I started consuming less rice (carbs) about a year ago and experienced many health benefits. But good luck trying to get Sri Lankans to eat less rice. 😢
Can’t we use mid-size storage structures for rice, akin to silos for corn in US? If this is applicable, giving engineering assistance to farmers so that they can build their own silos may be a solution.
70/80 jvp destroyed all mill and storing facilities belongs to government, paddy marketing board. creating capacity and reach issues. this opened doors to private giants/oligopoly.
