Myanmar B1, B2 broken rice prices hit 5.5-year low amid sluggish demand

Myanmar B1 and B2 broken rice prices fell to $264/mt FOB on July 25, a 5.5-year low, as demand weakened from China, the EU, Indonesia and the Philippines. Chinese buyers have shifted toward A1 and A2 varieties.

WHY IT MATTERS

Weak demand from major importers and a price discount to other Asian origins point to continued downward pressure on lower-grade broken rice values.
