Millers and traders are the suppliers of rice in the country. They\u2019re increasing the rice price after making a syndicate,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe millers always look for a pretext to increase the price to make extra profit. The price of rice may decline soon after the harvesting of Aman paddy,\u201d Jahangir said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The price of fine quality rice increased to Tk70-72 per kg from Tk65-68 in the last two weeks at the retail market while coarse ones like BR-28 and BR-29 were retailing at Tk60 per kg from Tk55.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mohammad Nizam Uddin, general secretary of Babu Bazar Rice Traders\u2019 Association, said the rice price sees a rise at the end of every season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, hartal and blockade have also contributed to the rise in its price as the transportation cost has gone up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe cost of transporting essential products increased due to the blockade, which pushed up the rice price by Tk100-200 per 50kg sack,\u201d Nizam said, adding that there is no crisis of rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He, however, said the price will be decline soon after new rice appears in the market in December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While visiting different markets in the capital on Thursday, this correspondent found that the price of most rice varieties went up by Tk2-3 per kg in the last two weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The price of fine quality rice increased on November 6 and that of coarse one on November 8, according to the Trading Corporation of Bangladesh (TCB).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The price of fine-quality Miniket and Najirshail increased by Tk2.27% and that of coarse rice by 2.4% in a month, it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shahzahan Talukder, owner of Mukta Rice Agency at Karwanbazar, said the price of all types of rice increased by Tk100-200 per sack to the countrywide blockade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said they had to hike the price at the wholesale market as millers raised it and the transportation cost has gone up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The country produced 3.91 crore tonnes of rice in FY 2023 and the last Boro season, it produced 2.07 crore tonnes of rice, up 3% from the previous season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The price of all types of rice has increased in the capital following a disruption to the supply chain due to the blockade enforced by BNP and its allies, multiplying the woes of consumers who are already struggling due to the inflationary pressure.
