Genetically altered rice variety yields for years without

replantin Winifred Bird | March 10, 2015 Ten thousand years ago, China‘s ancient inhabitants harvested the grains of wild rice, a perennial

grass growing up to 15 feet tall in bogs and streams. The grains were small and red, maturing in

waves and often shattering into the water. Their descendants transformed that grain into the high-

yielding annual crop that today feeds half the world‘s population.Today, with the climate

changing and far more land under intensive cultivation, rice farmers face a less certain future.An

international network of scientists is working toward a radical solution: perennial rice that yields

grain for many years without replanting.

By crossing domesticated rice with its wild predecessors, they hope to create deep-rooted

varieties that hold soils in place, require less labor, and survive extremes of temperature and

water supply. Plant breeders have been trying to do the same for wheat, sorghum, and other

crops for decades.With rice, the vision is finally nearing reality. Chinese scientists are preparing

to release a variety that they say performs well in lowland paddies and, with more breeding

work, could eventually thrive on marginal land as well.

Still, progress is uneven due to differences in genetics, breeding techniques, growing conditions,

and research interest for various grains. Perennial wheat — a key crop at the Land Institute —

remains decades from yield parity with annual wheat, according to Crews. Perennial maize

research is even farther behind. Among major staples, only perennial rice is ―approaching

reality,‖ according to the proceedings of the 2013 FAO meeting.

Rice production in ARMM gets boost March 10, 2015 12:01 am

by JULMUNIR I. JANNARAL

REPORTER

COTABATO CITY, Maguindanao: Rice production in the Autonomous Region in Muslim

Mindanao (ARMM) can more than double to 7.7 metric tons per hectare (mt/ha) with the

successful trial of Green Super Rice by the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries (DAF) in

the region.The GSR is part of DAF-ARMM‘s P3-million technology-driven programs designed

to help increase the productivity of rice farmers in the region with the use of modern technology

in farming.ARMM Agriculture Secretary Macmod Mending Jr. said they are ―pushing for the

commercialization of this variety for increased productivity and better income for our farmers‖

following a successful harvest at a 2-hectare demonstration farm in Maguindanao.

The GSR was developed by the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the International

Rice Research Institute to be climate resilient and resistant to rice diseases such as sheath blight,

bacterial leaf streak viruses and false smut, according to Mending.The GSR variety can lead to

more stable yield with lesser fertilizer and pesticide inputs, he added.ARMM currently ranks

18th in terms of rice production in the country with a 3.1 mt/ha yield. Mending said they expect

to increase this to 7.7 mt/ha with the introduction of GSR.The DAF-ARMM has distributed GSR

seeds to 500 farmers during the rice farmers‘ field day and harvest festival held in Sultan

Mastura town, Maguindanao last month.

The technology-driven programs of DAF-ARMM include the Rice Crop Manager (RCM),

Philippine Rice Information System (PRISM), and the Next Generation (NextGen) farmers.The

RCM is an Internet-based application that provides recommendations on nutrients, pest, weeds,

and water management based on the variety of input and site-specific conditions.PRISM is a

system provides data and maps out rice growing areas affected by natural calamities and pest

outbreaks. Meanwhile, NextGen involves the introduction and adoption of high-yielding rice

varieties and hybrids, such as the GSR, with tolerance to biotic and abiotic strain in rice

production.

DAF-ARMM also provided a P1.6 million worth combined harvester to the farmers in the town

of Sultan Mastura. The machine can simultaneously reap, harvest and thresh rice.―ARMM aims

to address the challenges on farming by taking advantage of new technologies that increases

farm productivity, and making them available even to the poor farmers in the region,‖ Mending

said.

State disburse K2.7m for rice production Posted in Business on March 10, 2015 by Online User

KALONDE NYATI, Lusaka

GOVERNMENT will soon disburse about K2.7 million to boost rice production in Nalolo and

Limulunga in Western Province.This follows the recent shortlisting of 45 business applications

for rice-related projects in the two districts under the Citizens Economic Empowerment

Commission (CEEC) industrial cluster programme.Commerce, Trade and Industry permanent

secretary Siazongo Siakalenge, however, said the disbursement awaits final approval of the

shortlisted candidates and funding from the treasury.Of the total amount, K1.4 million will be

disbursed to 21 beneficiaries in Nalolo while 24 beneficiaries will receive K1.3 million in

Limulunga.

―In response to the constraints noted in the rice subsector of these districts, Government through

CEEC has shortlisted 45 rice-related business applications for in Nalolo and Limulunga,‖ Mr

Siakalenge said recently when he appeared before the parliamentary committee on Government

assurances.He said the two districts have potential for primary rice production and value addition

but undermined due to high cost of machinery for processing rice, inadequate skills and

technology for rice seed production, and lack of irrigation facilities.

