Buyers from African countries can\u2019t afford to buy at the current price level,\u201d said Rao.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Supplies will improve once harvesting of the summer-sown crop starts from October, which will bring down local paddy prices and eventually export prices of rice, Rao said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Importing countries have few options since other big producers Thailand, Vietnam and Pakistan have raised prices in recent weeks, said a New Delhi-based dealer with a global trade house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Published in The Express Tribune, August 30<sup>th<\/sup>, 2023.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exporters halt consignments over 20% new duty MUMBAI: India\u2019s move to impose a 20% duty on exports of parboiled rice has prompted buyers and sellers to postpone shipments of around 500,000 metric tonnes to after mid-October to avoid paying the tax, three leading exporters said on Tuesday.
