closed

The proposed project would provide long-term credit to the private sector for setting up modern integrated rice processing units in major producing areas. Processing capacity created by the project is expected to be distributed among 6 large units and 60 small units. In total, the proposed project is expected to provide mechanical drying capacity of about 225 tons/hour, modern milling capacity of about 60 tons/hour, bulk storage capacity of about 150,000 tons, warehouse capacity of about 24,000 tons and other required ancillary equipment and facilities. Project capacity is expected to be located mainly in the highly productive paddy growing regions of Central Luzon.
