Abstract

Reduction of rice kernel LOSSES is one of the most prominent concerns in rice growing areas, including Guilan province, Iran. In order to identify factors affecting milled RICE BREAKAGE LOSSES as in Guilan province, a research was conducted based on a descriptive survey with participation of 75 rice mill owners from Guilan province. A semi-structured interview with 5 experienced mill owners and 3 rice milling experts was initially used to design the preliminary questionnaire. The final questionnaire was designed as based upon the results of interviews and related researches. The considered factors were classified as “Agronomical”, “Technical”, “Knowledge-Skills”, “Economical”, and “Policy” ones. Statistical analysis of the results related to secondary questionnaires indicated “rice harvest time”, “threshing the PADDY applying either inappropriate PADDY threshers or PADDY combine harvesters”, “the low skill level of PADDY dryer operator”, “shortage of financial sources to renew and update the RICE MILLS”, and “an enhancement of the level of knowledge of rice mill owners comprised the most important agronomical, technical, knowledge-skill, economical, and policy making factors, respectively. In this regard, financial and educational support of the government for farming activities of PADDY farmers, enhancing the level of knowledge of PADDY thresher operators, as well as combine harvester operators, promoting the skill level of rice mill operators and owners, and supportive policies for renewing and updating of the RICE MILLS are among the factors effective in reducing the RICE BREAKAGE LOSSES in Guilan province. A final comparison of the studied categories showed that the category of economic factors exerted the most impacts among all the factors studied. Therefore, in order to reduce RICE BREAKAGE LOSSES (as Guilan province), promotion of the economical basis of PADDY farmers and that of rice mill owners were emphasized through codification, and execution of the supportive policies, throughout the Province.
