Why Rice Markets Are In Crisis Mode
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 май 2024
- Global supplies of rice are facing its most significant shortage in two decades, exacerbating food insecurity fears. Rice is a staple food for over half the world’s population. India’s export bans sent shockwaves through markets as some argue the country is using food as a political pawn. America’s $34 billion rice industry must compete against the same market uncertainty while managing droughts, floods and changing temperatures. Watch this video to learn more about how global rice markets influence food security, geopolitics and the livelihoods of millions of farmers.

Why Rice Markets Are In Crisis Mode
India gives subsidies to Rice farmers = bad
USA gives subsidies to Rice farmers = very good and a safety net for farmers.
The nutshell of the entire report. WOW
I don't see americans struggling. Indias subsidies are corrupt and inefficent.
Yeah dude westerners have the mindset of "only we are allowed to" i met some in real life, it was very unpleasant
@420glazeit3 Honestly it's nearly every nation across the globe that does this though.
@@420glazeit3You probably were unpleasant. Get of our western sites then if you dislike us so much.
That's not what they said at all.
I love that when India subsidized their rice farmers it's inefficient subsidies because of electoral motives, but then when the US does the same it's "supplemental income and safety nets". And it's good because farmers are good for food security and the local economy
Thank you.
That's what bugged me the second they mentioned these two statements.
Also same applies to crop insurance and similar government schemes provided by govt of India, they are among the best in the world but considering India has been Agricultural heavy economy, in today's capitalism economy, supporting marginal and smaller farmers is getting very very hard
These guys while reporting dont even understand the hypocrisy they spew.
@@SiddharthaMoravekar It isn't their fault the data shows what it shows. They simply have no obligation to be as nationalistic as you all have been increasingly pushed to be by Modi. I've seen the "India is the best!" bot comments, it isn't that they're being hypocritical it's that you're being biased.
#1 comment right here.
@@Vaeldarg first of all the videos is titled "why the world is running out of rice" it's kinda clickbait. It just shows their alliance towards generating clicks... For money.. or something like that. so yes if you think we have nationalist views and our assesment might be biased, the same applies to CNBC or the person behind this video.
Statistics and data can be presented in many ways to present different viewpoints , and on top of that , the videos sets a narration. So yes this is not just a data but a narrated video.
It's a big news channel media afterall and monetary/political influence are always into play.
There was almost no rain in most parts of India in August, a core monsoon month. That's why rice export was banned; not due to elections. Food security is at the core of the export ban; not some elections.
i heard india surpass china in population already. of course gov wanted to take care of their people
Then why no ban for basmathi and Gujarati rice. All the states which are not ruled by bjp are affected by this ban. Can u agree that.
@@Thamizh23😂😂😂What did you even achieved with this comment? Just pouring your frustration?
@@Thamizh23india banned that rice which is generally used by masses and poor people in India. So that govt. ensure that poor doesn’t suffer from scarcity. Basmati and Gujrati rice are costlier rice and mostly used by rich people so even if the price increase they can afford that and indirectly most of the rich Arabian countries also purchased only basmati rice so no loss to Indian economy. A very smart decision by government if you want to understand.
@@user-vo9nr3mh2v I expected this answer to support the cunning brahmin idea foolish govt. But why the south states that too TN, Kerala etc. which are not bjp in power only always affected due to this kind of ban. After ban what did ur govt did for the poor to get uplifted. There is no drought and no problem in the market. This happened to benefit only adani and ambani only not the south states farmers or state govts.
It’s not due to elections that Indian government has banned rice export but it’s due to el-nino effect. This year India received 40% less rainfall and next year it’s predicted that India will receive up to 70 % less rainfall. Food security is what government is looking into. If we keep exporting like nothing will happen who’s gonna meet the common man’s requirement of food when there is a crisis ??, these so called experts did not make this point at all.. such a shame!!!
