Ups and downs in the world rice market
Sunday, 2024/07/21 | 09:22:20

IRRI News, Jul 04, 2024

David Dawe and Valerien Pede

 

International rice prices have risen substantially. Over the past year, the main factors driving world market prices have been El Niño and the export restrictions from India, the world’s largest rice exporter. Since January 2024, however, prices have declined as El Niño conditions have ended. Fertilizer prices have declined substantially from their peaks in mid-2022 and have stabilized over the past year. These factors give grounds for optimism that international rice prices will stabilize or decline further in the near future.

 

The world rice market has seen ups and downs during the first few years of this decade. While world wheat and maize prices were on the upswing, more than doubling from August 2020 to May 2022 in the wake of the war in Ukraine, world rice prices were more stable. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) indica rice price index in August 2022 was only 4% above its level in January 2020, the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

However, international rice prices have risen substantially since August 2022, with the FAO indica rice price index increasing by 45% between that time and its peak in January 2024.

 

Over the past year, the main factors driving indica prices higher on the world market have been weather concerns, particularly El Niño, and export restrictions from India, the world’s largest rice exporter.
