Daily Global, Regional and Local Rice E-Newsletter Thaver congratulated the IPO for completing the IPO strategy 2017-2021 for TM, copyrights, design, patents and GI and urged the IPO to ensure infrstructure and perfect set up for its implementation. He said the draft GI law prepared by IPO and experts needs to be taken to the level of law and infact become law otherwise it will just remain a document.Regarding basmati trade mark the IPO needs to take steps to give the ownership to the Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP) as it belongs to all stakeholders from the growers, processors, exporters and domestic merchants as well. He emphasized the need to include all stakeholders in deliberations and at the same time requested the stakeholders to participate proactively in all deliberations. Regarding counterfeits and fake copies which are prevalent in the markets he complained that unfortunately there are second copies and fake goods available of several leading brands and even those manufactured by SMEs. He explained that it is for the bonafide owners of TMs and copyrights to protect their rights by taking legal action against infringements. There is a wrong conception that the TM registry and IPO will initiate action. It is essential that a complaint is made and simultaneously legal action is taken

Daily Global, Regional and Local Rice E-Newsletter BANGKOK/MUMBAI, Jan 26 Rice prices in India, top global exporter of the grain, advanced this week on robust domestic and international demand, while Thai prices fell in a quiet market.Prices for India's 5 percent broken parboiled rice RI-INBKN5-P1 rose this week to $354$359 per tonne, from $352-$357 last week, as demand for paddy or unmilled rice was robust from both local and overseas buyers. "Since paddy prices have risen, exporters were forced to raise milled rice prices," said an exporter based at Kakinada in the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh.Government agencies were also actively buying paddy for the public distribution system."Supplies have improved, but demand is surpassing supplies," said a Mumbai based exporter.The Indian government's move to scrap high value currency notes in November to crack down on corruption also disrupted supply chains in November and December and many local rice millers couldn't replenish their inventories.India mainly exports non-basmati rice to African countries and premier basmati rice to Middle East. Basmati is a long-grained, fragrant rice that is typically grown in the South Asian subcontinent. In Thailand, the world's second-biggest rice exporter, prices of 5-percent broken rice RITHBKN5-P1 fell to $355-$360 a tonne, free-on-board (FOB) Bangkok, from $360-$365 last week."It's quiet. Nothing significant is going on in the market," said a Bangkok-based trader."Prices should remain stable for the next few weeks," he said.The Thai Rice Exporters Association quoted the 5-percent broken rice at $375 a tonne on Thursday, down from $380 a week ago.Vietnam's 5-percent broken rice RI-VNBKN5-P1 was quoted at $335-$340 a tonne, FOB Saigon, on Wednesday, narrower from $335-$345 a tonne last week. Vietnam, the world's third-biggest rice exporter, will ship an estimated 325,000 tonnes of the grain in January, down 32.3 percent from a year earlier, the agriculture ministry said on Thursday.Revenue from the Vietnamese rice exports, mostly shipped to China, Ghana and the Philippines, will reach an estimated $136 million this month, or 35.1 percent lower than at the same time in 2016, the agriculture ministry said in a monthly report.Vietnam's rice market is closed as the country celebrates its Lunar New Year holidays, which begin on Thursday and run through until next Wednesday.

Commodity Groups Ask Trump to Keep Food Aid American-Grown By Peter Bachmann
WASHINGTON, DC -- Earlier today, several commodity organizations providing the bulk of the in-kind food aid contributions by the United States sent a letter to President Trump asking him to maintain and strengthen the role that U.S. farmers play in ensuring global food security. The letter highlights the "impressive, proven record," that the U.S. maintains as the global leader

Daily Global, Regional and Local Rice E-Newsletter in saving and improving lives through U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) food assistance programs. "While President Trump has not specifically addressed food aid, we feel the rice industry's approach is definitely in line with his overarching philosophy of promoting U.S. products abroad," said USA Rice Vice President of Government Affairs Ben Mosely. "U.S. taxpayers contribute significant dollars to the global food aid effort and we have ample supplies of safe and affordable food to give." The mutually beneficial approach of providing in-kind contributions through international food assistance programs has allowed the U.S. to touch the lives of more than three billion people in over 150 countries since 1966. "USA Rice was glad to be a part of this call to action to the new administration," said Sarah Moran, USA Rice senior director for international trade and market development. "U.S.-grown rice has historically been a big part of the donations sent abroad through USDA and USAID's food assistance programs. We know this is a priority for the industry and have been working long and hard to improve rice's use in the various programs as a healthy and nutritious alternative to simply handing over cash."
No fake rice in Malaysia, says Health Ministry BY FERNANDO FONG - 26 JANUARY 2017 @ 11:16 PM Facebook 201 Twitter Share 201 KUALA LUMPUR: The Health Ministry has clarified that several brands of rice, which are said to be fake and made from plastic, had not been imported into the country.

