Vietnam's 5% broken rice prices rose to $550-575 per tonne in the week to July 27, the highest since 2011, after India's export ban. Thai 5% broken rose to $605-610, a 11-year high, and domestic Vietnamese retail rice prices also climbed sharply.
The report confirms that India's ban is driving Southeast Asian rice prices higher, tightening export supply for importers. Higher rice prices may also push feed-grain demand.
