IREF, the Indian rice exporters' body, warned on November 3 that India may restrict exports of 100% broken rice after international prices passed $360 a tonne. No restriction is in force yet.
Domestic broken rice prices rose 5.3% in three weeks as ethanol, poultry feed and exporters compete for the grain.
A renewed Indian broken rice export curb would remove a major low-cost feed and food input from world markets and push prices higher. Feed buyers should expect firmer broken rice and rice-based feed costs while the risk remains open.
