The Outlook For The Asian Rice Seed Market-Ken Research

Introduction: The global rice seed industry analysis is valued to be worth over USD 6 Billion in the year 2017 and is expected to grow with a CAGR of 7.4% for the period 2018-2023.  The relatively slow growth of the market is due to the fact that most of the rice produced is used for domestic consumption with a very small portion being exported for trade. The dominance of rice seeds is noted primarily in the Asia Pacific region with Asia Pacific having 90% of the market share in 2016. The next largest market is Africa with a market share of 4.95%. Technological advancement and increased adoption of technology into agriculture in countries like India and China is expected to lead to Asia Pacific being the fastest growing market as well. The Seed Industry analysis explains the current scenario and the market opportunity for the rice seed market.

Production Level: Approximately 9% of the rice produced globally is exported. The primary producers of rice seed market are the Asia Pacific countries as they are also the primary consumers of rice, with deficits being adjusted between neighboring countries. There has been an increase in attempts to export more quantities of rice there by helping rice contribute to trade levels. There have been attempts to boost rice seed production and trade using co operational efforts between countries. For example, the RISTE project aims at developing and enabling the environment to promote seed trade and knowledge-sharing on HYV rice seeds between India and Bangladesh.

Environment: Aside from the predominant consumption patterns that exist for Asia Pacific countries which have led to them being the major consumers of rice, the environment for the growth of rice is ideally suited in Asia Pacific regions with wet marshlands that have adequate rainfall. Rice is the main source of income for hundreds of thousands of rural farmers and is one of the predominant crops in India and China. The importance of cultivating rice is not just for consumption but also as a source of livelihood for many farmers in the Asia Pacific region. The main countries producing rice are China, India, Vietnam and Thailand. These 4 countries make up about 75% of the Asia Pacific production.

Hybrid Rice: Considering the major increase in popularity with hybrid plants which has been growing since the 1980’s, there have been many introductions of hybridization into rice seeds as well. Although there is no mainstream variety of Genetically Modified rice sold commercially, several have been approved for commercialization. There are several organizations around the world, including IRRI, that are using genetic modification tools to produce superior strains of rice. IRRI is developing a way to commercially launch a Genetically Modified variety of rice, called Golden Rice, which is expected to offer a practical solution to the shortage in dietary vitamin A. Golden Rice was one of the seven winners of the 2015 Patents for Humanity Awards by the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The variety is still under development. With increasing anticipated demand for food grains, the adoption of GM rice seeds for commercial farming is not far away. In 2015, hybrid rice seed production in China was calculated at 239,000 metric tons, similar to the production in 2014, whereas acreage increased by 4%, to 97,000 hectares. The total supply in 2015-2016 was estimated at 339,000 metric tons, including 100,000 metric tons in carry-in stocks. Owing to the success of hybrid rice technology in China, in 1989, systematic research efforts on hybrid rice were initiated in India, when the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) launched a special goal-oriented and time-bound project on the ‘Promotion of research and development efforts on hybrids in selected crops’.

Development: Zinc-enriched Boro paddy BRRI-62 and BRRI-74 varieties invented by the Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI) have been seeing success through high yield cultivation in multiple farms across various districts in Bangladesh. These varieties give the expected yield within 100 days and those have been found to be safe from blast disease attack. Farmers in Bangladesh are patiently waiting to grow these strains saying they would cultivate the plant if the seeds became available in the market In 2018, 1,500 farmers have cultivated zinc-enriched Boro paddy on roughly 350 acres of land at 65 villages of 18 unions of the district while only 50 farmers cultivated the variety when the project started in 2013.This represents a major increase in participation for the cultivation of rice. The zinc-enriched Boro paddy can be harvested within 100 days of planting and may yield close to 2000 Kilos per acre if nurtured properly. The local varieties contain 9 to 12 milligrams of zinc per kg while the newly invented zinc-enriched variety contains around 24 milligrams. The cultivation of rice from these seeds presents a major solution for people suffering from Zinc deficiency, especially women and children.