Mr Siakalenge cited weak private and public sector support institutions, ineffective coordination

and limited access to high cost appropriate finance as some of the challenges affecting the

growth of the industry.He said Government‘s move to players in rice production will boost the

sector and contribute to food security.Government has since formulated a national rice

development strategy to develop the sector through value chain initiatives and strong stakeholder

participation.

PDS rice scam: Congress demands Chhattisgarh CM's

resignation

New Delhi, Mar. 10 ANI8 hours ago

The Congress on Tuesday demanded Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Dr. Raman Singh's resignation

over the unfolding of the PDS rice scam in the state.Congress leader Abhishek Manu Singhvi led

the protests against Dr. Singh, calling the allegations against him 'very serious'.'The Congress

party demands the resignation of the Chhattisgarh CM and a time bound judicial probe into the

PDS Rice scam. The allegations against him are of a very serious nature. Documents found

during the probe refer to involvement of his wife and sister-in-law. The nature of allegations are

of a very serious nature and most direct," Singhvi told the media.

'It is a matter of shame that the probe documents refer to the adulteration of rice. Millers supplied

this rice to Chhattisgarh public distribution system. They mixed good rice with bad rice. Can



Page 5


there be anything more deplorable than taking commission on this? The Chhattisgarh CM should

resign,' he added.Singhvi further said that Dr. Singh had now joined Madhya Pradesh Chief

Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan in 'resisting' a probe into alleged scams.

'This is the Chhattisgarh CM who talked about zero tolerance with respect to corruption but is

now silent. The CM of his neighboring State, Madhya Pradesh, is resisting inquiry with the same

ferocity, into the Vyapam scam. It is the story of two states, both ruled by the BJP, whose CMs

are resisting inquiries into big scams against them,' he said.'This is an extremely serious matter.

In both cases there is complicity with culpability. The PM should show he can match action with

words. Raman Singh is known as 'Chawal Baba', and in his state, rice is adulterated. What can be

worse than this?' he added.

Earlier, the Chhattisgarh Police Anti-Corruption Bureau raided the state Civil Supplies

Corporation offices and reportedly recovered around Rs 3.5 crore. The authorities also seized

several documents that named many top functionaries of the state as the scam beneficiaries.

GREENPEACE CO-FOUNDER SUPPORTS GMO GOLDEN RICE

published by Asianpost on Tue, 03/10/2015 - 20:17

A Vancouver-based eco-crusader is raising the heckles of

farmers across Asia as he mounts a campaign to promote a

genetically modified variety of rice in the Philippines and

India.The so-called 'Golden' rice is a genetically engineered

(GE) rice variety that has been developed by industry to

produce pro-vitamin A (beta-carotene). Its proponents have

hyped GE 'Golden' rice as a high-tech, quick-fix solution to

vitamin A deficiency , which is prevalent in developing

countries and can lead to blindness.

But Greenpeace says that is all hype and that the rice is environmentally irresponsible, poses

risks to human health, and could compromise food, nutrition and financial security.Ironically the

person behind the Allow Golden Rice Campaign is Dr Patrick Moore, who co-founded

Greenpeace and the quit the organization in 1986 saying the eco-group no longer cares about

people and that it had become more interested in politics than science.Greenpeace says Dr Moore

is a ―paid spokesman for the nuclear industry, the logging industry, and genetic engineering

industry‖ and that he ―exploits long gone ties with Greenpeace to sell himself as a speaker and

pro-corporate spokesperson, usually taking positions that Greenpeace opposes.‖

One of the issues that Greenpeace opposes vehemently is Moore‘s current Allow Golden Rice

Campaign which tours Philippines, Bangladesh, and India where vitamin A deficiency is a major

cause of child mortality. The Allow Golden Rice Society is actively campaigning for the

approval of Golden Rice so it can be delivered to the 200 million children who are deficient in

vitamin A.―Two million children and many mothers die each year from a lack of this essential

vitamin. It is the greatest cause of child death today. Golden Rice is the obvious cure, but

because it was created with genetic science Greenpeace and the anti-GMO movement fervently

oppose it,‖ states Moore.

Moore said that on August 8, 2013, Greenpeace instigated the destruction of Golden Rice

scientific field trials at the International Rice Research Institute in the Philippines.―If Golden

Rice were a cure for cancer, malaria, or Ebola, it would have been approved 10 years ago. In that



Page 7


time 20 million people, mostly children, have died.This is a crime against humanity,‖ stated Dr.

