Thailand’s government spokesman cited year-over-year increases in October 2026 farm prices: cassava rose 80.75%, raw rubber 53.79%, paddy rice about 40%, animal-feed corn 6%, and palm fruit 10.32%. He said household economic conditions should be assessed by weighing both income and expenses, and pointed to measures including lower electricity costs.
Higher corn prices can raise feed costs for Thai livestock buyers, while the rice and palm price changes reflect broader agricultural market conditions. The article reports prices rather than explaining what caused them, so it offers limited evidence about their likely persistence.
