This will create a cycle of punctual planting of subsequent crops due to an early harvest.Paddy nurseries
will not be required any more under the new technology. Whereas the traditional paddy system requires
fields with standing water, the DDSR cultivation system requires field with wattar (wet) conditions.
Paddy nurseries will not be required any more under the new technology
The new technology will also enable farmers to drill seeding and ensure an optimum plant population
with less labour and reduced costs. Growers using the new technology can save fuel or energy by up to
30pc.
An interesting feature of this technology is that it will eliminate puddling creating fine seedbeds for the
wheat crop in the rabi season and improve wheat yields by almost 50pc.While the old system produces
green-house gases, the DDSR system will ensure an environmentally friendly paddy crop.In Pakistan,
there is immense pressure on natural resources due to rapid groundwater depletion, watersheds
degradation, desertification, deforestation and rangelands deterioration.

Rice Comment
Rice futures posted sharp losses, spiking to new contract lows. USDA's November production estimate
was 234.8 million cwt, down 1.2 million cwt from the October report, due to a decrease in the yield
forecast of 39 pounds per acre. The production decrease carried over into the ending stocks column as
well, as usage remained steady. However, exports have been slow to materialize, and there is currently a
lot of rice to move.

In conjunction with the national roll-out of the revamped CSP, the USA Rice-Ducks Unlimited's Rice
Stewardship Partnership is beginning the second phase of the National Rice Regional Conservation
Partnership Program (RCPP) project. Earlier this year, the Partnership organized the signing of more than
200 Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) contracts for rice growers across the six ricegrowing states. The second portion of the project entails enrolling 120,000 acres of ricelands under the
CSP in the same six states.
Partnership co-chair and Louisiana rice farmer Jeff Durand said, "CSP contracts have historically been
sought after by rice growers as astute stewards of their land but we've had a difficult time understanding
the application process and what we as farmers get out of the enhancements we've selected to
implement."
Durand added, "It's exciting for rice farmers to not only have a clearer understanding of how applications
are prioritized to be funded but also to have funds set-aside specifically for ricelands to help provide
growers an opportunity to implement some of the more costly enhancements."
Applications will be accepted beginning today through December 30, 2016 at your local NRCS
offices. More information can be found here.

Cai Ordinario
Lifting the quantitative restriction (QR) on rice next year could increase the prices of some
processed -meat products, particularly those that make use of imported poultry meat, according
to an expert.Dr. Rolando Dy, executive director of the University of Asia and the Pacifics
(UA&P) Center for Food and Agri Business, said poultry-meat imports would become more
expensive if the government allows the QR to expire next year.
Some processed-meat products, like hot dogs, could become more expensive if the QR is
removed, Dy told the BusinessMirror.But other poultry products, such as chicken-leg quarters,
would not become expensive, as these are heavily discounted [by the US], he added.
The Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) of the US Department of Agriculture noted in its latest
report that tariff rates for mechanically separated meat (MSM) of poultry and dairy products
would revert back to their previous, higher levels if the rice QR is lifted.The government had
issued executive orders, that granted tariff concessions to poultry products, such as mechanically
deboned meat (MDM) of chicken.
Since 2007, Philippine imports of chicken MDM have skyrocketed from 18,000 MT in 2007 to
almost 158,000 MT in 2015, the majority of which were used in meat processing, e.g., hot dogs,
sausages and dumplings, the FAS report read.In 2015 the FAS noted that the top three sources
of chicken MDM by volume were the US, Brazil and the Netherlands.

Out of desperation, some farmers in Ubon Ratchathani province set up roadside stands to sell the
long, tapering grain directly to consumers. Another farmer made a direct appeal to Thailand's
ruling junta for help via a social media video clip. Jasmine rice accounts for nearly 10.7 million
tons of the annual rice crop in the world's second largest exporter of the grain.
The military-led regime of Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha is scrambling to keep Thailand's
largest constituency in check, mindful that it accounts for 40% of the country's nearly 40 million
workers. On Nov. 7 the junta approved an 18 billion baht package to help farmers who grow
white rice, largely in the central provinces. A week earlier it approved 36 billion baht in funds to
help jasmine rice farmers in the north and northeast.
Both schemes provide soft loans to help farmers keep their stocks in barns at home instead of
releasing their harvested crops into the oversupplied market. The regime is banking on this
intervention in the rice market to dig the country out of the price slump.
"Short term solutions can allow farmers to carry on with their lives and build stability step by
step," Prayuth, a former army chief who led the 2014 coup that installed his government, said
during an address to the nation. "The government has emphasized the importance of the price of

Dry run: A farmer spreads out rice to dry on a road in Surin's Chom Phra district. Farmers want
the government to help deplete paddy to make room for the new harvest.Rice farmers have
begged the government for help as their stockpiles, which were not bought last year because of
oversupply, are backing up and leaving no room for this year's looming harvest.
The problem is particularly bad in Surin where farmers are racing against time to harvest Hom
Mali paddy from fields that have been hard hit by floods from swollen waterways.