Patrick Moore, leader of the campaign. ―All we ask is that Greenpeace and their allies make an

exception for Golden Rice to their opposition to GM crops‖, continued Dr. Moore. ―Millions of

lives are at stake.‖

Moore who just concluded his visit to the Philippines, moves on to Dhaka, Bangladesh and

Mumbai and New Delhi in India.Anti-GM crop activist Benedicto Sánchez wrote that in the

Philippines, Moore will find Negros Occidental inhospitable for his dubious gospel of

―development.‖The province‘s Gov. Alfredo Marañon Jr. targetting Moore‘s tour said: ―We have

an ordinance, they cannot come in. In Negros we are GMO-free, we are an organic island,‖ while

emphasizing the need for vigilance against such products.For its part, the Hotel and Restaurant

Association of Negros Occidental said: ―We believe that there is still no adequate proof that

GMO, such as ‗golden‘ rice are safe for the environment or human health, and, as our

commitment to our customers, we refuse to serve genetically modified rice in our

establishments.‖

No, Mr. Patrick Moore. You are persona non grata with the Negrenses wrote in the local

paper.MASIPAG, a Filipino farmer-led network of people‘s organizations, NGOs and scientists

has launched a Facebook campaign to stop Moore‘s advicacy for Golden Rice.―We reiterate the

opposition of Filipino farmers to genetically modified (GM) crops and we will register our

resistance against Golden Rice and other GM crops,‖ it states.―Our opposition to Golden Rice

and other GM crops are founded on solid arguments and actual experiences of Filipino farmers

on GM crops. Filipino farmers who have been planting GM crops suffered negative income,

health problems and poisoned environment.‖

In India, The pro-technology Modi government is desperate to introduce genetically modified

(GM) crops. It is now holding closed-door meetings with the right wing-affiliated groups – the

Swadeshi Jagran Manch (SJM) and the Bhartiya Kisan Sangh (BKS) – to end their opposition to

the crops."The aim is to dispel fears about GM crops, so that the country can join the US, China

and Canada. GM crops are very important for India's agriculture growth," says a senior

agriculture ministry official.Greenpeace India is already mobilizing its troops to debunk Dr

Moore‘s assertions.

―GE 'Golden' rice does not address the underlying causes of Vitamin A Deficiency, which are

mainly poverty and lack of access to a healthy and varied diet. This GE rice is a technological fix

that may generate new problems. For example, the single-crop approach of GE 'Golden' rice

could make malnutrition worse because it encourages a diet based solely on rice, rather than

increasing access to a diverse diet of fruits and vegetables, considered crucial to combatting

VAD and other nutrient deficiencies.‖

PH rice inventory continues to shrink, report shows

Ronnel W. Domingo

Philippine Daily Inquirer

3:40 AM | Tuesday, March 10th, 2015

The country‘s total rice reserve shrank for the second month in a row to settle at 69 days‘ worth

of consumption as of Feb. 1, nine days less than the buffer at the start of the year, according to

the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA).Inventory fell to 2.35 million tons from 2.66 million

tons on Jan. 1 as farmers prepare their fields for this year‘s dry season crop.Still, data from the

PSA showed that the National Food Authority‘s stock of milled rice climbed to 530,000 tons

from 520,000 tons, although 97 percent of this was imported.As of Feb. 1, the NFA‘s stock was

still at its mandated minimum volume, at 15 days‘ consumption.

Supplies held in commercial warehouses went down by 40,000 tons to 770,000 tons. Likewise,

household stocks dropped by 280,000 tons to settle at 1.05 million tons.Households keep grains

good for 31 days while commercial warehouses maintain supplies good for 24 days.Two weeks

ago, the NFA announced that it was preparing for the possible importation of 250,000 tons of

well-milled rice from Thailand and Vietnam. The volume was valued at P9.5 billion.Answering a

call for tenders, Thailand‘s Ministry of Commerce gave the best offer for 100,000 tons of well-

milled, long-grain white rice with 15 percent brokens at $441 per ton.Thailand‘s offer was also

the best for 100,000 tons with 25 percent brokens at $421 per ton.

Vietnam Southern Food Corp. matched Thailand‘s prices for the remaining supplies of 150,000

tons for each lot.The NFA has called for tenders in an effort to beef up its stock of the staple

grain in time for the domestic lean production months that start in July.In December, the Food

and Agriculture Organization said the Philippines‘ production of palay for the current crop year

that would end in June 2015 was expected to ease by 0.4 percent to 18.8 million tons.The FAO

said this was due to farm damage caused by Typhoon ―Ruby‖ as well as the farmers‘ fears of the

El Niño phenomenon.

