Ecuador has finalized market access for US rough rice imports, with interim phytosanitary requirements approved. Ecuador's rice crop is expected to be about 200,000 tons short due to El Niño-related planting losses and empty strategic reserves.
New access to a short-supplied market adds a potential export outlet for US rough rice, modestly supporting US rice demand.
