But Marcos said supply from Vietnam might become limited as other buyers crowd in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI think we can make a deal with India. Maybe there\u2019s someone there we can talk to,\u201d Marcos said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A spokesman for India\u2019s food ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brecorder.com\/news\/40255163\">Thai, Vietnamese rice prices hit over decade highs on India curbs<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>India last week banned exports of non-basmati white rice &#8211; its largest rice export category &#8211; to ease domestic prices that climbed after rains caused significant crop damage. New Delhi left open the door for government-to-government deals, saying it would consider meeting the requirements of countries in need of rice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ban is expected to halve shipments from the world\u2019s largest exporter of the grain. After the decision, prices of rice exported from Vietnam and Thailand soared to their highest in more than a decade this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>India accounts for more than 40% of world rice exports, and low inventories with other exporters mean a cut in shipments could inflate food prices already driven up by Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine last year and erratic weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEveryone is buying simultaneously,\u201d Marcos said. \u201cThat\u2019s why I\u2019m getting nervous over possible spikes in (local) prices even if we import.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Philippine rice imports are handled by private traders. But the state agency procuring rice from local farmers for buffer stocking can import some volume upon approval by the president in an emergency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MANILA: Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said on Saturday the country must boost its rice stocks and that he may seek a supply deal with India, worried about the potential impact of El Nino dry weather on the local harvest and about other suppliers. \u201cI\u2019m thinking about the national supply for rice,\u201d Marcos told officials [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5990,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[176],"tags":[215,46],"class_list":["post-5989","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-basmati-rice","tag-asian-rice"],"acf":{"enable_premium_overlay":false},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