However, in its latest market monitoring report issued on March 5, the Agriculture Market

Information System (Amis) has stopped giving updates on the probability of a prolonged drought

this year while maintaining its assessment that conditions on rice production were ―favorable.‖In

the previous report published in February, the Amis noted that the probability of the El Niño

occurring had climbed back to 70 percent, but atmospheric signs had yet to materialize.―[The

criteria for an] El Niño, however, have not been met because these conditions have not been in

place long enough, and certain atmospheric features have not yet appeared,‖ the Amis said. ―A

strong event is not expected, in any case.‖

Specialised rice growing areas to be formed in Mekong Delta

The establishment of five new specialised rice-growing areas is underway in the Mekong Delta

to meet the growing demand of domestic and international markets, said Le Thanh Tung from the

Department of Plant Cultivation under the Ministry of Agricultural and Rural Development.

The five areas include the Ca Mau Peninsula, the Tay

Song Hau (western Hau River) area, the Tu Giac Long

Xuyen region, alluvia soil along the Tien and Hau

Rivers, and the Dong Thap Muoi region cultivating

specific rice varieties in large-scale fields in

accordance with their conditions.According to the

Department, the Mekong Delta should review and

focus on ensuring a variety of rice types to promote

high-quality and high-yield production.The Mekong

Delta region, the nation‘s largest granary, currently

has a large-scale rice field area of around 100,000 hectares.The rice field area in the Mekong

Delta will be expanded to 800,000 hectares by 2020, equal to 20 percent of the annual rice-

producing area of the region and producing an output of 4.5 million tonnes of brown rice,

according to Vinafood 2.

Rice Shipments From Vietnam Climbing on Lower Prices,

China byDiep Ngoc Pham

10:43 PM EDT ,March 9, 2015

(Bloomberg) -- Rice exports from Vietnam, the world‘s third-largest shipper, will probably

rebound this year as lower prices boost demand, while competition with Thailand keeps the gain

to single digits, according to the government.―The Chinese market will definitely become active

again after quiet periods late 2014 and early this year,‖ said Tran Tuan Anh, deputy minister of

industry and trade. Competitive prices, suitable varieties, and geographic proximity in particular

to China, are Vietnam‘s advantages over Thailand, the top shipper. Exports may rise ―less than

10 percent‖ in 2015, he said in an interview in Hanoi on March 4.Global output is set to be near

last year‘s record, and Thailand will ship more this year than any country ever, U.S. government

data show.

Futures fell to a four-year low in Chicago, helping cut food costs to the lowest since 2010. While

Thailand‘s export prices will be pressured as the country sells about 17 million metric tons in

state reserves over the next two years, they have been higher than that of Vietnam, India and

Pakistan, the Thai Rice Exporters Association says.―While generally, Vietnamese rice costs less,

Thailand does offer lower prices sometimes,‖ Anh said, without giving an estimate. Thailand is

trying to increase access to Africa, where India and Pakistan also compete ―fiercely,‖ he

said.Prices for Vietnam‘s double-water-polished milled-rice with 5 percent broken were quoted

at $355 per ton, the lowest since July 2010 and $50 less than Thailand‘s 5 percent broken for the

week ending Feb. 10, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said in a report dated Feb. 12.

Thai Prices

The Thai variety was at $419 a ton on March 4, according to exporters association data. Chareon

Laothamatas, president of the group, said on Feb. 3 that the price was about $405 to $410 and

compares with $355 in Vietnam, $370 in Pakistan and $380 in India. The sale of stockpiled rice

will continue to weigh on prices, Chareon said.Thailand‘s record stockpiles are the legacy of the

previous government‘s rice-purchase policy. Yingluck Shinawatra‘s administration spent $27

billion buying at guaranteed, above-market rates to aid farmers. She was ousted in May by

military leaders, who now plan to auction the grain.

Futures traded at $10.53 per 100 pounds on the Chicago Board of Trade on Tuesday after

plunging to $10.01 on Feb. 3, the lowest since July 2010.

Vietnam Sales

Exports from Vietnam dropped to 6.4 million tons in 2014 from 6.7 million a year earlier,

General Statistics Office data show. Sales in the first two months of 2015 may reach 515,000

tons, down 34 percent from a year ago, the office estimates.Shipments will pick up from the

second quarter and bring the total this year to match or exceed last year‘s figure by ―a little bit,‖

Anh said, without giving exact figures.Global milled production may decline to 474.6 million

tons in 2014-15 from an all-time high of 477.1 million tons a year earlier, according to the

USDA.

