Rice prices in India have risen as traders anticipate lower 2026–27 paddy yields due to inadequate rainfall and reduced fertilizer application. In Kota, paddy prices reached ₹4,500–4,700 per quintal, with depleted carryover stocks and higher input costs also cited; the scale of any production loss remains uncertain.
Reduced rainfall and fertilizer use could lower Indian rice output, tightening domestic availability and supporting prices. Higher local prices may also affect export competitiveness if the tighter supply persists.
