China’s rice market continued to show firmer paddy and weaker milled-rice prices, with new-crop supply pressuring ordinary japonica varieties while higher-quality rice retained support. Minimum-purchase-price programs in six provinces helped stabilize indica paddy after prices fell below the support level, while mills curbed output and worked down stocks amid new-crop and imported supply; India also increased public rice sales.
Government purchasing provides a floor for some Chinese indica paddy prices, but ample new-crop and imported supply and weak mill demand continue to weigh on the broader rice market. The near-term effect is mixed, with support for paddy but pressure on milled rice.