Thai shipments will climb to 11 million tons in 2015 from 10.2 million tons last year, according

to the Food & Agriculture Organization. India will export 8.2 million tons from 10 million tons,

it said. China‘s imports may reach 4.3 million tons in 2014-15 from 4.1 million, the USDA

report shows.Vietnam will also continue to count on demand from its traditional markets like the

Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia, Anh said. While the countries are trying to boost

production and become self-sufficient, their efforts will take time and demand is still high this

year, he said.

Japan weather bureau raises chance of El Nino emerging by

summer

TOKYO Tue Mar 10, 2015 1:26am EDT

(Reuters) - Japan's weather bureau said on Tuesday that the possibility of an El Nino pattern

forming by summer is higher than the 50 percent it projected in its previous monthly

forecast.Normal weather patterns may continue, but there is higher chance of an El Nino, which

is often linked to heavy rainfall in some regions and drought in others, emerging by summer, the

bureau said.The El Nino weather pattern - a warming of sea-surface temperatures in the Pacific -

can trigger drought in Southeast Asia and Australia, and floods in South America, hitting

production of key foods such as rice, wheat and sugar.

$410 and compares with $355 in Vietnam, $370 in Pakistan and $380 in India. The sale of

stockpiled rice will continue to weigh on prices, Mr Chareon said.

Thailand's record stockpiles are the legacy of the previous government's rice-purchase policy.

Yingluck Shinawatra's administration spent $27 billion buying at guaranteed, above- market

rates to aid farmers.Futures traded at $10.53 per 100 pounds on the Chicago Board of Trade on

Tuesday after plunging to $10.01 on Feb 3, the lowest since July 2010.

Vietnam sales

Exports from Vietnam dropped to 6.4 million tonnes in 2014 from 6.7 million a year earlier,

General Statistics Office data show. Sales in the first two months of 2015 may reach 515,000

tons, down 34% from a year ago, the office estimates.Shipments will pick up from the second

quarter and bring the total this year to match or exceed last year's figure by "a little bit," Mr Tran

said, without giving exact figures.

Global milled production may decline to 474.6 million tonnes in 2014-15 from an all-time high

of 477.1 million tonnes a year earlier, according to the USDA.Thai shipments will climb to 11

million tonnes in 2015 from 10.2 million tonnes last year, according to the Food & Agriculture

Organization. India will export 8.2 million tonnes from 10 million tons, it said. China's imports

may reach 4.3 million tonnes in 2014-15 from 4.1 million, the USDA report shows.Vietnam will

also continue to count on demand from its traditional markets like the Philippines, Malaysia, and

Indonesia, Mr Tran said. While the countries are trying to boost production and become self-

sufficient, their efforts will take time and demand is still high this year, he said.

Farm bill update: Medium grain rice and peanuts Mar 9, 2015Bobby Coats Delta Farm Press

Editor's note: Bobby Coats is a professor, University of Arkansas Division of Agriculture

Medium grain rice

A number of questions have been asked about medium grain rice ARC/PLC program

participation. The presentation at the following link provides some perspective on this issue.This

article builds on our previous article where we looked at a simple comparison of expected PLC

and ARC-CO payments for long grain rice, soybeans, corn, and wheat. The accompanying tables

to the presentation below provide real perspective on possible PLC (SCO – Not Included) and

ARC payments by county and years 2014-2018. Note the probabilities.I will restate: If one (for

any number of reasons) is simply not going to use a farm bill decision aid and wants to gain an

increased understanding of their farm by farm and crop by crop options, this discussion may

provide some insight into ARC-CO and PLC (SCO-Not Included) program options.

One option is to use the Texas A&M and Missouri FAPRI ARC/PLC Evaluator for Generic Base

Module or Decision Tool.This tool compares expected PLC and ARC-CO payments (the average

payment across many possible future realizations of prices and yields) for a county of your choice. In

the calculations, they use two key assumptions.

• First, they assume that you would have a PLC Payment Yield equal to the default value assigned

by FSA in the absence of a yield history.

• Second, they assume expected prices equal to the latest FAPRI projections.

The output reflects only expected payments for PLC and ARC-CO. It should be noted, that choosing

ARC-CO precludes one from purchasing the crop insurance Supplemental Coverage Option (SCO).

Expected net SCO indemnities are not reflected in the output.

