• Seed quality• Poor crop husbandry practices• Improper use of farm inputs• Poor straw management• Poor water management• Inadequate water supply for irrigation • Pests (Weeds, diseases and insects) • Extension services• Lack of/ credit facilities to support production
CONSTRAINTS FACING THE RICE INDUSTRY

National seed industry policy
• Aims at giving direction for sustainable development of rice seed in order to avail high quality seed and planting materials to farmers.
• Also geared towards harmonizing all seed related activities and legislations
MIAD tasked in producing certified seed for Irrigated rice cultivars:- Bs 217 &370, BW 196, IR 2793-80-1, ITA 310
While KARI = NERICA’s:- N1, N4, N10& N11

ROADMAPPurification of standard seed for all the five irrigated varieties commenced with stakeholders from rice sector meeting in MIAD center to select phenotypically ‘Super’ panicles from the foundation seed crop

Healthy looking panicles were selected
Given green light

November 2010 Panicle selection= 750 panicles
January 2011 Panicle to row =40lines of each cultivar
S/R 2011-2012=> 10m2 plots for the lines which qualified thorough inspection by stakeholders (KEPHIS)
Av of 5Kgs from each line harvested from lines passed for next stage
S/R2012 => second bulking 1acre plot each variety
Qualified plots harvested, mixed & bulked
Breeders seed (white label)

Ten square meter plots

• Supply the available breeders material to seed unit to bulk= Target Av of 10 metric tones by end of the year for all the varieties
• BW 196 variety which initially had unfamiliar characteristics of awning was counter checked in conjunction with KEPHIS and stakeholders and the descriptor revised accordingly for certification
• Repeat of the whole process for maintenance and availability of high quality seed for commercialization by farmers
WAY FORWARD