El nino?
@@philipp3001ya elnino, a strange climate conditions, due to this unpredictable weather conditions are happening in my state we had now 59% rain deficit😢
International meteorology have adopted "El nino" spanish words for boy child. Originall discovery was where Pacific Ocean surface temperature west of Chile is associated with less rainfall and even severe drought. "La nina" , girl child, is associated with more rain and floods.
@@kevinkelly7078 Yes, the impact of this is worldwide, from Australia across Indian Ocean reaching Bangladesh, Myanmar, Indonesia and of course India.
Dont spread false science. The rainfall on a particular area NEVER decrease. It change in frequency of quantity and the number of days it rains, but the amount of water stays constant. The condensed water vapor has to fall back on earth to go back into the sea or in the water bodies.
Already rice is sold at 30-50% higher than last year in Local Indian markets.
If there was no export ban the price would have doubled.
Thank you for kindly explaining a part of your country's point of view, sir.
food in general went up in price for the same amount...30%- 50%.
So whats your point?
Yeah, rice is a food too duhhhhh.
@@Gizziiusa thats not how it works, bruhh
@@Gizziiusa in India Rice and wheat prices are stable it may rice by 3-5 % which goes unnoticed
This is the first time in many decades it increased by 30-50% .
Tomatoes and Onion prices increases are seasonal one-time it goes to ₹100-₹150 but later comes back to ₹10 .
@@brycemedvin8765 This video failed to explain how govt of India buys rice directly from farmers to feed 800 million people domestically free of cost through public distribution system every month.
If prices are increased govt should also spend more money to buy
What I got from this video is that "a small investment from US Congress" can help subsidize Chipotle and Anheiser-Busch's ingredients, since almost all of US rice stays domestic, and they're the biggest purchasers named in this video.
God forbid we ask those companies to just pay market rate for their ingredients
Riviana Foods owns most of the rice farms in the US and they are the ones lobbying congress for corporate welfare. $334 million dollars revenue last year. If they don't get a $250 million subsidy they will not be able to pay Ebro Foods enough profits to afford new Jets for all the Board members. Ebro Foods made a profit of $651 million last year. These are not mom and pop farms. They are big business.
The US agriculture industry is already heavily subsidized. That is why many countries can't compete with US farmers in certain crops, for example corn. The reason is because food is considered by American policymakers as national security, it makes the US less vulnerable to food shocks in the event of a war or geopolitical rivalry.
I like it when India does the same thing its 'electoral motivated' while when the US does the same its 'Systematic Public Subsidy'. I can't, with the Hippocracy .🤓
@@Tonad_Drump if you actually talk to most people though we’re not mad at India doing it though. Like if things are tough they gotta feed their people first.
However, people are also focused on it because of the fact that there are millions that were relying on India for rice. Which as touched on is a staple food source.
Rice is to Asia what the potato is to the west and specifically corn is to America.
Which mind you the US exports soooo much food to the world mainly in the form of animal feeds though
How about this: American companies will start paying market rates for their ingredients - and in exchange their corporate tax rates get cut by like 80%?
qft! "I love that when India subsidized their rice farmers it's inefficient subsidies because of electoral motives, but then when the US does the same it's "supplemental income and safety nets". And it's good because farmers are good for food security and the local economy"
love the double standard. when americans look at the world that's what your media and govt tell you about us: india - rice, canada - wheat, uk - fish, australia/can/nz - beef, s africa - citrus, mexico - corn (so you flooded mexico with cheap us corn and killed that sector of their agriculture - where do you think most of these narco types came from? impoverished bankrupt farm families that lost their land!).
america makes sensible policies for everybody, everybody makes policies to hurt americans... that's what this whole video says.
