It is no longer news that price of rice is skyrocketing in the Nigeria market today after the country slip into recession , a bag of rice sold for N13,000 then is now N19,000 which make it seemly unaffordable for mostly poor Nigerians.

i choose to see only the positives. As much as the high price affects me, lots of people going into rice production is a plus to the country. 80% of half a bag of rice is properly milled local rice...FACT. I have friends who lost jobs and have taken up rice production, and we hear of warehouses in Benin republic overflowing with bags of stored foreign rice. We have been on the wrong path for too long. This is a hard turn, but a good turn. 5 Likes 1 Share |

We import rice from private owned mills of other countries, private individuals conceive the idea, procure the prerequisites and set up a working mill. Here our business moguls do the complete opposite, they rather source forex to import, sell, and make profit than plant, harvest, process and export. @Op, I was expecting "raw materials" to be first on your list, that need to be emphasize upon. The recent tomato processing and packaging company set by Dangote in Kano was shut few months after commissioning due to lack of raw materials. If there are bumper harvests in sequence you will be surprised by the number of new working companies that will springle up with or without federal government's help. Effective solution: This is what the FG is doing and it is yielding good result. To increase local production the FG launched the anchor borrowers scheme, a programme that give loan to farmers at an interest rate of 9% in order to curb the appetite of heavily importing foodstuff that we can produce locally. The programme also covers training the farmers on use of modern farming technology, provision of seed varieties with good yield, and the do's and dont's of irrigation farming. The first state to benefit from this scheme is Kebbi who produced 1.2 million metric tonnes of rice in its first harvest, and currently projecting 1.8 million metric tonnes in this coming harvest. An almost moribund rice mill in kebbi that was set up since 2006 is now working well and has even increase production due to this promising initiative. The Fg has also promised to extend this programme to 13 more states, aiming to replicate Kebbi's success and also sustain it. This I believe is a reasonable solution to the current Rice dilemma we're enveloped in. 4 Likes |

1 and 2 ? The market association and zoning stuff is not necessary. The other points are ok with some modifications. Improved seed varieties with good yield and shorter production time should be aggressively distributed to farmers. Loans to rice farmers, with single digit interest. 1 Like |

The op is a typical example of average Nigerian He lacks basic economics knowledge The prices are high... this means profits are also on the high side and this will naturally push investors to that area.. . But this dose not happen over night Forming association prevent real competitions The rest government is doing.. For me they are doing too much... . |