Feds to California farmers: 'no water for you this year'

State water project looks to make minimal deliveries to growers

Mar 8, 2015Todd Fitchette Western Farm Press

The Feb. 27 announcement of zero federal water to California farmers is another crushing blow

to a state trying to gain economic traction and slow the bleeding of underground aquifers.For a

second consecutive year the Bureau of Reclamation will allocate zero water to California farmers

via the Central Valley Project (CVP). The zero allocation applies to all agricultural water users

with federal contracts in California.In making its decision the Bureau of Reclamation also

declared a ―Shasta-critical‖ year, meaning water contractors north of the Delta will not have

irrigation water as the agency determines quantities to hold back for senior water rights holders

and wildlife refuges in the Central Valley.

For northern California rice growers this ―Shasta-critical‖ designation can signal less available

water and forced fallowing of rice land, which doubles as habitat for migratory birds and other

wildlife along the Pacific Flyway.

Rice plantings last year were reduced by about 25 percent, said Jim Morris, spokesman for the

California Rice Commission.Farmers grow increasingly frustrated over decisions like this

because data shows there was ample water in 2014 to supply minimal deliveries to growers

based on previous dry years with similar or less water in the federal water system.Using a chart

labeled ―doing less with more‖ Mike Wade, executive director of the California Farm Water

Coalition illustrated this by showing that in 1992 nearly one million fewer acre feet of water was

available in lakes Folsom and Shasta than there is today; that year agricultural contractors

received 25 percent of their federal allotment.The short answer to that discrepancy can be seen in

actions taken under the federal Endangered Species Act and the 1992 Central Valley Project

Improvement Act, which over the years have throttled back agricultural access to water long-

considered available to California farmers.

This was exacerbated in recent years with pumping restrictions from the California Delta region

into San Luis Reservoir near Los Banos to protect fish species in the Delta. San Luis Reservoir

was built in the 1960s to stabilize water deliveries south of the Delta and help provide irrigation

water to millions of acres of farmland in the San Joaquin Valley.According to Wade, from Dec.

15, 2014 through Jan. 26 the impacts of regulatory constrictions on Delta pumping meant that

over 315,000 acre feet of water that could have been stored in San Luis Reservoir instead was

allowed to flow out to sea.By comparison the 1992 federal surface water allocation to farmers

was about 500,000 acre feet.

―This is not the drought causing this problem,‖ Wade said. ―It‘s the regulators doing this.‖Wade

has consistently challenged the state‘s success at protecting fish as environmental regulations

that went into effect decades ago to protect endangered fish still seem to not be working.Water

shortages to districts like Westlands Water District, which covers 614,000 acres of land in Fresno

and Kings Counties, has severely cut back the acreage of crops like processing tomatoes, melons,

garlic, lettuce, broccoli, cabbage and cotton.It has also hurt the 100,000-plus acres of permanent

crops grown in America‘s largest agricultural water district.Gayle Holman, spokesperson for

Westlands Water District, said farmers there fallowed 220,000 acres – over 340 square miles – of

farmland due to the Bureau of Reclamation‘s decision to curb agricultural water deliveries in

California.



18


―Now we‘re looking at another zero allocation and anticipate that last year‘s figure of 220,000

acres may go even higher,‖ Holman said.Westlands has federal contracts to provide water to 700

family-owned farms averaging 875 acres in size that historically have produced more than 60

different commodities.For senior water rights holders like Los Banos farmer Canon Michael this

year‘s news, though expected, still stings.―This is just horrible behavior on their part,‖ said

Michael, who farms several thousand acres in the central part of the San Joaquin Valley.Last

year‘s water shortage forced Michael to fallow about 1,000 acres of prime land that could have

grown melons and other annual crops.

Michael is making cropping decisions for 2015 and expects to fallow at least what was left idle

last year, though that number could grow as water availability is arguably worse than last

year.Michael says he does not expect to receive the minimum 75 percent water allocation the

federal government is mandated to provide him under terms of the water contract he has with

them.Michael says he will likely focus on planting processing tomatoes and extra-long staple

cotton. California tomato canneries say they want 15 million tons for their operations while ELS

cotton prices have been positive, he said.

Along with the thousand acres left idle last year, Michael cut irrigation schedules to his alfalfa

crop, leaving him with five cuttings instead of his typical seven.According to Michael, a decision

earlier this year by State Water Board Executive Director Thomas Howard to stop pumping pulse

flows from storm runoff into San Luis Reservoir killed any opportunity for the state to bank

water and allocates it to farms.―Any pumping at all during these storms would have helped,‖

Michael said.Howard‘s decision seems to fly in the face of the emergency drought declaration

California Gov. Edmund G. Brown, Jr. signed last year that ordered state agencies to streamline

water transfers and relax regulatory restrictions on Delta pumping into San Luis Reservoir.