@@Scriptorsilentum they're perenial victims. Kinda explains why so many of them were so keen to vote for a president that also plays the victim card so well, despite overwhelming evidence he's a criminal, not a victim
its the exact same with china and electric cars, the americans pay twice as much subsidies and china even pays tesla which is an american company
This is the exact same way us europeans feel. Airbus is one example there where the americans complain about airbus receiving subsidies while ignoring the amount of subsidies boeing receives. Now they will most likely complain about airbus not being fair because boeing planes does not sell to the same level as airbus even though its boeings fault for not taking their safety standards seriously.
Nobody can become financially successful over night. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part. Fear is a dangerous component, hindering us from taking bold steps we need in other to reach our goals.
India had one of the worst monsoon on record this year as there was almost no rainfall in the month of august which put a lot of pressure on the government to ensure that there are stocks to prevent something hazardous. Also, singapore,phillipines and many other SEA countries have contacted the indian government for exceptions and the Indian government has granted them exceptions and rice will be exported to them. Simply put, India does not want to be a victim of rich western traders sitting in their manhattan offices speculating on indian rice which will put inflationary pressures on india
in punjab the rice yield this year is atleast 30 percent more then last year.
@@greatblu9249 yes but not in Chattisgarh and madhya pradesh. Punjab is heavily subsidised not other states
@@rutdvajrawal7933 but overall production of rice across whole of india will be same this year as last.
what is subsidies given in punjab and haryana. May I know.
MSP. Punjabi farmers corner 70-80% of countries MSP
@@manh9105 I was just curious is msp a subsidy.
thanks.
This episode do not reveal full information. India's rice ban is temporary. It has 3 years of rice stocks in its FCI warehouses. The stock is feed the people if there are two years of consecutive monsoon failures. In addition the farmers are converting rice fields in to more profitable crops such as fish and shrimp farming. India put ban on export of non-Basmathi verities, that are produced in South India such as Sona Masoori, Ponni, BPT etc., that are produced in the deltas of Godavari, Krishna and Kaveri river systems. The reasons to impose ban are compelling as the stocks of these varieties are going down and per capita yield is also going down due to water shortage/crop migration etc. The rice that go to Africa which is unpolished, broken, and subsidized has no ban.
Good comment. Do you live in India?
@@LuKiSCraft No, I do not but I follow news closely.
As a Filipino, I feel envious to the Indians because despite the massive population of India, their govt is verymuch capable of providing enough food for the citizens. The Philippines, despite being considered as an agricultural country, is not capable of producing enough rice and instead imports rice from Thailand and Vietnam. Political leaders have come and gone but because the country’s government is being run like hell, the Filipinos are facing a very dark future…
sometimes they export good stuff to so called "rich" countries and import some crap for domestic use.
What do the Filipino generally eat? What is the staple food? Is rice widely used in Philippines?
it's due to geography
It's not all about politics, it's also the Philippines' geographic location. Thailand and Vietnam don't experience super typhoons, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions every year. Even little Cambodia can export rice since they don't experience extreme natural disasters. Their harvest is almost always guaranteed. Agriculture is always at the mercy of mother nature.
It’s refreshing to see so many people in agreement in the comments with different perspectives of this complicated game - while also having compassion for India’s hellacious weather.
yeh, it is refreshing I agree. Nice change to see people who actually appear educated & aren't just falling for the propaganda spin & hypocritical attitudes towards both countries, as presented in this video. Very unexpected & refreshing indeed!
What's more: the Indian climate was already difficult, but the climate crisis has worsened the challenges there. And while the rest of the world is catching up, the West has caused it.
What I find truly remarkable is that this entire 10 minute video about rice didn't mention China once.
Western msm vendetta against India

