Lotus Rice and SRP: Building a Sustainable Future For Rice
In a world where sustainability is no longer a choice but a necessity, the future of rice – a staple food for more than half of humanity- depends on how we grow it. Lotus Rice is proud to announce its membership in the Sustainable Rice Platform (SRP), a global alliance dedicated to transforming rice production into a driver of environmental protection, farmer empowerment, and food security.
What is SRP and Why Does it Matter
The Sustainable Rice Platform (SRP) is a multi-stakeholder alliance initiated by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). It brings together producers, exporters, researchers, and NGOs to set global standards and best practices for sustainable rice cultivation.
SRP’s mission is simple yet powerful: to reduce the environmental footprint of rice production, improve farmer livelihoods, and ensure food security for future generations.
The Impact of SRP – From Fields to the Planet
SRP is more than a certification – it’s a movement for change. By following SRP standards, rice producers adopt practices that:
- Protect the environment: reduce water usage by up to 25% and greenhouse gas emissions by 40%, while preserving biodiversity and soil health.
- Empowering farmers: Improve yields and income, provide training on sustainable methods, and strengthen market access.
- Ensure food security: Create resilient farming systems capable of adapting to climate change and global food challenges.
Through SRP, rice becomes not just a food product, but a tool to achieve climate goals and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Lotus Rice – Proud to Join the SRP Journey
For Lotus Rice, sustainability has always been more than a trend- it’s our responsibility. As one of Vietnam’s leading rice exporters, joining SRP reflects our deep commitment to responsible sourcing, environmental stewardship, and community well-being.
By integrating SRP practice into our supply chain – from seed selection and field management to milling and export – we ensure that every grain of rice we deliver is cultivated with care for people and the planet.
Our Commitment – Empowering Farmers and Protecting The Earth
At Lotus Rice, sustainability starts with the people closest to the land: our farmers. Through SRP, we work hand-in-hand with farming communities across the Mekong Delta, providing technical support, training, and incentives to adopt eco-friendly practices.
Our commitment extends beyond the farm. With modern facilities certified by BRCGS, HACCP, and ISO 22000, we maintain full quality control and traceability – ensuring that SRP-certified rice meets the highest global standards.
A Grain of Hope For A Better Tomorrow
Lotus Rice believes that “a bowl of rice today can change the world tomorrow”. Through our SRP membership, we are turning this belief into reality- one harvest, one partnership, one grain at a time.
Partnership with Lotus Rice to bring certified sustainable SRP rice to your market. Together, let’s shape a responsible food future- from the heart of Mekong to tables worldwide. Contact us to start your partnership.
