Increasing food security

Rice is the most important human food, eaten by more than half of the world’s population every

day. In Asia, where 90% of rice is consumed, ensuring there is enough affordable rice for everyone,

or rice security, is equivalent to food security. In Africa and Latin America, rice is becoming a more

important staple too. Much of IRRI’s work is around helping increase rice production to ensure

food security - particularly for those people most at risk of not getting enough food.

Food security is also recognized

as being more than just providing

people with enough calories to

live on, but ensuring people have

enough nutrients for optimal

health too. IRRI is working on

developing healthier rice varieties

to help those who mostly depend

on rice can get more nutrients into

their diet to reduce malnutrition.

Over a 25-year period, Filipino

farmers have gained an additional

US$52 (Php 2,300) per hectare

from using improved rice

varieties derived from the breeding work of the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI).

The study covered three major rice-producing countries in Southeast Asia – the Philippines,

Indonesia, and Vietnam. IRRI works with all three countries' agricultural research and extension

systems to advance its improved rice and distribute it as new varieties to local farmers.

The Philippines, a rice-eating country, has mostly small rice farms, averaging 1.7 hectares, and rice

is grown across different kinds of environments.

About My Last Holiday

Last weeks, I and my

friends spent our holiday

at Kompong Som. This is

one of beautiful beaches in

Kompong Som. It took

three hours to take there.

We concentrated in bus

station. At 5 A.M we

started our trip by bus.

Although I feel tired after

three long hours but sea

air made me re-excited.

We arrange our bags and

after that we quickly

swum in blue sea. The weather was very nice. The golden light spread in white

sand. Tiny waves crashing onto the beach. It is suitable for swimming. After

swimming, we started to build sandcastles, listened the sound of the waves, felt

the salted taste of sea and enjoyed some special foods. In the afternoon, we rode

around on the road from back of the beach to font of the beach by double-

bicycles. That was a wonderful sight. One sight is sea, the others is mountain. It

really made me forget everything to relax. And then, we decided climb to some

mountains. Sightseeing is as beautiful as the other places. So we took many

photograph. We can saw mountain, houses and wide sea. When we climb down

the mountain, we bought some souvenir for our friends. A day go by so fast. I

wanted to stay there longer but we had to come back to work the day after. The

trip was short but it had a strong impression on me and I had many memories

with my friends. We came back Phnom Penh city and felt comfortable after a

good holiday.
