Miscellaneous Rice News

Monsoons Hit Indian Coast-According to the Indian meteorological department, the annual monsoon rains, vital for India's farm-dependent economy, have hit the country's southern coast raising hopes of early sowing of rice and other crops.

Industry experts feel that the early onset of the monsoons and forecasts of nearly normal rains, will help raise farm output, which may encourage the new government to lift curbs on rice exports, and allow futures trade in rice, which was banned amid fears of scarcity.

Monsoon rains are crucial for India's farm dependent economy and determines the fate of summer-sown crops like rice, soybean, sugarcane and cotton.

India Likely To Allow Non Basmati Exports -According to reports in the local media, the Indian government is likely to allow a further one million MT of non-basmati rice export to Africa, taking sales overseas sales to 2.5 million MT.

India had banned exports of non-basmati rice last year, joining other leading rice producers, which resorted to protectionist measures to stave off domestic shortages.

India recently allowed one million MT of non-basmati rice exports by state-run trading firms.

Higher MEP dents India's basmati export in 2008-09 - Higher minimum export price has dented the overseas sale of Indian basmati rice marginally by 3 per cent to 11.49 lakh tonnes during 2008-09 fiscal, compared to 11.83 lakh tonnes in the year-ago period.

Basmati rice export from India suffered due to an increase in minimum export price (MEP) to USD 1,200 a tonne, which not only made the aromatic rice expensive but also uncompetitive in the global market, according to rice exporters.

It was also pointed out that export cess of USD 200 a tonne, which was withdrawn in January this year after a gap of 10 months, made India uncompetitive as rival Pakistan was selling the aromatic rice cheaper by around USD 500 a tonne.

In 2008-09, the basmati rice shipments also include Pusa 1121 variety, which was the latest entrant to the elite aromatic rice group. The export volume of Pusa 1121 was estimated to be 40-50 per cent of the total Basmati export.

Since Pusa 1121 was notified as a Basmati rice variety only in October 2008, its shipment before that period is not included under Basmati rice category.

So, if shipment of Pusa 1121 is included, the export volume in 2007-08 would be much higher at about 18 lakh tonnes, exporters said.

The government had raised MEP on Basmati rice last year to curb exports and increase the domestic availability. It had also imposed export cess of USD 200 a tonne on the same.

Meanwhile, the export of non-basmati rice, which was banned for commercial purpose last year, stood at 7.44 lakh tonnes. India shipped non-basmati rice on humanitarian ground to few select countries.

The Centre first imposed a ban on rice export in October last year, but later lifted it by introducing an MEP on both Basmati and non-Basmati rice following protests by traders, exporters and farmers.
