According to the Provincial Agriculturist Office (PAO), traders give the price and they compute this base on the production inputs of rice in Pangasinan. As of 2014, the table shown below is the entire price list of palay:

February 2014
P21.36
March 2014
P22.37

P22.94
June 2014
P23.61

The Provincial Agriculturist Office (PAO) also coordinates with Municipal Agriculturist about the appropriate pricing. According to the Provincial Agriculturist Office (PAO), the continuous increase of price is due to the continuous low supply of rice during the first 6 months of 2014.

    The rice market is our product concerned in this assignment. As a pantry necessity for the Asians, the rice market has an inelastic demand. Also, it has no close substitutes or perfect substitutes. This makes the importance of rice inevitable. On the other hand, the rice market has an elastic supply. Due to the wide variety of rice provided in the market, the quantity supplied by sellers tends to respond substantially to slight changes in price.…

    Buffer Stocks

    • 759 Words
    • 4 Pages

    If there are good conditions for growing rice one year, supply will increase. This will lower the price of rice, and possibly causing a surplus, where producers produce more than consumers are willing and able to purchase, i.e. supply > demand. When this is the case, there is a ‘bumper crop’, and the administrators of the buffer stock scheme will purchase the surplus. In the case of global rice, supply shocks in the form of typhoons have led to a bad year for rice production (Fig. 2). Furthermore, the Philippines has limited ability to ‘boost production’, due to limitations on some factors of production. The Philippines have little arable land left, and thus cannot increase the number of rice plantations. This inability to boost supply, coupled with a growing population, mean that supply per person is decreasing. This inability contributes to the supply shock experienced by the Philippines.…

    The British colonization of Jamaica started in 1655 (Jamaica EB) and British rule lasted until 1964(Jamaica: History CW). British colonization of Jamaica benefitted the economy which created many haves; however, the Europeans and natives inability to coexist made many have nots. Colonization allowed Britain to produce sugar and jobs for Europeans. Britain tried to force their culture on Jamaican natives and African Jamaicans, in addition to creating one of the largest slave trade operations at the time. The colonization of Jamaica was beneficial to The Europeans because it gave them many new crops that funded the wars they were fighting, and created job opportunities for whites.…

    Report on Hindustan Zinc

    • 11879 Words
    • 48 Pages

    We initiate coverage on Hindustan Zinc Limited (HZL) with an Overweight rating. Going forward, lead and silver will continue their upward volume trend as zinc volumes remain flat due to the Vizag smelter shutdown. A ramp-up of the same will maintain the earnings momentum, albeit at a slower pace. Despite global economic turmoil, zinc consumption grew by 15.2% in CY10 and a further 7.9% in CY11. Going forward we expect zinc consumption to grow by around 5% in CY12E and 5.2% in CY13E. Hence, we expect prices of the metal to remain largely firm, which will also be supported by high marginal costs of production globally. However, with almost 100% exposure to commodity prices, further upside seems capped, unless the commodity cycle improves or a renewal in volume expansion happens. At the CMP, the stock trades at a fairly attractive valuation of 8.5x FY13E price/earnings and 4.5x EV/EBITDA. Further, net of cash P/E currently stands at only 5x FY13E.…

    Rice (Oryza sativa) is the most important food crop of the Philippines and is the staple item of Filipino diet. The country is the eight largest producer of rice in the world, accounting for 2.8% of global rice production. In 2010, nearly 15.7 million metric tons of palay were produced, which accounted for 21.86% of gross value added in agriculture and 2.37% of GNP. The national average yield, however, remained relatively low compared with that of other Asian countries. The country is also the world's largest rice importer in 2010; about 10% of local demand is supplied by imports (FAOSTAT, 2010; IRRI, 2010). Rice is produced extensively in Luzon, Western Visayas, Southern Mindanao, and Central Mindanao. Since the mid-1960s yields have increased…

    India is one of the largest and most important countries in the world in export of rice. The All India Rice Exporters Association (AIREA) expects that India could export 4.5 mt of normal rice and another 2.5 mt of aromatic long-grain basmati rice in 2011-12. The USDA Foreign Agriculture Services Report 2012 predicts exports at 7 mt are set to reach second place in the world markets after Thailand, edging out Vietnam. Rice production in India is an important part of the national economy. India is one of the world's largest producers of white rice, accounting for 22% of all world rice production as per FAO in 2011-12. The production reached a record rice production of 103 million tonnes in 2010-11 on the back of better monsoon. Per hectare yields have also arisen to almost 2.2 Tonnes/Hectare. The expected decline in rice production in leading rice exporting nations such as Thailand, Vietnam and Pakistan may also favor India's exporters. Rice production in Thailand, the largest exporter, is expected to decline in 2011-12 due to a damaged crop, following floods. The Thai government's decision to increase its minimum purchase price of rice may also reduce the competitiveness of Thai rice globally. White milled Thai rice, for instance, is expected to be priced at USD600 to USD610 per tonne, higher by USD120 to USD150 per tonne over the comparable variety of Indian rice. The depreciation in the value of the Indian rupee against the US dollar since April 2012 by almost 20% may also benefit rice exporters, as it makes India's rice more competitive globally. A CRISIL study expects the profitability of India's rice millers to increase by 150-200 basis points over the coming FY. The current Minimum Export Price of $700/tonne and $900/tonne for non-basmati rice will also add to FX arbitrage for exporters in rupee terms, thus significantly increasing their profits.…

    One of the problems that arise is pest’s infestation. This results to a low harvest. However there many rat killer that are being sold to the market but many of our farmers cannot afford to buy because it is too expensive and it is not good for the soil. To address the problem of the farmers in maintaining food supplies, I came up with the idea of having a rat killer that is cheaper or affordable and eco-friendly which uses materials that are present to our backyards or if not, materials that can be bought in the market that are in low-price.…
