Export prices for Indian and Thai rice rose slightly this week, supported by stronger domestic currencies, while Vietnamese rice fell on quiet demand. Indian 5% broken parboiled was quoted at $367-370/t and Thai rice at $390-407/t, while Vietnamese 5% broken fell to $340-345/t.
Traders cited seasonal supply tightness in Thailand and abundant Vietnamese summer-autumn harvest supplies.
Weak Asian export demand and ample Vietnamese supply keep rice prices under pressure, while the firmer baht lifted Thai quotes. Rough rice and rice-based feed ingredients are likely to stay soft absent a demand pickup.
