India's cereal exports rose sharply in April-December 2020, reaching Rs 49,832 crore from Rs 32,591 crore a year earlier, a 52.9% rise in rupee terms. Non-basmati rice exports nearly doubled in value to Rs 22,856 crore, while basmati exports were roughly flat in dollar terms.
Strong Indian rice export flows add supply to a market already tightened by production shortfalls in Thailand and Vietnam, which is supportive for rice prices and competing feed grain demand.