California Citrus Mutual President Joel Nelsen said Howard‘s decision to halt pumping did not

need to take place when it did and arguably should have been made by the full board, though the

water board did grant Howard the authority to make such a decision if necessary.For the Friant

Water Authority, which moves water along the San Joaquin Valley‘s east side from Chowchilla

to Bakersfield via the Friant-Kern Canal, the water they consistently rely upon has likewise dried

up as the Bureau of Reclamation takes water otherwise earmarked for FWA and gives it to senior

water rights holders elsewhere in the Valley.Friant saw it‘s first-ever zero allocation in 2014 and

now faces a back-to-back allotment of no water.

According to FWA General Manager Ron Jacobsma the district is in worse shape this year

because carry-over water is no longer available and groundwater resources are severely



19


stressed.Last year over 200,000 acre feet of Friant water from Millerton Lake near Fresno was

channeled down the San Joaquin River to the Mendota Pool to meet federal obligations with

exchange contractors – these are the senior-rights holders that includes Michael and others in his

area.That move drained Millerton to less than 200,000 acre feet of storage today. Early 2015

snow surveys reveal very little snowpack in the watershed that feeds Millerton, meaning the lake

will suffer further as the year progresses. Its capacity is 520,000 acre feet.

Jacobsma predicts water prices for farmers able to find it could eclipse last year‘s prices, which

according to reports exceeded $3,000 per acre foot to growers.Growers of permanent crops like

tree nuts and citrus are particularly hard hit by this second year of zero allocation.Almond and

pistachio growers saw lighter-than-expected harvests in part due to lack of water. Chilling hours

for the crops were also thought to play a role in the shorter crops.Citrus growers too – in

California many of these groves are served by FWA – expect considerably worse conditions in

2015 as some have no groundwater.

Nelsen estimates that about 10,000 acres of California citrus was impacted by the zero allocation

with upwards of 50,000 acres made vulnerable by short groundwater supplies.In a statement

released by CCM, Nelsen wrote: ―Since 1992 over seven million acre feet of water has been

transferred away from landowners in the southern San Joaquin Valley with no accountability as

to the environmental successes achieved. Since 1992 those sourcing water from the Friant system

have been paying additional dollars per acre foot for environmental enhancements with no

accountability.

The state of California has over 320 species listed as endangered and yet all the efforts have not

led to one species being removed from the ESA list.‖During last year‘s report to county

supervisors on the state of Fresno County agriculture, county Agricultural Commissioner Les

Wright said the 2013 crop report revealed only a partial impact to county Ag values as the

drought and water allocations primarily impacted growers on the western half of the county.

For the first time in modern history Fresno County‘s Ag value fell two years in a row from its

record high in 2011. Because of water constraints, Wright expects his total Ag value – which

typically has been the highest in the nation – to fall once again when 2014 numbers are

compiled.―We have to be the only state in the nation and the only nation on earth establishing

policies that destroys the production of food,‖ said Nelsen.

EDF Voices: People on the Planet

How a California rice farmer uses the market to protect

wildlife - and boost profits Ann Hayden / Published March 10, 2015 in Ecosystems

Meet John Brennan, a farm

manager for the Knaggs Ranch in

California‘s Central Valley who is

exploring the latest market

incentives to boost farm profits

while protecting his land.―Farmers

are environmentalists, too,‖

Brennan says. ―Programs like this

will help us fulfill our responsibility

to nature and to coming

generations.‖It's all coming together

on sprawling, water-soaked rice

fields that are part of the 1,700-acre

farm he has overseen for the past 10-plus years and co-owned of since 2011.

Exchange compensates farmers

A project on Knaggs Ranch is helping to keep water on the fields during a time and at a volume

critical to support salmon nurseries while providing beneficial habitat for water fowl and shore

birds.By adjusting land management to benefit such species, Brennan is generating conservation

outcomes that he hopes can be sold as a commodity to private and public investors through

the Central Valley Habitat Exchange. Potential investors include state agencies seeking credits to

meet mitigation requirements or restoration mandates.

The region southwest of Sacramento was once dominated by marshes that flanked the

Sacramento River and its tributaries and created vital seasonal floodplain habitat for waterfowl

and fish such as the Chinook salmon. Only 5 percent of these floodplain habitats remain after a

century of agricultural expansion and reservoir construction.Brennan has committed to the

Exchange because he believes that compensating landowners for good management practices

and helping them diversify their income beyond just farming can be one of the best ways for

agriculture to accommodate native species. He also believes that once other land managers learn

of the program and its rewards, they‘ll get onboard, too.

