BANGKOK, 6 December 2013 (NNT) - Thailand has been in talks with many countries to sell rice in its stockpile, and
the deal might be concluded within this year, according to the Ministry of Commerce
According to the Commerce minister, Niwatthamrong Boonsongpaisarn, Thailand has been in talks with the government of the
Philippines and Indonesia, both of which will likely be concluded by the end of this year.Although the Thai government has as
much as16 million tons of rice sitting in warehouses nationwide, only a small amount of rice need to be sold, Niwatthamrong
said.Half of the stockpiled rice, or eight million tons, has been committed to other governments, while another five million tons
are from the latest rice buying scheme, which requires farmers to send only rice to the government; rice bran and broken milled
rice are excluded. Therefore, the real amount is much more lower than the registered figure.Meanwhile, foreign trade
department's director-general Surasak Riangkreau said there was a high possibility that Thailand would sell rice to Indonesia
because the country was in demand of as much as 600,000 tons of rice. Thailand is also in talks to sell 250,000 tons of rice to
Iran.

Rice purchases will aid farmers, says buffer stock panel chairman
The government plans to support rice
farmers by buying more than 100,000
tonnes of the staple in the coming
weeks, the chairman of the buffer stock
purchasing committee, U Chit Khine,
told Mizzima on November 4.U Chit
Khine welcomed indications that the
government would increase the
allocation to buy rice for the buffer
stock.“The amount provided by the
government to subsidize the purchase
of buffer stock rice in previous years
was quite low,” he said.“But this year,
both the government and the parliament have shown interest in buying more rice for the buffer stock.”U Chit
Khine said the rice would be bought in January and the price would be fixed at rates that were fair to farmers.
“The rates will be fixed after negotiations but we have to wait and see what the parliament will do,” U Chit
Khine said.Because of a late harvest the rates were yet to be set, he said, but added that they would exceed
market prices.The late harvest was caused by widespread flooding which forced many farmers to re-plant their
crops, resulting in higher production costs.Pyithu Hluttaw MP U Khine Maung Yi (NLD, Ahlone constituency)

urged the government to set a price that ensured farmers did not suffer a loss.“One of the problems farmers face
is that prices go down at harvest time and they are unable to cover their production costs,” U Khine Maung Yi
said.“Buying rice for the buffer stock is not just about profit and loss; this rice must be bought for the sake of
the country,” he said.

Hong Kong delegates talk Cambodian rice
Fri, 6 December 2013
Chan Muy Hong

Thirty-four delegates from the Rice Merchants’ Association of Hong Kong made their first visit to Cambodia on
Wednesday to explore more opportunities in the local milled rice sector.David Van, deputy secretary general of
the Alliance of Rice Producers and Exporters of Cambodia, said the point of the visit was to gather more
information about boosting direct exports of jasmine rice to Hong Kong, instead of going through a third
country.“The main purpose is to get to know each other better,” he said. “There were reports that local
companies mixed Vietnamese rice with Cambodian jasmine rice for export,” Van said, adding “that is why there

is concern about the quality of our rice”.Hong Kong only imports high-quality jasmine rice. In the first 11
months of this year, the administrative region imported 804 tonnes; ranking 32nd in terms of import volume.In
the same period, Cambodian rice exports reached 332,009 tonnes, a 93.7 per cent year-on-year increase.

Haryana rice mills seek relaxation in paddy damage norms
TNN | Dec 7, 2013, 02.53 AM IST

CHANDIGARH: Rice mills in Haryana are in a limbo as the Food Corporation of India (FCI) has not relaxed norms
related to damage of milled rice procured by it from them. Resultantly, Haryanahas stopped supply of rice to the
central pool from its 1,000-odd mills.Seeking relaxation on the damage percentage, Haryana rice mill owners are
now approaching the state government to pursue their case with FCI. They claim that inclement weather has resulted
in the damage of paddy crop. Haryana Rice millers Association (HRMA) said that faced a damage of 5 to 7% as
against the FCI's norm of 3%.
"This is not just the case in Haryana but other paddy growing states like Uttar Pradesh, Punjab,Chhattisgarh and
Andhra Pradesh are also involved. FCI and the Centre should increase the damage percentage to 4.5% for the
survival of farmer and the miller. We have also written to Union state minister for agriculture K V Thomas besides
giving representations to Kurukshetra MP Navin Jindal and Sirsa MP Ashok Tanwar," said Rajender Aggarwal,
HRMA president.

China still evaluating banned Syngenta GMO corn
Reuters | December 6, 2013

China is still evaluating whether to approve the strain of genetically-modified corn that caused it to reject some
U.S. imports in the last few weeks after its discovery in cargoes, a spokesman for the country's agriculture
ministry said.The spokesman, Bi Meijia, said at a press briefing on Friday that the strain, Syngenta's insectresistant MIR162, was still being evaluated after U.S.-based Syngenta provided additional information about the
product in November.Bi said that although Syngenta had applied for approval as early as 2010, the testing data
for MIR162 was not yet complete.He did not give any timetable for when the corn may be approved.The strain
is already shipped to Japan, South Korea, Russia and even the European Union, which is notoriously slow in
approving GMO crop varieties.At the same briefing, agriculture minister Han Changfu said that China was
committed to maintaining its 95 percent rate of self-sufficiency in grain, but would take greater advantage of
international markets to guarantee supply.