Because India is the #1 rice exporter in the world. Compared to India, China export minuscule amount of rice, and thereby no influence on the stability of the worldwide rice market. Naturally in this issue of shortage of rice, China has no role to play and thereby not discussed.
china top1 in production but no.6 exporter bro 😂 china’s rice is mainly for domestic consumption whereas india focuses too much on exporting its own rice 😂
@@hurrikkkanes2533 because india have enough rice to export and yeah we dont eat bat ,dog ,virus😁😁😁
A beer company is the #1 consumer of rice. There is no problem with supply, but how it is consumed
Beer is very important
Literally wasting food to make a toxin lol. Humanity at it's best.
@@Deadassbruhfrfr Beer causes impaired judgement. Bad judgement is bad for society. Therefore beer is bad for society.
Right. So if you are hungry, please drink beer 🍺 instead of eating rice 🍚
I suspect it's low-quality rice since it's used for the mash. Probably not a big impact to the food supply.
Indian Ban on rice exports has nothing to do with politics or elections. The reason is entirely domestic food security. The failure of monsoon rains in 2023 and erratic weather is bringing down rice security stockpiles. Further, already skyrocketing rice prices in India is mainly responsible for the export ban. Concern for people's food safety and not politics is the reason behind rice export ban has to be noted.
I hate the narrative of this video. It feels like they're villainizing india for its export ban. I'm from SEA and feel like it's my own country's responsibility to ensure food security and independence from importation. Also, why are they using American perspectives when they primarily need their rice for their kellogs. It's not even their staple.
The last week I was shopping at this dep. store "More" and was shocked to see the price of "idli rice" gone up from ₹35 to ₹100/kg. Two days ago, it was ₹130/kg. Idli rice is a staple in South India. Rozana Basmati is cheaper at ₹85 a kilo. We are having Basmati Idlis !!! I can afford it but I'm not buying. If I buy it, I'm supporting the supply moghuls who think it is ok to rip off people at Diwali.
I'm in Europe and love short grain rice. I am glad they are trying to take care of their farmers and ensuring a stable food source.
Subsidies reduce food output, as farmers can produce the same but still get paid. It also increases prices as consumers pay at the checkout but also in their taxes.
@@patrickbateman1660 You do not know Indian economics. So mind your own nation.
@@patrickbateman1660- Subsidies are sometimes done to maintain a domestic food industry in the case of war.
@@patrickbateman1660 US has the most subsidised farmers on earth, are you suggesting that reduces their food production?
Meanwhile I'm in Singapore, which imports ~90% of its food (as we don't have much land & find it more profitable to use them for secondary & tertiary industries instead, & anyway even if we grow our own food it'll still be more expensive than neighbouring countries (which are in earlier stages of development)), & food export bans seem to be more frowned upon here, as they seem to be portrayed as a futile attempt to fight against economic principles. When Malaysia banned chicken exports to us (in 2021 I remember) the local press was warning Malaysia that it might permanently lose Singapore as a customer even after lifting its ban, as Singapore by then would've probably already started importing from other countries instead (albeit further away & thus more expensive). Probably because an export ban raises the risk of food shortage & thus food inflation in my country. However if the exporting country is facing a genuine food shortage then I am also thinking what other measures it could take to remedy the situation
Best part is market bro saying rice export ban was "just political" to keep rice prices reasonable in thier country...like that somehow is a bad thing.
Typical Western Media : Stop feeding you people so that when they suffer we could make another critical Documentary and milk viewrship. Just as we did when you booked us for evading Taxes ( BBC Smirks) .
Thereby increasing prices and maybe starving people outside the country. Thereby decreasing the profits that small farmers in India use to survive. Thereby meddling in markets such that unknown unwanted secondary effects will occur. Yeah, bad thing.
@justliberty4072 so you would rather they starve while exporting large amounts of food. The Irish would like to have some words with you about how well that works out.
@@justliberty4072I doubt it has anything to do with us if other people are starving.
India made an excellent decision to make rice more affordable for Indians. Other Asian and African countries might want to consider growing their own amaranth or quinoa for their people since it can replace rice but is more nutrient rich for consumption and is a drought tolerant crop.
India is also the largest producer of millets.
You can grow rice in Africa?
@@motherhoodsbeauty9279 Hello. I am thinking that Asia and Africa can grow quinoa because it is healthier and easier to grow. However, yes some African countries grow rice. Then, western countries send free rice and put rice farmers out of business. It depends on the country because it is very diverse since it's the second largest continent in the world. Some areas are tropical desert, jungle, islands etc which will determine if they can grow rice.
Africa has its own indigenous species of rice different from Asian rice. Europeans found vast fields of various species of rice being grown all over Africa, and took African rice and growers to their colonies in the Americas. A variety of African rice that came to be known as Carolina Gold was the major rice grown in the US until it was replaced by the Asian species of rice.
There are varieties of African rice that are grown on dry lands without paddies, or on hillsides
In south india we are small scale rice growing farmers for generations, until last decade when we we gave up as it was a losing game year after year, now price is slightly higher but still not enough to break even, so our farms are lying empty and we have switched remaining land to grow commercial crops like coffee pepper etc

