Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rice Postharvest Losses in Developing Countries: Part 1. A 1978 Survey of Rice Postharvest Losses During Threshing, Drying, Parboiling, Milling, and the Potential for Reducing Such Losses in Developing Countries; Part 2. Selected Bibliography of Rice Postharvest Publications This situation is recognized and has been discussed from philosophical and technological viewpoints in a Department of State Seminar in Foreign Policy and by fao the International Rice Research Institute (irri) and others familiar with the rice situation The increased pro duction resulting from the introduction of new rice varieties has stimulated the need for technologies that are simple and inexpensive, yet faster and more efficient than traditional technologies. Thus, the possibility of two or three rice crops per year has increased the need for faster and more efficient land preparation, fertilization, harvesting and postharvest processing.

Download or read book Post harvest losses in rural urban value chains Evidence from Ethiopia written by Minten, Bart and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2019-09-12 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We study post-harvest losses (PHL) in important and rapidly growing rural-urban value chains in Ethiopia. We analyze self-reported PHL from different value chain agents – farmers, wholesale traders, processors, and retailers – based on unique large-scale data sets for two major commercial commodities, the storable staple teff and the perishable liquid milk. PHL in the most prevalent value chain pathways for teff and milk amount to between 2.2 and 3.3 percent and 2.1 and 4.3 percent of total produced quantities, respectively. We complement these findings with primary data from urban food retailers for more than 4,000 commodities. Estimates of PHL from this research overall are found to be significantly lower than is commonly assumed. We further find that the emerging modern retail sector in Ethiopia is characterized by half the level of PHL than are observed in the traditional retail sector. This is likely due to more stringent quality requirements at procurement, sales of more packaged – and therefore better protected – commodities, and better refrigeration, storage, and sales facilities. The further expected expansion of modern retail in these settings should likely lead to a lowering of PHL in food value chains, at least at the retail level.

Download or read book Advances in Rice Postharvest Loss Reduction Strategies in Africa Through Low Grade Broken Rice Fractions and Husk Value Addition written by Danbaba Nahemiah and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paddy production in African is increasing at a significantly impressive rate due to increased public and private sector investment, the introduction of high yielding varieties and improved production practices. But about 40% or more of this quantity does not reach the table of consumers largely due to post-harvest losses. These losses are subdivided into physical grain loss (PGL) and grain quality loss (GQL). Efforts towards reducing these losses through valorisation of low quality rice and processing by-products has received attention over the last few years. Innovative development and out scaling of simple, cost effective, adoptable and well-defined practical technology to convert low grade milled rice to nutrient dense value-added products that could be used for family meals or weaning purposes and utilization of rice husk for energy is the new way to go. This paper reviews major advance made especially by the Africa-Wide Taskforce on rice processing and value addition and its partners in developing strategies for minimizing postharvest loss in Africa through the development of technologies for utilization of broken rice fractions and rice husk to reduce postharvest losses. Major challenges mitigating the adoption of this technologies and possible opportunities in the rice postharvest value chain that can attract investment for the improvement of rice production and reduction in rice postharvest losses are also outlined. This synthesis we believe will help in providing future direction for research and support for sustainable rice postharvest system in Africa.
