India's APEDA-promoted agricultural exports rose 8.7% to $26.72 billion in FY23, a record. Rice was the top earner at $11.14 billion, while wheat export volumes fell sharply because of the ongoing export ban.
The data confirms strong Indian rice export flows and the wheat export ban's effect on trade volumes, but it is backward-looking and does not signal a new price driver.
After 442 past trade events, Rough Rice moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (52% higher; middle half -1.8% to +2.3%), and +0.6% over 20.
After 1,079 past trade events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median -0.0% over 5 sessions (49% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.7%), and +0.2% over 20.