I like how they say climate change is negatively affecting rice production but that India is harvesting their second largest ever recorded crop. Curious.
What's the point of your comment, that climate change is fake?
According to this channel
Indian subsidy: electoral gains
American subsidy: helps poor farmers.
Americans are the most vicious when it comes to money.
India is the #1 rice exporter, but it has stopped exporting due to fear of climate change and lack of fertilizers. Luckily, Vietnam stepped up, but the amount is barely match that of India.
I am actively in charity. Vietnam stepped in and helped the world but this also increase rice prices within the country. Many citizens in poverty really hurt by price increase. For example poor old citizens (70s, 80s, 90s year old) is making 30,000 VND a day! Rice in Vietnam is 20,000 VND a kg.
i dont know why indian govt did that but as rice producer i sold govt 2000kg rice and have enough rice for 3 years ,may the stop because of there freebees to 800ml and even they dont require it because more than 80% of producers ,its all about vote bank politics.
I don't know why you can't understand such a simple thing, due to inflation, war and lack of proper monsoon timings our rice production has decreased and if we continue to export without considering domestic demand it'll lead to a massive crisis. Stop blaming the government and try to understand economics. People are already suffering a bit due to the rise in vegetable prices. We don't need to hurt ourselves to benefit the world when people are not kind enough to recognise the reality.
Rice and Ice
@@AbhishekSingh-zv2tn No you BJP idiot. That's because rice production *has* declined this year due to insufficient monsoon rains. Google "rice production lack of rains India" and read up. Southern states have seen paddy output drop. And south India consumes more rice than the north. It's still a significant chunk of India's population and if they allowed exporting more non-basmati varieties, then than would result in higher prices for Indians back home. Basmati rice isn't what most Indians consume on a daily basis.

