent in rice production. "We had several hundred acres last year that was lost. And, we lost a lot of rice two years ago from flooding condition when it was actually in the middle of harvest," explained LSU Extension Rice Research Center Specialist for La Dr. Dustin Harrell. Because of the colder weather this year, rice crops in Acadiana were staying dormant. Most recently, the weather changed very quickly from winter to summer. "It's probably the best rice I have seen in many years. And, the low 90's and upward 80's during the day with low cloud cover and the cooler temperatures in the low seventies and uppers seventies is just perfect for growing rice. In fact, some of the best we've had in the last three years," explained Dr. Harrell. One of the negative sides of this weather is that rice farmers will have to pay higher energy bills for running their irrigation pumps more.

"Old generations always said that in the years that we have to pump that will make better crops. We utilize the fertilizer better and we have less disease pressure," said Acadia Parish rice farmer Paul Zaunbrecher. Despite the sunny, dry weather forcing farmers to run their irrigation pumps longer, they say they'll save money if this year turns out to be sunny and warm. "If we're catching all these rains, a lot of times we're forced throw fertilizer into the water. When you throw fertilizer into the water, you decrease your efficiency in the plant taking up the fertilizer," said Zaunbrecher. While rice farmers acknowledge that some rain would be beneficial, they just want it in moderation http://www.katc.com/story/38218857/rice-farmers-observing-best-growing-season-in-years

Feeding the Dragon: Prospects brighten for non-basmati rice exports Millers told to register for facility inspection by Chinese authorities VISHWANATH KULKARNI

In a step towards facilitating exports of rice to China, the Union government has asked the millers to get registered with the Directorate of Plant Protection, Quarantine and Storage (DPPQ&S) under the Agriculture Ministry, so that the registered mills could be approved by the Chinese authorities for exports of the cereal.In a step towards facilitating exports of rice to China, the Union government has asked the millers to get registered with the Directorate of Plant Protection, Quarantine and Storage (DPPQ&S) under the Agriculture Ministry, so that the registered mills could be approved by the Chinese authorities for exports of the cereal.

The Indian exporters, finding it tough to crack the markets in China, the largest importer of rice, have been seeking the government intervention to facilitate shipments of the cereal.

Arrangement terms The Agriculture Ministry is in the process of signing up a protocol with the General Administration of Customs of the People‟s Republic of China in respect of export of the Indian rice — both basmati and non-basmati — to China. The protocol is to ensure that the rice exported from India meets the phyto-sanitary concerns of China, the Agriculture and Processed Food Exports Development Authority (Apeda) said in a note on its website.

Boosting volumes Welcoming the government‟s move, BV Krishna Rao, President, Rice Exporters Association, said it was a step in the right direction and could result in higher volumes. “We have the potential to ship at least two million tonnes rice worth $1 billion to the Chinese market,” Rao said.

India has emerged as the largest exporter of rice since 2011 on rising domestic supplies through improved productivity. As per the third advance estimates, rice production during 201718 is seen scaling a new high of 111.52 million tonnes (mt) against previous year‟s 109.70 mt. Average shipments of non-basmati rice have hovered between 6 and 8 mt and the premium basmati rice around 4 mt in recent years.

Average shipments of non-basmati rice have hovered between 6 and 8 mt and the premium basmati rice around 4 mt in recent years. Though Indian rice is aggressively priced, the Chinese have preferred to buy the cereal from Pakistan, because of the political considerations between the neighbouring nations. The Modi government‟s move to facilitate shipments should open up new markets, while boosting the per unit realisation for the Indian rice exports. Other markets Rao said the Centre should also facilitate exports of the non-basmati rice to countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia and the Philippines, where the private players are finding it difficult to crack these markets. Bulk of India‟s non-basmati rice shipments are aimed at the African nations. In the financial year ended March 2018, India‟s rice shipments stood at a record 12.64 mt valued at ₹49,768 crore. Of this, the non-basmati volumes touched a record 8.63 mt valued at ₹22,927 crore, mainly on higher offtake by Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

