Onion exports touch record Rs 2,877 crore in 2013/14



India's onion exports jumped by a fourth to a record Rs 2,877 crore in 2013/14, a year when consumers forked out as much as Rs 100 for a kilogram of the bulb.
Export volume, however, dropped 26 per cent to 1.35 million tonnes in the year ended March 31 from 1.82 million tonnes the year before, according to data from the Nashik-based National Horticultural Research and Development Foundation (NHRDF). The previous record for onion exports was Rs 2,834 crore in 2009/10 when the country shipped 1.87 million tonnes.
The average value realised in the export market rose to Rs 21,183 per tonne in 2013/14 from Rs 12,590 a tonne in 2012/13. This helped boost the value of exports.
A monthly analysis of the data shows that the first quarter of the financial year (April to June 2013) accounted for 40 per cent of exports. However, as domestic prices started firming up, the government discouraged exports and shipments declined August onwards. The government increased the minimum export price of the bulb from $650 a tonne in September 2013 to $1,150 a tonne in November. The country also imported onions in small quantities to boost availability.
As domestic availability improved and prices came down after the harvest of the rabi crop, the government started relaxing export prices and finally removed the cap in early March. But this has not helped exports. In March, exports were 100,000 tonnes, down sharply from February's 150,000 tonnes.
R.P. Gupta, Director at NHRDF, says demand for onions in the international market is weak.
"The onion crop has been affected due to unseasonal rains. These are not fit for exports as there is a large time lag between export and actual consumption," he says. In a way, it is good news for domestic consumers. Onion is now available for Rs 25 to Rs 30 per kg. India produces about 16 million tonnes onion annually but consumes only 10-11 million tonnes.

Saving a tradition from going to seed


Large tracts of brackish water fields, suitable for traditional paddy and shrimp cultivation, in the north Malabar region, have been remaining fallow for some time now. Consequently, some of the traditional varieties of paddy with unique qualities, which used to be grown here, are becoming extinct.
(Traditional paddy and shrimp cultivation in the northern districts is known as Kaipad farming and in the south it is Pokkali farming).
But, some of the seeds, conserved in small quantities, are being planted in an effort to revive the traditional varieties.
There are 4,100 hectares of Kaipad fields in Kasaragod, Kannur, and Kozhikode districts. Kannur district has the largest extent of fields.
Paddy seeds used in Kaipad farming are resistant to salinity. These have not been conserved, except for individual efforts by some farmers and groups. The traditional seeds once prevalent were ‘kuthir,’ ‘orkayma,’ ‘orthadiyan,’ ‘chovverian,’ ‘orpandy,’ ‘kuttoosan,’ ‘kandarkutty,’ and ‘balivithu.’ Only ‘kuthir’ and ‘orkayma’ are still being cultivated by farmers.
Chemical fertilizers are not used for the cultivation of these varieties as well as hybrid varieties such as Ezhome-I, II, and III developed by scientists at the Kerala Agricultural University (KAU)’s College of Agriculture at Padannakkad in Kasaragod.
The intervention of the Agency for Aquaculture Development, Kerala (ADAK) for the promotion of traditional paddy and shrimp cultivation systems has helped in the revival of some Kaipad seeds and fields, says Dineshan Cheruvat, ADAK Deputy Director and Manager of the agency’s fish farm at Eranholi, near Thalassery.
A self-help group of beneficiaries, under the ADAK’s integrated traditional farming system, recently gave a tonne of traditional seed varieties to farmers in Ernakulam district, he says.
“A Kaipad farmer recently gave me a handful of ‘orthadiyan’ and ‘chovverian’ seeds, now rare. Efforts are now being made to multiply these at the fish farm,” says Mr. Cheruvat.

Sell small onion in June to get better prices: TNAU to farmers



COIMBATORE: As prices of small onion are expected to increase substantially in June, the Tamil Nadu Agricultural University (TNAU) has advised farmers to store and sell their crop next month. 

An econometric analysis by TNAU's Agri Marketing Intelligence and Business Promotion Centre in the Dindigul market on prices during the last 15 years revealed that they would rule around Rs 2,300 to Rs 2,500 per quintal at farm level during June. 

The expected export demand will also keep the prices higher, which would be more than the cost of storage and loss, including interest charges, it said. 

Hence, farmers could store and sell onion to get higher returns, it added. 
At present, farm gate prices hover around Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,000 per quintal and there are chances of exports picking up next month, TNAU said. 

Onion is grown in 0.38 lakh hectares in Tamil Nadu, with production standing at 4.29 lakh tonnes in 2012-13. 

This was 1.61 per cent higher in area and 22.8 per cent lesser in production compared to last year, which stood at 0.37 lakh hectares and 5.56 lakh tonnes, it said.

Bihar sees Maize revolution with use of hybrid seeds



Maize is the only agricultural crop in Bihar whose productivity is higher than the national average. Bihar produces 4.11 tonne of maize from a hectare compared to the national average of about 2.5 tonne. The state has witnessed a maize revolution over past few years with the help of hybrid seeds.

In the four years ending 2012/13, Bihar's maize production rose 66 per cent to 2.83 million tonne, productivity (output from each hectare) increased 51 per cent to 4.11 tones while the area under the crop rose ten per cent to 0.68 million hectares. Hybrid seed production and field demonstrations for farmers has triggered a maize revolution in the state.

With state productivity much higher than national productivity, area under cultivation is expected to rise as the availability of good quality maize offers significant opportunities for entrepreneurs in the state. However, the level of processing in the state is presently quite insignificant. There is thus a large opportunity for maize processing units which can be set up for making a range of products. Agribusiness giant Cargill's Indian arm procures 2,00,000 to 3,00,000 tonne of maize annually from Bihar, says B K Anand, the Director and Business Head (Grains and Oilseeds Crush) for Cargill India. The Indian unit of Cargill handles a million tonnes of the grain annually.

According to the Directorate of Maize Research, a body under the Agriculture Ministry, the quality of the maize produce has improved steadily over the last few years. "Increased participation of national players and a few multinationals has led to a structural change in the maize ecosystem in Bihar," it said in a report in 2012.

Relief for Western India tea dealers as rain lashes plantations



KOLKATA: Western India tea dealers, who were concerned over the supply of tea from Assam and Bengal only a few days back, have heaved a sigh of relief as rains have lashed two major tea producing regions of the country — Assam and Bengal after a long dry spell that has affected the first flush production. 

The western India retail trade which was anticipating that a rise was imminent , has now decided to remain on a wait and watch mode till July when they will consider whether to jack up prices. 

Western India is one of the largest domestic markets for Indian tea. Western India tea consumption has crossed the national average of 733 gram/capita and is hovering around 900 gram/capita . The tea industry is aiming to achieve a 1kg/ capita consumption in western India where companies like Wagh Bakri, Society, Dhunseri Tea and Girnar are major players.
