Rice Crisis

NFA rice, Export rice, and Local rice. Nowadays, we experience the increasing of all local goods in the market whether it is imported or local only and my example is the rice. We love rice right? Our meal is not complete without rice because rice is source of protein and carbohydrates. 

The philippine rice research institute (PhilRice) is asking us all the filipinos out there to be (RICEponsible) it means we should not lavish rice as it is the important part of our needs. We have to learn how to manage it properly by measuring what we could just consume in every meal. Some people tend to waste rice by throwing the left overs.

There is now a order that the NYR aims to “get the attention of policy makers” to enact laws in rice conservation, like serving of half-cup rice at eateries and canteens, serving of brown rice, or pinawa, and restrictions on offering unlimited rice to restaurants or eat-all-you-can.” I think quezon city has now a order like this and in katipunan along in admu. We should be responsible of what we're eating it doesn't mean we cam afford to buy more, we will be irresponsible which is not. Many people only eat once or twice while some don't. Farmers are not just farmers, their job is not a joke so we should learn to pit importance of what we have.
