PILIBHIT: With rice millers shutting down operations across the state, the district administration
as well as the food and marketing department here are grappling with the problem of continuing
the paddy procurement process as the government purchase centres do not have any storage
facility.In order to resolve the matter, chief secretary, UP government, Rahul Bhatnagar met state
office-bearers of the rice millers association in Lucknow on Monday afternoon. After the
meeting, officials said it was agreed upon that the state administration would take a final decision
in the matter within the next two days after holding talks with government officials
concerned.Around 4,000 rice millers across the state stopped operations on October 16 in protest
against the state governments policy to regulate the rice industry. States rice millers association
had earlier announced to go on an indefinite strike till their six-point demands were addressed by
the state government.When asked how the administration would cope with the situation as the
procurement agencies have no storage facilities, district magistrate, Masoom Ali Sarvar said he
would wait for the decision of the state government.
The district administration will comply with whatever directions are issued by the state
government, he said.According to Hardoi-based state president of the rice millers association

The rice-import quotaa nontariff barrier that the Philippines has enjoyed for more than two
decadeswould expire in less than a year. If we are to believe the recent pronouncements of
economic managers pushing for the removal of the quantitative restriction (QR) on rice traded
under the World Trade Organization (WTO), it appears that it is already a done deal. All it lacks
is the nod of the President to fast-track the process of eliminating the power of the government to
limit the entry of rice imports.
Those advocating for its removal point to the need to feed millions of poor Filipinos who cannot
afford to buy meat products, such as pork and chicken. With the removal of the import quota,
experts and economic managers expect that rice sold at the retail level would be cheaper.
Consider this: The Philippines recently bought milled rice from Vietnam and Thailand at an
average of $450 per metric ton, or $0.45 a kilogram. At the current exchange rate, $0.45 is
equivalent to P21, cheaper than the local regular-milled rice being sold at P36 per kilo, according
to the latest data from the Philippine Statistics Authority.
The Cabinet and the President himself have yet to make a pronouncement regarding the
scrapping of the rice QR. While economic managers appear to have made up their minds not to
negotiate for its extension, they have yet to present a viable plan on how to help the 2.6 million
Filipino rice farmers compete with their Vietnamese counterparts, who enjoy subsidies from
their government, such as exemptions from irrigation charges and tariff rates of 0 percent to 5
percent for imported agricultural machines and equipment.
The governments strategies must also focus on ensuring the countrys food security amid the
challenges posed by climate change. Philippine officials were taught a lesson in 2008, when they
were forced to buy rice at more than $1,000 per metric ton because international supply was
tight, following the export restrictions imposed by India and Vietnam. India had to limit its rice
exports after its wheat crop was destroyed by a typhoon, while Vietnam banned new export sales
due to unseasonably cold weather in the first quarter of 2008, according to the Food and
Agriculture Organization.
Unfortunately, more than 20 years and three administrations later, farmers groups complain that they
remain unable to compete with their Asean counterparts. The Duterte administration has less than a year
to prepare 2.6 million Filipino rice farmers for a major change. The same determination exhibited by

The Department of Finance (DOF) has thrown its support to plans of imposing a tariff on rice
imports, saying this was more beneficial to the rice sector readying to become an open market.
At the Senate agriculture and food committee hearing on Monday, state-run think tank Philippine
Institute of Development Studies (Pids) urged a shift from the current quantitative restriction (QR)
regime, which puts a quota on imports.
Pids research fellow Lovely Ann C. Tolin recommended slapping a 35-percent tariff on imported
rice after the QR lapses in July next year.
Tolin also urged providing a funding support for farmers, which could be sourced from the tariff
collection.
The tariff system and funding support can be authorized by suitable amendment to the
Agricultural Tariffication Act with the proviso that the executive can specify implementation
details, Tolin said, referring to Republic Act No. 8178.
Finance Undersecretary Gil S. Beltran said the agency supports removing import restrictions on
rice and transferring rice importations to the private sector.
Curbing corruption
We believe that this will lessen opportunities for corruption and also incentivize greater
investment in the rice sector. The uncertainty over the timing and levels of imports on domestic
sales by the [National Food Authority] has resulted in underinvestment in milling, drying and
storage, Beltran said.
Also, the uncertainty of business terms within the private sector has also diminished the
investment incentives in rice markets. These deficiencies cannot be eradicated by simply removing
quota management processes. They must be addressed through tariffication, Beltran added.
