Japan's Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries is reportedly moving to set the standard support rate for feed rice at up to 90,000 yen per 10 ares under a new paddy policy, based on average regional yields. Farmers growing high-yielding varieties and using direct seeding would be among those eligible.
A higher subsidy for feed rice encourages Japanese farmers to plant more feed rice instead of table rice, which could lift domestic feed-grain supply and modestly ease reliance on imported corn and feed inputs for livestock buyers.
