THE Myanmar Rice Federation (MRF) and 17 solar companies signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to utilize solar-powered energy in rice mills designated for exports.
A preliminary assessment on the
installation of 41.5-megawatt solar power projects at 28 rice mills by 11 solar
companies began in March 2025, and installation is being undertaken.
Furthermore, MRF has been planning a
project for the paddy farmers to get access to solar-powered irrigation systems
with an investment from private solar companies.
MRF has been endeavouring to export
three million tonnes of rice in the current financial year 2025-2026, beginning
1 April, through the collaboration of private companies as per the national
export strategy for export-led growth.
MRF Export Exchange is slated to take
place monthly to share market insights, sustainability drive, best practices
and global trends.
