India's Agriculture Ministry projected 2023-24 kharif rice output at 106.3 million tonnes, 3.7% below last year, after India banned non-basmati white rice exports in July. Global rice quotes jumped after the ban and remain above pre-ban levels.
A lower Indian rice crop combined with the export ban tightens world supply, keeping global rice prices firm.