When Lake Mead was falling, people were talking about how to reduce water usage. Those decorative fountains and swimming pools use only a small percentage of the water but farms use over 40%. But you die without food and can live without fountains and swimming pools.
It still amazes me that we, all nations and people, keep trying to tackle so many of these issues on our own. India especially has so many issues that really requires a massive collaboration and investment which would benefit everyone. But that isn't profitable so *shrug*.
India is doing what's best for India. I can't blame them one bit.
ok indian
Lol. You didn't watch the video did you champ?
Just watched the video. What are people complaining about. Why shouldn't Indian government priorities the needs of the Indian populace. For the uninformed, there were some major floods accompanied by droughts that severely affected the rice output in 2022. Coupled with the increase in wheat prices and the increase in Oil prices during the Russia - Ukraine war. India foresaw a drastic increase in demand for rice for it's export but at the same time had to factor in the fact that Indians would themselves not be able to afford the increased prices. Additionally, a lot of Indian rice is imported my rich countries who have connections with a lot a powerful middlemem. Thus, India put a temporary ban to better manage and streamline any and all exports on rice. Don't worry about the farmers, they were still getting paid less before all this as well. There is a good chance that the farmers are making more now that the govt stepped in.

the utter stupidity of saying "we can stand up against any farmers, but not against foreign governments" is breathtaking. The US policy of subsidizing all crops (including rice) has a direct impact on world prices. Just appalling idiocy here.
I live in India Madhya pradesh, In my town we have not good yield of rice and neighboring Chattisgarh the rice bowl of india also faced the same issue.
Chattisgarh is not the rice bowl of India, rather West Bengal is the rice bowl of India. West Bengal is the biggest producer of rice in India and specifically East Bardhaman district of West Bengal is called Rice Bowl of India.
Even though west bengal produces more , the name rice bowl is shared by andra Pradesh and Chattisgarh, chattisgarh is called rice bowl of India from the time of its birth , it produces more then 24000 variety of rice which is why it got its name , it's variety of rice , 1000 of which are unique only to chattisgarh. Which is why it's refers to bowl of rice of India , west bengal is not a bowl maybe more like a container 😂
@@harshsharma9233 You can give any name you wish, but Chattishgarh nor AP is not considered as Rice Bowl of India, at least not in West Bengal or other parts of India. Also, Chattishgarh does not have the highest number of rice varieties in India. Until 1970 (before the Green Revolution), India had about 110,000 varieties of rice and now it has about 6,000 varieties left. Out of that 6000 varieties In West Bengal, about 5600 rice varieties were cultivated, of which 3500 varieties of rice were shipped to the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) of the Philippines during the period from 1975 to 1983 for preservation. Today in West Bengal mostly 610 rice varieties are grown. Today IRRI has a total 16,746 rice accessions from India.
In Chattishgarh 22,000 folk varieties are claimed to exist, but many folk varieties are synonymous. Recently 76 varieties of rice from Chhattisgarh have been included in the 550 worldwide variety of aromatic rice. This gives an idea of exciting varieties In Chattishgarh which is probably around 100. But more accurate estimation can be found in IRRI record.
@@honeysup it's not me who calls which state is rice bowl of India or not , even a simple Google search will show how wrong you are , only two states are called rice bowl of India , andra Pradesh and Chattisgarh.

India ranks so low in hunger index so we need to ban rice until it's sufficient for our own people
1 yuan for you wumao
Exactly.
Rice is commonly grown in paddies for one simple purpose - weed suppression. Unaffected by flooding, the rice plant thrives while its competitors drown. The water serves as a natural form of herbicide. However, growing in water is not required, which is what makes rice such an interesting grain for home gardeners.

I think we should also point a finger at overcomplexity of combines and farm equipment as well as loss of right to repair for farmers.

Well, you can always replace "overcomplicated" equipment with more illegals.

I wonder how many farmers actually maintained their own new contemporary equipment. Sure some farmers may maintain really old equipment but I think that is survivorship bias rather than the standard course of action. I'm betting farmers during the 1950s paid mechanics from the dealer to repair their brand new machines. I say all this to say I don't think the right to repair has any major impact on farmers.

Rich countries are the types of places where shortages tend to hit last due to the money they have. I hope you and others who don't live in developed countries get past this.
No root veg available or plantains? Rice is poor choice compared to those anyway
Your forgetting with all the wars, "Wheat" prices has skyrocketed and you seeing the Middle East go crazy.

Rice takes up too much fresh water to grow. Exporting rice is essentially exporting water, with India's water tables drying up and shortage of water everywhere, India should dial down its rice exports for atleast a decade or two until better water management practices and solutions are implemented

The US national debt is three times higher than in 2008, personal debt is higher, college debt is higher, car debt is higher. About 50 countries around the world are on the brink of economic collapse. Oil is higher, food is much more expensive.

2007-08 was the depth of the Australian 10 year 2000 to 2011 "Millenium Drought". We went from exporting 90% of our rice production to importing most of our rice to eat. This coincided with the food riots in Egypt.
here is the real story and India's perspective is. This is especially for foreigners to understand.
India did give free grains because of the Russia-Ukraine war. Some European countries stockpiled that grain to pump up the price. Later they resold it at a higher margin.
Later India stopped grain export and said if you want the grain we will give you it on a case-by-case basis. India still giving grains to countries who really need them.
This is a typical bullying and preaching tactic that West does. They acting like a spoiled child. West caring about Indian farmers? give me a break.

Same here in Indonesia
There's not a rice shortage, there's a people surplus. 8 billion is nuts. Irrational. Totally unsustainable.
What country won’t restrict food exports when there are food shortages? If your country is not self-sufficient in food production, you should be very concerned. The idea of global trade in food was flawed to begin with, but failing to curb unmitigated climate change is a nightmare waiting to happen.
Didn't understand the entire theme.... are you unhappy that India subsidizes agri inputs ensuring a good harvest every year and keeping prices down. Or that India banned exports raising the prices making other producers competitive.....😂😂

india only ban curtain category of rice, it it have a exception, other country government can ask to supply rice to their country if , it creating any problem to their country. only government can ask , not private players
India banned this particular rice🌾category as China was buying rice🌾 in bulk from India and stockpiling it in their warehouses thereby increasing the price of rice globally. Too bad CNBC did not put that in the video. But then again, the World belongs to America WTO right!

