“…Drying the paddy manually also poses higher food safety and quality concerns because of an increased risk of contamination with stones, dust or dirt. Greater losses can also occur because of scattering or pests (Samaddar et al, 2017). This was also observed by the research team in Senegal, where the workers hired by the three millers -most of them casual -placed the paddy in the sun without protection.…”

“…It has undergone value addition that includes processing its waste (husk) into micro silica used to prepare advanced materials like SiC, Si3N4, elemental Si, and Mg2Si for economic benefit (Chandrasekhar, Satyanarayana, Pramada, Raghavan, & Gupta, 2003). In another development, improvements that encapsulate rice production's value-added equipment have been made beyond mechanical threshers, winnowers, harvesters, and combine harvesters to include a suitable combine machine for drying and segregating immature rice grains (Samaddar et al, 2017). Brown rice, ready-made mixes, and noodles are rich products that have not only been commercialized at the regional level but have penetrated the global market due to their value-added contribution (Samaddar et al, 2017).…”

Pitfalls and potential pathways to commercialization of indigenous food crops, fruits, and vegetables in Africa

All foods have local origins, but their commercialization and global acceptance remain challenging. Agricultural commercialization involves producing agricultural products for financial gain and market purposes beyond family consumption. Indigenous foods have vast societal benefits, including cultural, employment, medicinal, food security-related, nutritional, and financial. However, indigenous food consumption and demand are constantly declining because exotic foods are replacing them, despite recent campaigns for their increased commercialization. The study investigates the challenges associated with indigenous food commercialization, possible pathways to commercialization, and the role of the government in commercializing indigenous food. It offers a hypothesized structure and essential blueprint for sustainable indigenous food (crop) commercialization. The methodology involved a review of the literature using various search engines, scholarly sites, and print books, combining quantitative and qualitative research. Scaling indigenous food for sustainable commercialization beyond dependency on the wild product takes specific steps, including domestication, certification, and effective government-private collaboration. Policies to improve the sustainability of indigenous food are urgently required to save them from extinction and meet future demand. Many indigenous foods are hindered by low-status perception, poor value addition, inadequate knowledge of their potential, lack of market penetration, and global acceptability challenges. Indigenous food commercialization lacks a holistic and systematic approach involving careful planning, procedural steps, and an aggressive market-spreading mechanism for global adoption. An excellent strategic relationship between government and stakeholders is a prerequisite for indigenous food commercialization, but the onus is on the government to commit to indigenous food commercialization programs.

“…For reliable estimates, postharvest losses have also been taken into account; thus, this study accounted for 9 percent [62] postharvest loss of rice. Furthermore, rice is only consumed in processed forms; raw rice must be milled before being consumed.…”

How Far Will Climate Change Affect Future Food Security? An Inquiry into the Irrigated Rice System of Peninsular India

et al. 2023

Climate change poses a great challenge to food security, particularly in developing nations where important food crops such as rice and wheat have been grown in large quantities. The study investigates food security using an integrated approach, which comprises forecasting future rice production using the AquaCrop model and demand for rice using an economic model. The proposed approach was evaluated in the Cauvery delta zone in the eastern part of Tamil Nadu, which is a major rice-growing hotspot in peninsular India. Our results showed that the future rice productivity of the Cauvery delta region would be reduced by 35% between 2021 and 2040 and by 16% between 2041 and 2050. However, the supply–demand gap addressing food security in the Cauvery delta zone is positive for the future, as evidenced by the availability of surplus rice of 0.39 million tonnes for the period 2021–2030 and 0.23 million tonnes and 0.35 million tonnes for the periods 2031–2040 and 2041–2050, respectively. Nevertheless, as the neighboring regions are relying on rice production from the Cauvery delta, this surplus rice production is potentially not sufficient to meet the demand of the state as a whole, which suggests climate change may pose a severe threat to the food security of the Tamil Nadu State. These findings emphasize the necessity of performing regional-level food security assessments with a focus on developing location-specific policy options to mitigate the adverse effects of climate-induced anomalies on food security.
