KUALA LUMPUR: Sarawak is set to emerge as Malaysia’s largest rice producer by 2030, potentially overtaking Kedah’s long-held role as the country’s “rice bowl”, says Deputy Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Arthur Joseph Kurup.
He said Sarawak aimed to become a food security hub under its Post-Covid-19 Development Strategy 2030 (PCDS 2030), aligned with the National Food Security Policy Action Plan 2021-2025.