VN to host International Conference on Rice Bran Oil 2018 This May, Việt Nam will welcome experts and researchers from 20 countries across five continents to participate in the International Conference on Rice Bran Oil (ICRBO) 2018. The conference will discuss strategies for the promotion of the global rice bran oil production industry. This is the fifth year that the International Association of Rice Bran Oil (IARBO) will

hold an international conference to increase rice bran oil production in its five member countries: Japan, India, China, Thailand and Việt Nam. The event will take place from May 23-25, 2018, with the theme “The world‟s premium healthy oil”. This year‟s conference is expected to gather more than 200 participants, including health professionals, scientists and entrepreneurs, and so on from 20 countries of 5 continents. It will welcome representatives of the largest rice bran oil producing and trading enterprises in the world, such as the Solvent Extractors‟ Association of India; Tsuno Food, Oryza Group (Japan); WilmarGroup (Việt Nam, India and China); Chinese Cereals and Oils Association and the United States Pharmacopeia. The conference will discuss issues such as sharing of technologies and researches as well as marketing benefits of rice bran oil to users.

The International Conference on Rice Bran Oil will be held for the first time in Việt Nam. Rice bran oil is one of the healthiest vegetable oils and is widely used in many countries, such as New Zealand, Australia, Japan, South Korea, India, the United States as well as Europe. The oil is extracted from the rice bran layer within six hours after being separated from rice grains to retain nutritious substances,such as Gamma-Oryzanol, Phytosterol and Vitamin E. According to Business Wire (a US-based media company), the global rice bran oil market has grown by three per centevery year during 2010-2017, yielding 1.5 million tonnes in 2017. Health factors, particularly the balance of fatty acid ratio and the many benefits for the cardiovascular system, have contributed to the growth of the global rice bran oil market. According to Research Gate‟s market research,the potential for rice bran production is 29.3 million tonnes per annum. Rice is grown in at least 114 countries, producing a global output of 645 million tonnes. Up to 70 per cent of the rice can be collected from the milling process, which can serve half of the world‟s population, and eight per cent of rice bran can be used to produce the oil. image:

Oil is refined within six hours after being separated from rice grains. Currently, 90 per cent of the global rice output comes from Asia. The five members of IARBO possess great potential to produce rice bran oil, adding tremendous value to rice plants. India is presently one of the world‟s largest rice producers, accounting for 75 per cent of the global production, followed by China and Japan. In Việt Nam, Wilmar Agro Vietnam Ltd has invested in two rice bran oil extraction plants in the Mekong Delta, with a total extraction capacity of up to 1,200 tonnes per day. This is the largest plant in the country in terms of extraction, providing large quantities of crude oil for domestic and foreign markets. Cái Lân Oils and Fats Industries Company, which owns refined rice bran oil brand Simly, said its refinery required modern machinery and advanced technology to keep intact the nutrition of Gamma-Oryzanol and balance fatty acid groups in rice bran oil. Currently, the company‟s products are mainly exported to Japan, Europe, China and the Middle East as well as partly sold in the domestic market. Established in 2013, IARBO is a non-profit, non-governmental organisation. Its mission is to connect manufacturers, research institutes, universities and consumers to promote the production and consumption of rice bran oil in the world. At this year‟s conference, IARBO will hold the first rice bran oil research competition for students of the participating countries, with a total prize of US$21,000. In addition to in-depth reports, the conference will also set up display booths to showcase rice bran oil-related products.

These tenders have been issued by TCP authorities. The export of sugar to Nigeria will enable sugar mills owners to pay price of sugarcane to the cultivators forthwith besides clearing their outstanding dues. https://nation.com.pk/17-May-2018/pakistan-to-export-rice-sugar-to-nigeria

