Thailand’s commerce minister said prices for rice, rubber, cassava and feed corn have improved, and the government plans to support rice prices as the main-crop harvest brings more supply to market. She said the government would seek additional export markets, noted cassava production constraints from mosaic disease, and said corn import timing is being managed to balance farmers’ returns with feed manufacturers’ raw-material needs.
Rice price support and new export outlets may absorb harvest supplies and limit seasonal price declines. Restricting corn imports too much could tighten feed supplies and raise feed costs, so import management influences domestic corn availability.
