Bloomberg reports that a global rice benchmark has fallen to a 10-year low after the Philippines, a major importer, halted rice imports. The move reflects weak demand from the country's large buyer base and ample Asian supply.
With the Philippines absent from buying, export demand for Asian rice weakens and pressure on benchmark prices persists. Buyers can expect continued soft rice prices while import curbs remain in place.