Rice storage facilities nearly ready for next harvest season Phnom Penh Post Three new rice storage and drying facilities will be ready in July for the upcoming harvest season and will boost the sector‟s capacity and export potential, even as the Ministry of Agriculture claimed the sector still needs more storage space to meet demand. Constructed in Kampong Thom, Prey Veng and Takeo provinces, the facilities each have a capacity of 500,000 tonnes of raw paddy and are able to dry 1,500 tonnes of rice daily. The state-run Rural Development Bank (RDB) provided loans totalling $15 million to two companies, Khmer Food and Amru Rice for the construction of the storage spaces. The move was intended to alleviate stress on farmers and millers when stockpiles grow large during the harvest season. Song Saran, CEO of Amru Rice, said that they received $5 million late last year to build the facility on 25,000 square metres of land in Kampong Thom province. The company also raised $3 million of its own capital to build an additional six warehouses on the plot. “Now we are installing and testing, it will be ready for the next harvesting,” he said, noting that storage is playing an important role in reducing the flow of paddy to neighbouring countries for processing. Kim Savuth, vice president of the Cambodia Rice Federation and CEO of Khmer Food, who received $10 million in RDB loans to build facilities in Prey Veng and Takeo provinces, also claimed that the rice storage and rice drying will be ready for the coming season. “Our rice storage and drying is almost ready at 90 percent in Takeo province while in Prey Veng, it is set to finish as well,” he said. “We plan to handle paddy for the coming season, it will boost exports,” he said, adding that the construction of adequate storage and drying facilities was imperative if Cambodia‟s rice sector hopes to compete internationally on price when dealing with government-to-government bids. Earlier this month, the Ministry of Agriculture launched a rice storage facility funded by the Korean government in Kampong Cham province‟s Bateay district. Costing $2.8 million, the space can dry 80 tonnes per day and store 600 tonnes, said Hean Vanha, a director-general at the Ministry of Agriculture. “It is a solution for the farmer, which means no more concerns about rice storage and the flow of paddy across the border,” he said, “even though our industry still needs more storage and drying capacity to meet the demand of rice production.” Early last year, RDB awarded a $15 million low-interest loan to Thanakea Srov (Kampuchea) Plc, the operator of the Cambodian Rice Bank,

to expand its rice storage warehouse in Battambang province to be finished in 2018. The warehouse is set to be the first privately owned centralised storage facility with a capacity to store 200,000 tonnes of wet paddy rice and to process 3,000 tonnes of paddy rice daily. https://www.phnompenhpost.com/business/rice-storage-facilities-nearly-ready-next-harvestseason

Rice deal with Papua New Guinea on the table Sok Chan / Khmer Times

Cambodian could soon be exporting its world-renowned rice to the Oceanian nation of Papua New Guinea after trade representatives from both countries held negotiations last week. Hean Vanhan, director-general of the General Directorate of Agriculture, and his team of ministry officials on Friday held a meeting with representatives of Papua New Guinea‟s National Agriculture Quarantine and Inspection Agency (Naqia) to work out a rice deal. According to Mr Vanhan, both countries have agreed to ink an agreement on the exportation of Cambodian rice next month. “Negotiations today focused on the quality of Cambodian rice, the amount to be exported, export procedures as well as sanitary and phytosanitary requirements,” Mr Vanhan said. He added that the visiting delegation also wanted to know about rice storage facilities in Cambodia and how the country deals with pests. “They agreed to purchase rice from Cambodia, and we agreed to supply a product of the highest quality,” he said, adding that shipments of the commodity could begin as soon as both parties affix their signatures to the agreement next month. Song Saran, CEO of Amru Rice, told Khmer Times that Papua New Guinea is mostly interested in Cambodia‟s premium rice, particularly Phka Romdoul. He said the country, who already imports from Thailand and other countries in the region, demands between 300,000 to 400,000 tonnes of rice per year. “They don‟t care about the price,” Mr Saran said. “Their concern is quality and safety. This is good because Cambodia can fully comply with these requirements.” According to the latest figures available, exports of Cambodian rice equalled 161,115 tonnes during the first three months of the year, a decrease of nearly 3.5 percent compared to the same period in 2017. During the first quarter of the year, Cambodia exported rice to 63 destinations. China was the top buyer, followed by France, Malaysia, Gabon, Poland, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50491622/rice-deal-with-papua-new-guinea-on-the-table/

Private traders now the source of cheapest rice with NFA supply tight By: Karl R. Ocampo - @inquirerdotnet Philippine Daily Inquirer / 10:07 PM May 21, 2018 In a twist of irony, the country‟s private traders are now the consumers‟ source of the cheapest rice alternative in the market as the tightness in the supply of the staple from the National Food Authority (NFA) led to the continuous increase in rice prices.

As of the first week of May, data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) showed retail prices for regular-milled and well-milled rice climbed to P40.04 and P43.86 per kg, respectively, or an increase of 7.29 percent and 5.48 percent from prices in the same period last year. The upward trend in the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x;s rice prices that started in January has led President Rodrigo Duterte to order private rice traders to help the government augment the supply of cheap rice in the market by providing commercial rice at P39 per kg. The state-run grains agency said rice prices might contract with the arrival of imported rice some time this month until the end of June. Under the government-to-government scheme, the NFA bought 250,000 metric tons of rice from Thailand and Vietnam, while another tranche of 250,000 MT of rice is expected to arrive by the end of the year in time for the lean season. /atm