Nga Sukjit, 57, of tambon Muang Leang in Chom Phra district, said harvesting was underway,
but barns were still full from last year. The grain was withheld from the market under the
storage-pledging programme.Mr Nga urged the government to find ways to help farmers release
their stockpiles so they can free-up space for this year's harvest.In tambon Muang Leang, 73 of
157 households joined the storage-pledging scheme for the 2015 harvesting season carried out by
the Bank for Agriculture and Agricultural Cooperatives.
Only five households have discharged their stocks.In the past two weeks, the government has
rolled out new subsidy schemes to help farmers who grow Hom Mali, white rice and Pathum
Thani fragrant paddy and store it in barns for a designated period. This has upset growers who do
not have their own storage.In Pathum Thani, Kingkan Thongkaew, 31, of Thanyaburi district,
complained she had no barns to store rice and needed to sell her output directly to buyers.
Ms Kingkan said the price for her Pathum Thani fragrant paddy had dropped from above 10,000
baht a tonne to between 5,000 and 6,000 baht. She needed to sell her harvest quickly to pay for
other expenses, including debts.Praphai Thongkaew, a 60-year-old farmer in Lam Luk Ka
district, said rice prices were too low and it was up to the government to find ways to push up the
prices to at least 8,000-9,000 baht a tonne.

Washington State University researches quinoa, which grows well in the western part of the
state. We joined with them and invested in some of their programs, Lundberg said. We set up
plots all over the West, including the Olympic peninsula down to the Imperial Valley in
southeastern California. He looked for climate zones where quinoa might thrive.
We found a few growers who were succeeding with quinoa, including Blake Richard, who
dry-farms quinoa in Ferndale, 20 miles south of Eureka in Humboldt County, and sells it to
Veritable Vegetables, an organic-produce distributor based in San Francisco. In 2015, Richard
began selling quinoa under contract to Lundberg Family Farms.
Lundberg has 567 acres under quinoa cultivation in Humboldt County, 85 acres in Mendocino
County, 20 acres near Smith River in Del Norte Co., 35 acres in San Mateo Co. and 31 acres on
the Olympic Peninsula.
RAW EDGE OF FAILURE
Foggy, coastal climates work well for quinoa. We had to earn some credibility to grow this,
Lundberg said. The company bought about 50 acres near Loleta, 13 miles south of Eureka.
Were learning everything, from seed varietals, how to purify the lines, understand processing,
removing the saponin layer. This is the first year we have done large bulk storage of quinoa, he
said. We are out there on the raw edge of failure and success based on this gamble, he said.
Its a great food. The opportunity to grow it here is beneficial to our local community. We can
add a stability in supply and quality that we think is very competitive to the market.
Domestic production could also allow lower prices. Quinoa typically sells for more than twice
the price of rice, at nearly $8 or more a pound in Lundberg packages.
We want to build a stable price. Growers can depend on certain economics, and that builds the
crops value and local community, Lundberg said.
Lundberg Family Farms is experimenting with a reasonable level of production for quinoa from
an acre of farmland. We thought it was around 1,000 pounds, he said. Now were seeing it
might be double that. You want crops that have a good gross and net.

WINDHOEK, Nov. 14 (Xinhua) -- More Chinese experts are coming to Namibia to help farmers
in the African country master better farming technologies.Earlier last week, 30 local farmers
attended a two-day training workshop on vegetable production, which was conducted by the
Chinese experts in Katima Mulilo in the Zambezi Region.Lynnety Sinalumbu, a farmer from
Bukalo, situated about 40 kilometres southeast of Katima Mulilo, is one of the participants of the
training sessions."I learnt a lot of Chinese technologies on horticulture production.
Sometimes it seems like it's hard to grow vegetables, but simple solutions to problems can easily
be implemented," she told Xinhua.For instance, the Chinese experts illustrated how simple nets
could be used as pest control mechanisms, which she said are easy to apply, Sinalumbu
said.Agricultural connexions volunteer Courtney Mbanga, also from Katima Mulilo, said the
