Paddy prices in Sherpur, Bogura, rose by Tk 150–200 per maund in a month, while rice prices increased by Tk 4–8 per kilogram from mill gate to retail. Traders and millers cited higher electricity, wage, fuel and transport costs, while prices varied by rice type and location.
Higher processing and transport costs are lifting local rice prices, while rising paddy prices add to millers’ input costs. The reported increases are localized and do not establish a broader export-supply shock.