There are supplies, suppliers and newer methods of farming, they are designed to be reconciled, since FARMING is important and vital to growth, preservation of GDP and approach to Technology, limited, as an aid, that supports growth. Its projections are definitely designed for many years. Teaching, learning and enjoying goods are incorporated with one another.😊
My understanding is rice doesn’t have to grow in water it can grow in the same soils but is one of the few that grows fully submerged so they do it for weed control!
Super easy to grow in massive quantities in a indoor farm too. Only problem is efficiency costs money and it is cheaper to just waste millions of gallons of water.
Not really. It requires stagnant water in different stages of growing.

India has every right to ensure that its population has adequate supplies of food. Modi is doing what Indian citizens elected him to do, which is to do what is in the best interest of Indian citizens. Globalist A-holes don't like, then so be it.
Of course, and when other countries do that with their main products Indian people will struggle to buy those things. We can protect ourselves but will have to deal with the pain when others do the same.
Hate to tell you, but the same Globalist A-holes control petroleum exports. Oil is 82% of India's imports. If it wasn't for India's import of Russian oil, they would be in much deeper trouble. These same Globalist A-holes could plug those shipping lanes and make it tough. In reality, India is still a third world country in most people's eyes, so its not even worth the effort. Africa running out of rice is not really part of the globalist's concerns.

in india we facing rice issue to we have reduced rice consumption by almost 50% and moved on to alternatives like ragi, wheat
Rice from states such as Arkansas, Texas and Louisiana could be unsafe to eat in quantity as it's grown in fields that were often used for cotton production in the past whereby pesticides were used to protect the cotton crops from insect predators.
Here in Louisiana we alternate raising crawfish and growing rice in the same fields. We are not having any problems with our rice over here.
Even if the reason is because of people manipulating the rice market, people need to understand that as the weather changes food will become harder to grow. People can either believe it now or they can believe it in the future as the weather keeps changing. Either way, nature doesn’t care if people believe in the weather is changing.
Rice is a rich source of carbohydrates, the body's main fuel source. Carbohydrates can keep you energized and satisfied, and are important for fueling exercise. Brown rice, especially, is an excellent source of many nutrients, including fiber, manganese, selenium, magnesium, and B vitamins.
Spooked by volatile foodgrain prices ahead of a general election next year, India's government has banned or taxed exports of most kinds of rice and wheat. While India is a large producer of wheat, it really dominates the rice market: its exports represent about 40% of the global rice trade.
There is a question: How Good Policies help keep rice price right?
None, it needs good rainfall. That balance is off now. Future will be volatile.
American famers are battling droughts, floods and market uncertainty while India's farmer are assured of their rice produce and the price they get. Amazing that climate change does not affect India as per CNBC.
Absolute BS. Rice ban was put in place due to uncertain weather in India, affecting the crop yield. To avoid internal shortage of food the ban was necessary.
India is just looking out for India. Maybe USA should try that.
Not only that but also the loss of exports will mean lower imports for India of other goods that they need, since the international exchange obtained in that trade will ofc not happen.

@@questions_answered With the overall price of rice that exports contribute to reaching, you get more investment in rice farming, more modernization etc, and it’ll end up being as cheap or cheaper as if you didn’t do the export ban. Ofc that’s in the medium to long-term. Meanwhile the income of farmers improves as well, but yes….when you artificially suppress the price, investment in producing that good is gonna tend to be lower. Not just because of raw differential in creates in the price and the profit margin, but bcuz of the uncertainty in gov policy, like what other things for political reasons are they gonna get up to that disrupts the rice industry.
Climate change has threatened crops in India in recent years, resulting in declining yields. As a result, it is imperative to take action to feed 1.4 billion people.
