Malaysia has a long tradition as a leader in tropical plantation technology. Agriculture is still the backbone of The term agricultural biotechnology encompasses a variety of technologies used in food and agriculture, for a range the Malaysian economy, the nation has moved from traditional agriculture toward a modern outlook of the of different purposes such as the genetic improvement of plant varieties and animal; genetic characterization and sector. Agricultural biotechnology answers the drive to ensure ample food supply and a sustainable production conservation of genetic resources; plant or animal disease diagnosis; vaccine development; and improvement of of food for Malaysia. feeds (FAO,2009a). Some of these technologies may be applied to all the food and agricultural sectors, such as the use of molecular markers or genetic modification, while others are more sector-specific, such as tissue culture Having done various crop science and plant technology studies and implementation for palm oil and rubber (in transgenic crops and forest trees), embryo transfer (livestock) or sex-reversal (fish). based industries, the nation is heading towards a more diversified outlook on other natural resources and products it has potential to offer. Industries targeted for improvement under the policy include palm oil, rice, cocoa, lumber As we face global population growth, increased competition for land and water resources from industrial and and forest species, fruits, flowers, ornamentals, vegetables, spices and other minor crops and plants. urban growth, climate change, and the need to protect the environment, solutions are needed to increase agricultural productivity to combat hunger and poverty. Agricultural biotechnology offers an important tool, Historically agricultural biotechnology development in Malaysia can be traced back to it’s preparation of a which along with traditional breeding, new technologies, and improved resource management can enhance national biotechnology program. The goals were defined in terms of improving the nation’s food security and crop, livestock, and aquaculture productivity. This increases agricultural production in an environmentally commercialization for economic growth, as well as raising its competitive position in the global agricultural sustainable way by reducing excess pesticide and fertilizer use that are threats to biodiversity and health, developing markets with quality products. new crop varieties that are resistant to plant diseases and pests and climate changes, and enabling better livestock disease diagnosis and the development of more effective livestock vaccines among others.1 (Source: USAID) The government planned to achieve its agricultural biotechnology goals through several key measures. These included a public financed research system, investment to enhance the innovative capacity (both human and Malaysia has a strong foundation for agricultural biotechnology, with it being the third engine of growth for physical capacity) of the national biotechnology research program, and creation of institutions and regulations. Malaysia after the manufacturing and services sectors. Being the world leader in the production of several industrial crops, like oil palm, rubber, cocoa, pepper and tropical timber, Malaysia has a strong agriculture base. This coupled with her rich biodiversity and strong Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure, puts Malaysia in an advantageous position to drive forward in its goal of biotechnology as the The Malaysian Biotechnology Policy next platform for economic growth for the country.

Here an analysis of impacts on climate change and vulnerabilities is performed, based on observational records of inter-annual variability in precipitation and worming climatic factors. The assessment involved Global Circulation Models (GCMs) together with Crop Modeling such as DSSAT to represent a range of plausible climate scenarios. The approach used follows a bottom-up strategy, focusing on the vulnerability of Malaysian rice agriculture under economic conditions and given a wide range of potential climate outcomes. The study investigates the Malaysian rice agriculture sector under a climate and economic perspective, quantifying the merits of the projected simulation and presents an insight into the nature of tradeoff between climate variability and the likelihood of a decline of earnings for rice cultivation over the next 40 years from 2020 to 2060. The projections signify to the likely future changes and uncertainties on rice production; potential path for planning strategies for investment decision to reduce vulnerabilities and to unearth prioritizing requirements for Malaysian future agriculture.

