Siam Commercial Bank's EIC says a drought that started early in Thailand's 2019-2020 dry season has damaged 1.62 million rai of farmland, 89% of it rice. Reservoirs are below the five-year average, and the Meteorological Department warns the drought could last until June.
Off-season rice, sugar cane and cassava are seen as most at risk.
Lower off-season rice, cane and cassava output tightens Asian feed and industrial raw material supplies, supporting prices for rice and cassava-linked feed inputs.
