Larryfest: The policy is already in place to make it attractive to venture into. One good thing about food production is that the market is ready just waiting for you. |

martowskin1: I never knew someone is going through the same thing as me. The cost of a derica of our local rice is within 280-400. Before border closure the foreign one was within 220-250..I am not against border closure but price control should be done because that will determine the success of this policy! |

DaudaAbu: Cost of production of rice is too high in Nigeria... Our products are not competitive .... Thats the general problem of Agric value chain in Nigeria..... Thats the reason our local rice can,t compete with foreign rice.... Let FG fix the rice value chain for a bag of 50kg local rice to go for btn N5000 and N6000 at retail prices..... We will all abandon foreign rice that goes for N17,000 plus.... There will be no motivation to smuggle rice ....foreign rice will have a natural death.... Border control can only last for a while ....and we are back to status quo again... 1 Like |

Ebonyi State sells de-stoned Rice. Visit any store that has the Abakaliki rice and you would get a chaff and stone free rice. 1 Like |

mindtricks: I can't say of most programmes of Government, but on this, the Federal Government has put in efforts that is commendable enough to indicate it is serious. From Bank of Agriculture loans to CBN programmes and forex restrictions to Boarder Closure. These are very definite and bold steps towards encouraging and boosting local Food Production. I put it to you that if you have land and ready you will get the needed funding. Food production is lucrative. The market is there waiting for you already. |

shakol91:Most of them don't buy destoned rice and yet fail to manually picture out the stones and expect not to eat stones. It's like cooking beans without picking it. Been eating abakaliki rice since 2016 and I've never eaten stones. I use to go the the rice mill, but and destone it there until I moved to a rather place and started buying it from the market. When it comes to this local rice of a thing, our people are just looking down on it or feel inferior because it's not in foreign bags. Some of the foreign rice they eat are rebagged local rice. |
Re: Nigerian Rice: A Call For Better Rice Mills by MISSCONGENIALITY(f): 5:18pm On Oct 16, 2019 |
Tomiwa69:they didn't destone it and the cook didn't bother to pick it. The probably bought the cheap one. If you go to rice mill, they all have grades. Just like whey other thing is grade by grade. You can the one you can afford and proceed to destone it which is also not expensive. If you can buy a bag of foreign rice 20k, why can't you buy local rice of 14 to 16k? I know out problem is beyond closure of border but we have good rice here. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Or mini destoning machines so people can clean the rice themselves? My impression is some of the stony rice is either improperly processed or is part of the residue from the correctly refined one, just guessing sha. |
