India's National Statistical Office published report 587, a situation assessment survey of agricultural households using 2018-19 data. The article uses the survey to examine how paddy farmers sell their rice, finding that most sell in local markets while about 16% sell to APMC mandis, cooperatives or government agencies.
The findings describe how Indian rice reaches the market and bear on the procurement system that influences domestic rice supply and minimum support price policy. The article offers no immediate price catalyst.
After 50 past neutral report events, Rough Rice moved a median -0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.9% to +1.5%), and -1.2% over 20.