Adding carbon credits to the mix

There may soon be yet another opportunity to levy market forces for the benefit of Knaggs

Ranch.This spring, the California Air Resources Board is expected to approve the first crop-

based standards for rice farmers to generate carbon credits in the state's cap-and-trade market.

Brennan hopes the program will help his farm earn new revenue as it reduces greenhouse gas

emissions from its rice fields.

With proven success in the field for Habitat Exchanges as well as carbon markets, such programs

are now ready to be scaled up to boost food production while maintaining profitable farms, a safe

environment and healthy people.Agriculture accounts for about 10 percent of greenhouse gas

emissions released in the United States today, and forward-looking farmers such as Brennan see

an opportunity to help cut such pollution without hurting their bottom line.Such incentive-based

programs "help us diversify our income beyond just farming," he says.

Brantley Reminds Farm Bill Extended Deadlines

Approach

Now or never

ENGLAND, AR -- USA Rice Federation Chairman Dow

Brantley already updated yields and reallocated base acres

for his Lonoke County, Arkansas farm, but he knows not

everyone has done the same. He warns time is running

out."USDA extended that deadline to March 31, and I doubt

they'll extend it again," he said. "Rice growers need to get

into their local Farm Service Agency (FSA) office, fill out

the paperwork, and also make their ARC or PLC decision. I

did it, it's done, and now I can get back to farming."

FSA officials point out that they are there to help growers understand all their choices as the

deadlines approach."Delaying decisions will make things more difficult for growers and the

Farm Service Agency as we approach the March 31 deadline," said Craig McCain, state

executive director of the Louisiana FSA. "If growers are unsure of what to do, I encourage them

to ask questions. County Offices are there to direct growers to available resources so they may

become more comfortable with the decisions they need to make."

McCain said sign-ups across the state are going well and that rice growers are coming in and

making their elections, but he doesn't want people to wait any longer than necessary. Neither

does Brantley."You just need to make the best choice you can with the information you have," he

said. "These programs are there to help, and while the process can be intimidating, and you're

going to have to live with the decisions you make today for the duration of this Farm Bill, just

letting the deadline lapse is definitely not the right answer. Growers need to exercise their

choices."Brantley added that in addition to getting help from local FSA offices, there are several

decision aid tools available online, and one he found personally helpful was Texas

A&M'sdeveloped by Dr. Joe Outlaw and his team.

WASDE Report Released

WASHINGTON, DC -- The changes made to the U.S. 2014/15 rice supply and use balances this

month are confined to forecast exports, ending stocks, and prices. The 2014/15 all rice export

projection is raised 1 million cwt to 104 million. Long-grain exports are forecast at 72 million,

up 1 million from last month based on larger expected exports to markets in the Western

Hemisphere. The combined medium- and short-grain export projection is unchanged at 32

million. All rice ending stocks are projected at 40.9 million cwt, down 1 million from a month

ago-all in long-grain rice.

Long-grain rice ending stocks are projected at 27.1 million cwt, the

largest since 2010/11. Medium- and short-grain ending stocks are

unchanged at 11.5 million. The 2014/15 long-grain season-average rice

price range is projected at $12.20 to $12.80 per cwt, up 30 cents on each

end of the range. The all combined medium- and short-grain season-

average price range is forecast at $18.10 to $18.90 per cwt, up 20 cents

per cwt on each end of the range. The California medium- and short-

grain rice price is increased 30 cents per cwt to $19.80 to $20.80 per cwt.

The Other States medium- and short-grain rice price is unchanged at

$14.80 to $15.40 per cwt.

Global 2014/15 rice ending stocks are lowered 0.6 million tons primarily due to increase in

consumption. Total supplies for 2014/15 are lowered 37,000 tons as the increase in production is

insufficient to offset the decrease in beginning stocks. Global production is increased 300,000

tons based primarily on increases for India (+500,000) and Sri Lanka (+150,000), partially offset

by a reduction for Thailand(-350,000). The increase in India is based on an expected larger Rabi

crop. Sri Lanka rice production is raised because of an expected increase in plantings and yield

for the Maha crop.

Thailand 2014/15 rice crop is lowered 350,000 tons to 19.15 million due to a reduction in dry-

season plantings resulting from an on-going drought and a reduction in irrigation water

availability concentrated in the Central Region. Thailand 2014/15 crop would be the smallest

since 2006/07. The reduction in 2014/15 global beginning stocks is due primarily to reductions

for Burma and Malaysia. Global rice consumption (includes residual) is 500,000 tons with the

largest increases for China and India. Global rice exports are raised 400,000 tons due mostly to

increases for Burma, India, and the United States. Global imports are raised for China, Saudi

Arabia, and Venezuela.
