This study was conducted in Shwebo Township which is one of the most rice growing areas in Sagaing Region and export rice mostly to China. Shwebo Pawsan, quality rice variety which was introduced in 2007 and Ayeyarmin, high yielding variety were exported rice varieties. The objectives of the study were to study the effects of government intervention policies on the private and social profitability of selected rice productions (Shwebo Pawsan and Ayeyarmin), to compare the comparative advantage of selected rice production and export marketing activities by using Domestic Resource Cost (DRC) analysis and to point out the effects of changes in the key variable factors such as different yield levels, world prices and exchange rates of selected rice varieties on DRC ratio. The survey was carried out during September 2012. The primary data were not only collected from 120 farmers in 3villages but also from 8 wholesalers, 5 millers, 5 retailers and 3 exporters interviewed in Shwebo Township. Analysis of DRC was used to catch up the objectives of the study. Private Benefit- Cost ratio of Shwebo Pawsan was 1.18 and Social Benefit- Cost ratio was 1.83. For Ayeyarmin, Private Benefit- Cost ratio of was 1.35 and Social Benefit-Cost ratio was 0.99. DRC in Shwebo Pawsan was 0.39 and Ayeyarmin was 0.80. The value of Nominal Protection Coefficient (NPC) for Revenue of Shwebo Pawsan was 0.70 and Ayeyarmin was 1.52. The value of Nominal Protection Coefficient (NPCI) for tradable in Shwebo Pawsan and Ayeyarmin were greater than 1. The value of Effective Protection Coefficient (EPC) in Shwebo Pawsan was 0.62 and Ayeyarmin was 1.55. From the results of sensitivity analysis, higher comparative advantage was found at the high world price, high yield level, and high exchange rate for both rice productions. Based on the research findings, Shwebo Pawsan should be enhanced to exploit the international market by reducing implicit tax because of its low DRC ratio and lowNPC. Although DRC ratio of Ayeyarmin was less than 1, its NPC value (>1) indicated the less potential of exportable crop at the current market price. In order to increase the economic efficiency of rice production, government should reduce the explicit and implicit tax or the market failure on tradable inputs. The concept of comparative advantage should be introduced in decision making process of crop cultivation. |