With the clarification, he said the public need not worry about fake rice as the monitoring and enforcement of food safety are constantly carried out to ensure that food available in the market is safe. Should consumers have doubt on the safety of a particular food item in the market, Dr Noor Hisham said they can make a complaint to the ministry through the state Health Department or the nearest district Health Office. Complaints can also be made at ministry's website, http://moh.spab.gov.my and the Facebook page of the ministry's Food Safety and Quality Division at www.facebook.com/bkkmhq. In June last year, the Health Ministry had also clarified allegations on fake rice. A producing factory in Kedah was alleged to produces fake rice, which was untrue and baseless. 1085 reads The Health Ministry has clarified that several brands of rice, which are said to be fake and made from plastic, had not been imported into the country. The brands are Kokeshi Rice, Kohinoor Basmati Rice dan NICR. (File pix

Daily Global, Regional and Local Rice E-Newsletter Like many plant-based operations, the Curcuma food truck uses the soft evangelism of its "About" section to make a case for eliminating meat and dairy, describing chef and owner Rachel Musquiz's "personal journey" switching over to ayurvedic and (assumably) vegan eating. The section describes turmeric, the rhizome for which the trailer is named, as a gateway herb – and it is as good an entry as any to what Curcuma does, showing up in voguish golden "mylk" lattes and ice cream. Even when not using its namesake, the trailer is very much on trend, offering activated charcoal black lemonade ($6 for a large), coconut butter coffee ($4), and a shockingly drinkable super matcha latte ($6) filled with all sorts of algae and cyanobacteria.
On the food side, the sweet potato "toast" ($8 for a three-slice sampler) is actually built on a longways slice of the tuber, and that can take some getting used to. In order to provide a rigid enough base, the sweet potatoes aren't exposed to too much heat, creating a slightly off-putting texture. It's a testament to Musquiz's palate that I largely forgot about that crunch midway through. Of the three varieties, the spicy avocado mash was the most effective, sticking to the guacamole foundation of citrus, pepper, and salt. But the milky cashew ricotta and the

Daily Global, Regional and Local Rice E-Newsletter autumnally spiced cinnamon and coconut butter each have their pleasures, both relying on (light) salt and crunch – from pepitas and crushed pecans, respectively. Those are suitable for sharing along with an order of the filling rose tahini cacao truffles ($2.75) that feel like an indulgence even if they probably aren't.
Still, the intersection between Curcuma's ayurvedic principles and Musquiz's craft peaks with the kitchari bowl ($10). Kitchari is most commonly a stewlike mixture of basmati rice and mung dal, made with ghee, seasonal vegetables, and various seasonings, contemporarily popular for monodiet cleanses. Curcuma's version is drier than most, keeping the mung beans but replacing the rice with quinoa, creating something akin to the Buddha bowls that so effectively preoccupy bloggers. Cynicism aside, this bowl earns its hype by avoiding extraneous ingredients and garnishes. Everything has a purpose, from the chomp of the chickpeas to the snap of the massaged (ugh) spinach, and the dabs of flavor – a ginger chutney, pickled onions, sesame seeds on the avocado – make each bite distinct, avoiding the monotony of many grain bowls. Curcuma's kitchari is almost good enough to carry the entire menu, but it's probably for the best

Daily Global, Regional and Local Rice E-Newsletter DA to donate brown rice to various charities By BusinessMirror JANUARY 26, 2017
The #BROWN4good Challenge, a social-media campaign of the Department of Agriculture (DA), is donating more than a million pesos worth of brown rice to chosen charities nationwide. To start the donations at the National Capital Region (NCR), celebrities Kylie Padilla and Mikael Daez distributed packs of brown rice to over 200 families in Payatas, Quezon City, on January 19. They also helped serve brown-rice arroz caldo to children from the said community in coordination with the local government of Payatas, Komunidad Kay Kristo (KKK-Payatas) and the ladies of Bayan Muna-Payatas. The rest of the brown-rice donations for NCR will be given by ABS-CBN Foundation to over 400 families from communities along the Pasig River. Meanwhile, regional donations have already started in the cities of Cebu, Davao and Iloilo, among others. Beneficiaries include elders, indigenous peoples, street children and drug rehabilitees at charitable institutions supported by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD).Combining hashtagging, selfie/food photography and the challenge craze, the #BROWN4good Challenge enjoined the public to do “four goodness� simply by eating brown rice. Every photo of a brown-rice meal posted in social media from August 28 to December 5, 2016, with a hashtag was equated to a cup of brown rice for the charities.

Daily Global, Regional and Local Rice E-Newsletter The DA said the campaign was a way to inform the public of the four goodness of brown rice: personal goodness considering its health benefits; goodness to the farmers; goodness for the country, as brown rice has 10 percent higher milling recovery; and for others, such as the beneficiaries of the chosen charities who will receive brown rice for their consumption. “We’re happy that many were encouraged to eat brown rice because of the challenge. They had different motivations. But whatever that is, we are glad they committed to eat brown rice regularly, with some even committing for life,” said Hazel V. Antonio, campaign director of the Be Riceponsible Campaign.The Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) said brown rice is unpopular among low- and middle-income classes, despite its health benefits, because of its high price. By commissioning farmers’ cooperatives to be suppliers of good-quality brown rice and linking them to retailers and food establishments, PhilRice was able to make it available in major cities at P37 to P45 per kilogram. “While it was made around 40 percent cheaper than in malls, farmers were still able to get income of as much as six times higher because of the project. Thus, consumers were able to afford it while also increasing the income of farmers,” Antonio said. “The #BROWN4good Challenge proved that Filipinos are just deterred by the high price of brown rice. Given more affordable and accessible supply, more would be willing to embrace it for good. Thus, the challenge that DA would continue to address,” she added.
