    In the Philippines, rice is a crucial part of both the economy and culture. The country is the 8th-largest rice producer globally, contributing about 2.8% of the world's rice production. Due to unpredictable weather, the Philippine Rice Research Institute promotes drought-tolerant rice varieties and technologies to enhance production. Rice is not only a staple food but also holds cultural significance, being served at every meal and featured in various traditional dishes. Popular rice varieties include NSIC Rc 216, Rc 160, and Rc 300, which are preferred by Filipino farmers. Additionally, the Philippines is expected to import around 2.9 million metric tons of rice in 2022, reflecting the balance between local production and consumption needs.