  • Risk Profiling in Agriculture in Malaysia
    Kajian Malaysia, Vol. 30, No.1, 2012, 21–50 RISK IN MALAYSIAN AGRICULTURE: THE NEED FOR A STRATEGIC APPROACH AND A POLICY REFOCUS Okezie Chukwukere Austin1,2* and Amir Hussin Baharuddin2 1Department of Agricultural Economics, Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike Nigeria 2School of Social Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang *Corresponding author: [email protected] The agricultural sector is exposed to a variety of risks that occur with high frequency. These risks include climate and weather, natural catastrophes, pests and diseases, which combine to cause highly variable production outcomes. The broad objective of this study is to examine these agricultural risk factors and the policies in place for countering them. The approach adopted here includes an in- depth review of literature, government policy documents and Emergency Disasters Databases (EM-DAT) data on disaster occurrences. Inferential statistics were employed in data analysis. Risk management in agriculture ranges from informal practices such as the avoidance of highly risky crops and crop and income-source diversification to formal measures such as crop insurance, a minimum-support price system and a futures market. Statistics show the prevalence of weather-related hazards of cyclone, floods, landslides, earthquake and tsunami. As to the impact of such hazards on human health, statistics for 1980–2010 show that deaths caused by epidemics amounted to 43.4% of all deaths arising from natural disasters. Epidemics accounted for the highest number of deaths against 5.8% the lowest arising from mass movement (dry). Government policy documents show that efforts have been made to manage hazards, such as the construction of the Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel (SMART), the tsunami-recovery plan and the December 2006 flood- recovery plan, among others.

  • “We Just Write What We Think Is Newsy”: an Analysis on Newsworthiness Constructions in Malaysian Newspapers
    “We just write what we think is newsy”: An Analysis on Newsworthiness Constructions in Malaysian Newspapers SITI SURIANI OTHMAN A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Nottingham Trent University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. September 2012 i This work is the intellectual property of the author (Note: if there are other owners of the IP, as a consequence of any statement issued under paragraph 12 of Section 14A, they must also be named here).

Queries or requests for any other use, or if a more substantial copy is required, should be directed in the owner(s) of the Intellectual Property Rights.” ii Abstract Studies on newsworthiness have developed mainly into two ways of explaining how events become news. These approaches, which have been called object-driven and subject- driven news values, have contributed a lot in the quest for understanding news. Previous empirical studies on news have demonstrated that concepts used as abstractions of social practices, such as newsworthiness construction, suffer either from object-driven news values explanation about newsworthiness that seeks to locate news value in the news events themselves, or from subject-driven news values which see news making as being exclusively concerned with hidden motives that are often unbeknown even to the practitioners themselves. The practitioners are, therefore, forced to explain newsworthiness by invoking contexts that are already known; for example, in terms of editorial decisions based on political, cultural and/or organisational identities which are ‘external’ to immediate empirical encounters, because such identities are compositions of a range of contextual factors.

  • Profitability and Competitiveness of Rice Farming in Malaysia: a Policy Analysis Matrix
    Profitability and Competitiveness of Rice Farming in Malaysia: A Policy Analysis Matrix Fazleen Abdul Fatah Universiti Teknologi MARA Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia [email protected] Stephan Von Cramon-Taubadel Georg-August-University of Goettingen Göttingen, Germany [email protected] ABSTRACT In recent years, the Malaysian rice sector has experienced structural changes to improve its competitiveness within a dynamic environment that is influenced by political, technical, economic, and international trade challenges. Using a policy analysis matrix and a rich dataset on rice producing households in four of Malaysia’s granary areas, the competitiveness of rice production in Malaysia is analyzed. The empirical results show that rice production is competitive in three of the four granary areas, the exception being Ketara granary area. To fully understand the importance of the competitive farms, they must be identified and studied by further research using disaggregated data. The finding suggests that government policy should focus on encouraging structural changes capable of enabling the local farms to grow enough to earn sufficient income, generate social profits, and thus improve the sector's competitiveness. Keywords: Policy Analysis Matrix, competitiveness, self-sufficiency, rice production, Malaysia JEL Classification: D2, Q18 32 Fazleen Abdul Fatah and Stephan Von Cramon-Taubadel INTRODUCTION it exceeded the long-term trend in recent years from 2006 to 2013 (Figure 1). Between 2005 Overview of the Rice Sector and 2013, the harvested area increased from 660,000 hectares (ha.) to 690,000 ha. Overall Rice plays an essential role in Malaysian paddy yield in Malaysia has increased from society as it fosters agricultural activity and 3.36 metric tons per hectare (MT/ha) in 2005 to contributes to the nourishment of a rising 3.91 MT/ha in 2013.