The Real Cost Of Cargo Loss: Ken Research

Introduction: Supply chain strategies are rapidly evolving to provide customers with faster delivery of their products with minimum additional costs that need to be incurred by Logistics suppliers for the purpose of maximizing supply chain value. This is important as there is an impending need for efficient delivery of products which are time bound and critical for important operations such as chemicals, food and beverage products and medicinal supplies. One major factor that has not been addressed well enough which is a major reason for increasing costs of goods is the damage to cargo. While most see the cost of damaged cargo as the total retail value of the cargo, this is a very binary way of looking at the situation.
Market Scenario: Industrial research has calculated that cargo losses have topped USD 55 Billion as of 2015 based on Logistics and Shipping Industry analysis, with theft for that year leading to a loss of USD 22 Billion. The threat of theft has been prominent mainly in poverty entrenched economies, South Africa has seen a 30% increase in the amount of truck jacking for the year 2015. Global cargo theft is expected to increase by USD 1 Billion. The damage that occurred from natural disasters from the preceding 5 years lead to another USD 33 Billion loss in damages and unsalable goods led to a loss of approximately USD 5 Billion for the grocery industry in the year 2014. The impending argument shows that ineffective care of the goods has led to major losses for the logistics industry. Aside from these natural threats, an increased threat to cargo safety has been the impending influence exerted by terrorist activities which have led to losses in the billions. Aside from terrorism, theft and nature, another major participant in losses for logistics and manufacturers has been the warfare situation in third world economies causing a loss of about USD 700 Million to Jordanian trucking in 2011 alone, unfair wage practices leading to a 58% increase in strikes in China for the year 2015 causing another loss of USD 27 Million to the footwear industry in China.
Implication: The damage caused due to cargo is one of the most important reasons manufacturers raise their prices and logistics costs increase. The loss of goods is not just calculated as the retail value of the goods; the major issue with that method of calculation is that the opportunity cost of the goods is not taken into account. Lost goods for the manufacturer play a major role in the bottom line of the company and the damage is calculated based on the extent of margin the company operates on. For example, a company working on a 10% profit margin losing USD 1,000 worth of goods would have to have an increase in sales by USD 10,000 to offset the loss of the goods and while this is the immediate impact to the manufacturer, the lost goods represent lost sales for the manufacturer and lost revenue for every stakeholder in the manufacturers value chain, aside from damaging the brand value of each stake holder in the value chain as well. The long term effect leads to losses of customers and therefore, sales for the members of the value chain. This need to recover revenue leads to higher prices for goods causing inflation thereby worsening the economy.
Carrier Liability: While a majority of manufacturers believe the system of carrier liability works as the insurance for their goods that are transported, this system has a major flaw. For a customer using a carrier to transport goods they would have to prove negligence on behalf of the carrier, which is often hard to do. Secondarily, there are statutes which exist to cap the extent of liability, thereby protecting carriers in case of serious damage occurrence. Generally, an ocean carrier is only responsible for up to USD 500 per container. International air carriers generally have a minimal limit (e.g. USD 0.50 per pound). Trucking company carrier liability is also at very low rates per pound, sometimes as low as USD 5 per pound, but often up to USD 25 per pound, as specified in the bill of lading and their tariff rules
Conclusion: The rapid increase in the prices of goods that cause consumers to either abandon the product or face financial burden is a cause of multiple factors but one of the primary causal factors is the requirement to compensate for lost cargo. This is a problem that is plaguing every industry in the logistics sector and requires immediate attention.

Implementation Of Blockchain In Healthcare Provision (Healthcare Industry Analysis)

Introduction: The review of the Healthcare business has led to an increasing need for reforms which would improve the rate of treatment, the cost of availing treatment, the accessibility to a medical professional, the collection of health based data and the integration of analytics and data in healthcare actually showing an improvement in the life and well being of individuals. The most recent reform which has been primarily used in the implementation of a worldwide system for crypto currency has become the new frontier for the tracking and implementation of healthcare based data. Industrial research expects the global market for Block Chain technology to be worth over USD 7 Billion by 2024. This would mean the market for block chain technology is growing with a CAGR of over 37% based on Healthcare Market Research Reports which would make it one of the fastest emerging markets in the world. The implementation of Block Chain technology in healthcare could have massive application in cost reduction as well as in the improvement of treatment for patients but most importantly could lead to a sophisticated method of security for patient medical data.

Block Chain: A block chain is a virtual ledger consisting of all the transactions involved in bit coin. The ledger is virtually a record of all crypto currency transactions which exist on multiple computers, each being a node of the network. These computers handle two parts- validation and updating. The participants in this role are called “Miners” who take transactions and update them in the block chain. The technology works by initial transaction verification using a private and public key. The two keys are used to authenticate any transaction. The authenticated transactions are to be added on the block chain which the miners take care of by solving extremely difficult puzzles which are called hash functions. Solving these functions requires a large amount of computational power and time. The process results in forming an alphanumeric code which is the equivalent of the transaction but encrypts the transaction. Once the transaction is encrypted it is capable of being added to the block chain which then makes the information of the transaction uneditable.

Health Care Application: The implementation of Block Chain in healthcare is expected to be one of the major turning points in the timeline of modern medicine. By 2025, the global block chain health care market is expected to be worth About USD 5.6 Billion. This is from a CAGR of roughly 65.7%. The impact the growth of this market has on the everyday consumers and on industries at large is major owing to a new system of transparency for medical providers and healthcare professionals. Data recording from the industry is securely stored on a network that is virtually impossible to infiltrate but at the same time puts the data in the hands of the right individual, the consumers themselves. The implementation of block chain leads to a new kind of data recording where automation and analytics can be better implemented in a secure and solid manner. Block chain also has easier scalability owing to the ease of addition of nodes in the network. The financial benefit availed is highly profitable in the long term.

Conclusion: The adoption of block chain can save the healthcare industry up to USD 100 billion per year by 2025. One of the biggest beneficiaries of the technology would be pharmaceuticals that lose up to USD 200 billion to counterfeit drugs each year. By enabling complete visibility and transparency throughout the drug supply chain, block chain will help eliminate falsified medication. Health insurance which has been subject to growing number of frauds, especially those conducted by the providers, is also expected to witness up to USD 10 billion reduction in costs annually. The use of block chain for healthcare data exchange will contribute the largest market share throughout the forecast period, reaching a value of USD 1.89 billion by 2025. The disparate need for implementing block chain in healthcare could not be more obvious considering the primary functionality of block chain is that it is a ledger that is incapable of being hacked. The implementation is perfect for any field that requires secure data. A majority of healthcare institutions are already looking into implementing their own block chain network for the storage and protection of their data and the trend is evident to be followed in the industry.
