Milling Assessment
Rice serves as the central component of the agricultural system in Laos, contributing to more than 90% of the overall crop production. In the Lao People's Democratic Republic (PDR), the process of rice milling is predominantly carried out at the village level and in small-scale mills. These mills are characterized by inadequate equipment and possess an average capacity of approximately 6 metric tons of paddy per day. Although precise statistics are lacking, it is likely that these mills are responsible for around 90% of the rice milling operations conducted throughout the nation.
A common practice among Lao farmers is the storage of rice paddy on their private land, serving as a dual purpose of sustenance and asset preservation. When farmers engage in the sale of their rice, it is customary for them to do so by either directly transacting with rice mills or intermediaries. According to estimates, the number of rice mills in Laos exceeds 20,000. However, the bulk of these establishments are characterized by their modest scale and restricted production capacity. A number of prominent rice mills are currently undertaking initiatives aimed at enhancing rice yields and improving rice quality within the primary rice cultivation areas.
Rice millers have a choice of three different ways of operating and often combine two or three:
-
Custom milling: Farmers or small traders bring their paddy to the mill. If the miller keeps the bran, there is no charge for milling. This is a common practice. The bran is sold to poultry and pig farmers or to small traders who bring their paddy to the mill. Otherwise, there is a milling fee. Custom milling is usually done by small and medium size mills;
-
Commercial milling: The miller buys paddy and sells rice directly to the market retailers of through intermediary traders. Millers have the requisite storage capacity and financial resources may store paddy up to 10 months to take advantage of higher prices in August and September, preceding the new harvest.
-
Contract milling: For Government institutes, for the provincial Departments of Commerce, for the SEFCP, and sometimes for international organizations such as WFP.
Rice millers in the Vientiane area often buy paddy at lower prices from Khammouan and Savannakhet. Village mills and the small District mills tend to be very busy during May and June just after the harvest of dry season paddy and during November and December following the main wet season harvest. Other millers, especially larger capacity mills, store paddy and mill during the rainy season.
