Some 80 percent of the world’s rice production is grown by
smallholder farmers in developing countries, according to the
International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). From Bangladesh to Benin,
these farmers continue to develop different solutions to improve the
process of rice production. These methods include using flotation to
sort seeds, and parboiling, which removes impurities and reduces grain
breakage. The Africa Rice Centre (AfricaRice) has developed a simple solution to help farmers share this knowledge: Farmer to farmer videos
Working with researchers, rice farmers and processors, they have
developed a series of videos to instruct farmers, including, manual
seed sorting manually and by flotation, seed drying and preservation in
Bangladesh; rice quality and parboiling in Benin; land preparation for
planting rice in Burkina Faso; and seedbed preparation, transplanting,
weeding and soil fertility management in Mali.
