PETALING JAYA: The authorities in the country’s two largest rice-planting regions are expecting a better harvest this year compared to last year when extreme weather destroyed over 17,600ha of the crop.
Muda Agricultural Development Authority (Mada) and Kemubu Agricultural Development Authority (Kada), which are responsible for the Kedah-Perlis and Kelantan rice bowls respectively, say they have put in place several measures to increase yields, repair damaged farms and reduce the impact of floods and droughts.
