1 Report of the Media Briefing Workshops Addressing Barriers to Rice Seeds Trade between India and Bangladesh (RISTE Project) 1. Background 1.1 CUTS International has implemented the RISTE project, since January 2013 in collaboration with four partners in India and one in Bangladesh with the support from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The project is being implemented in four eastern states of India namely; Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha and West Bengal and in Bangladesh with the objective to develop an enabling environment to promote seeds trade and knowledgesharing on High Yielding Variety (HYV) rice seeds between India and Bangladesh. 1.2 The project seeks to facilitate understanding of two interrelated issues: firstly, major factors that hinder formal trade and knowledge sharing between Bangladesh and India in rice seeds, particularly in HYV rice seeds; and secondly why is there lack of consensus among the relevant stakeholders with regard to potential benefits and constraints relating to HYV rice seeds trade and knowledge-sharing between the two countries. 1.3 The project, since its inception, has achieved several milestones. These include identifying disabling factors that hinder trade and cooperation in rice seeds between India and Bangladesh. Several enabling factors, which could lead to improvement in rice seeds availability and accessibility in the two countries, have also been identified. These findings are duly reflected in the reports and other research papers produced under the project. Major findings and recommendations are summarised in the form of Joint Communique and Recommendatory Paper. These could be accessed at 2. Media Briefing Workshops 2.1 For dissemination of major findings and outreach among the relevant policy makers, research institutions, seed producers and traders and the end users i.e. the farmers, altogether five media briefing workshops were organised four in India (Aurangabad in Bihar, Kendrapada in Odisha, Kolkata in West Bengal, and Ranchi in Jharkhand) and one in Bangladesh (Dhaka).

2 2.2 The approach towards the organisation of media briefing workshops is premised on the understanding that media can potentially play an instrumental role in raising policy debate and awareness on public policy issues, and can bring policy changes on issues, such as formalisation of trade in rice seeds, particularly HYV. Media could also play a significant role in ushering in a regime of cooperation and knowledge sharing between Bangladesh and India on larger issues of agriculture development. Further, a strong association with print and electronic media is expected to lead to an effective dissemination of the research findings, stimulate policy debate, promote endorsement of research findings and create conducive environment for the necessary policy and practice changes in enhancing rice seeds trade and knowledge sharing between Bangladesh and India on larger issues of agriculture development. 3. Objectives of Media Briefing Workshops a. Generate awareness among local and national level media on the issue of informal rice seeds trade between India and Bangladesh b. Enable interaction between and among the local and national media on project findings and its importance for Bangladesh and India and c. Sensitise the local and national media on scope and potential of formalisation of trade in rice seeds and knowledge sharing between Bangladesh and India. 4. Media Outreach and Participation 4.1 Five media briefing workshops at five locations drew the participation of more than 80 media persons from electronic and print media and both of regional and national languages including English. Out of these, about 40 media channels prominently covered the event. Media coverage can be assessed at the online RISTE webpage: Table 2: Some Selected Media Channels that Covered the Workshops in India and Bangladesh States/Country Bihar Jharkhand Odisha 2 P a g e Name of Newspaper and TV Channel Dainik Jagran, Hindustan, Rashtriya Sahara and ETV (Bihar) Dainik Jagran, Hindustan, Sanmarg, Dainik Bhaskar and AAJ Suryapravah, Dharitri, Sambada, The Samaj, Samay, ETV (Odia) and Doordarshan (Odia) West Bengal Financial Express, Sambad Pravah, The Statesman, Hindustan Times, Dainik Jagran, Salaam Dunia, Prabhat Khabar, Press Trust of India and The Economic Times, Business Standard Bangladesh 5.
