s<strong>et</strong>back ( r = 0.92**, n = 12) and consistency ( r = 0.91**) and cooked rice<br />

hardness ( r = 0.63**, n = 25). Cooked rice hardness further correlated<br />

with Amylograph s<strong>et</strong>back ( r = 0.83**, n = 9), consistency ( r = 0.88**), and<br />

peak viscosity ( r = 0.69*), grain width ( r = –0.55**, n = 21), and protein<br />

content ( r = 0.51**, n = 25). Amylograph peak viscosity correlated with<br />

grain width ( r = –0.81**, n = 9) and grain length ( r = 0.84**). Protein<br />

content <strong>al</strong>so correlated negatively with grain width ( r = –0.58**, n = 22).<br />

Ghana<br />

G<br />

hana produced 74,000 t <strong>of</strong> rough rice in 1989 (FAO 1990b).<br />

Annu<strong>al</strong> per capita supply <strong>of</strong> milled rice was 8 kg in 1979-<br />

81 (FAO 1984) and 8 kg in 1986-88 (FAO 19904. Of the nine<br />

popular and farmers' field samples, eight had intermediate AC and<br />

one had high AC; <strong>al</strong>l had low-intermediate GT; and seven had hard GC<br />

(IITA 1985).<br />

<strong>Rices</strong> from Ghana had high-intermediate AC, intermediate GT,<br />

and variable GC (Table 8). Ghanaian rices obtained from and an<strong>al</strong>yzed<br />

at IITA, including TOS 7460-7474, had either high or intermediate AC,<br />

intermediate-low GT, and medium-s<strong>of</strong>t GC (Appendix, Table 8). TOS<br />

7460-7474 mostly had intermediate AC, but TOS 10601-10640 mainly<br />

had high AC. GR19 <strong>al</strong>so had high AC and low GT. Only Nickerie had<br />

intermediate AC among the 1965 samples. Five mark<strong>et</strong> samples <strong>of</strong> raw<br />

rice, obtained through West Africa Rice Development Association<br />

(WARDA), in Accra and Ashiama had 24-28% AC, low GT, and<br />

medium-hard GC (IRRI 1990, unpubl. data). It included Ghanaian<br />

vari<strong>et</strong>y DS3. Loc<strong>al</strong> rices had protein contents <strong>of</strong> 6.1 and 8.4%. Four<br />

imported rices were raw, but three <strong>of</strong> four loc<strong>al</strong> samples were parboiled.<br />

<strong>Grain</strong> length was mainly medium or short, but medium shape<br />

predominated over bold.<br />

<strong>Grain</strong> length and width were significantly correlated ( r = –0.74**,<br />

n = 15). Alk<strong>al</strong>i spreading v<strong>al</strong>ue correlated significantly with Amylograph<br />

s<strong>et</strong>back ( r = 0.94**, n = 7) and consistency ( r = 0.96**). <strong>Grain</strong> width<br />

<strong>al</strong>so correlated with GC ( r = 0.58*, n = 15).<br />

Ivory Coast<br />

I<br />

vory<br />

Coast’s rough rice production was 650,000 t in 1989 (FAO<br />

1990b). Annu<strong>al</strong> per capita consumption <strong>of</strong> milled rice was 59 kg in<br />

1979-81 (FAO 1984), 64 kg in 1987 (RCMD 1989), and 58 kg in 1986-<br />
