Yth Pak Aris Purwanto,
 
Salut atas concern-nya. Kasus Monsanto dengan benih hybrida dan transgenic nya memang menjadi pelajaran sangat berarti. Oleh karena itulah perlunya transparasi teknologi dan pentingnya seminar seperti ini sebisanya kita ikuti dan kritisi. Anyway bila bagus, transfer teknologi benih padi hybrida-nya yang kita ambil supaya kita tidak hanya menjadi sasaran pasar terus. Saya kira banyak Sensei Jepang dan teman disini yang penelitiannya berkaitan.
 
Salam,

Membaca tema seminar "Commercializing Hybrid Rice Technology: an option for Indonesia" saya jadi teringat kasus Monsanto yang gencar memperkenalkan benih jagung, kapas ke Indonesia dulu sampai muncul kasus suap. Saya sempat mengunjungi kebun percobaan tanaman jagungnya di Kutai timur yang merupakan project CDM nya perush batubara di Kutai Timur.
 
Apa benar sih teknologi hybrid rice tersebut mampu mendongkrak produksi padi terutama di negara kita? apakah itu bukan strategi promosi dari penjual benih?

Saya sempat searching ketemu "Asian Farmers Continue Rejecting Hybrid Rice" silahkan di lihat di http://www.organicconsumers.org/Politics/hybridrice030905.cfm

Salam

Aris

Seminar: Commercializing Hybrid Rice Technology: an option for Indonesia.

Hybrid rice may be an option for Indonesia to improve its rice production systems. The topic will be discussed by Dr. Ed Redo�a, drawn from the Philippine's experience where hybrid rice is getting more and more popular among farmers and a chunk of agricultural budget goes to hybrid rice program.

Dr. Redo�a, Deputy Executive Director of PhilRice (Philippine Rice Research Institute), is visiting this country to help drafting a new hybrid rice program of Indonesia.
