Rice is produced throughout the country and is harvested in September and October in most regions. Industry contacts estimate that heat stress will lower yield and quality nationwide, resulting in increases in empty grains, smaller grains, chalky kernels, cracks in kernels and high protein levels, FAS Post Tokyo said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FAS sees rice consumption dipping slightly to 8.13 million tonnes in 2023-24, down 50,000 tonnes from the previous marketing year, based on projected weak demand for table rice. Area harvested is forecast to decline to 1.47 million hectares, down from 1.497 million hectares in 2022-23.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRice area has been on the decline over the years as aging farmers reduce or give up farming,\u201d the FAS said. \u201cProduction shifts from table rice to feed rice helped ameliorate the loss in rice production and area for recent years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Softening corn prices are expected to boost feed demand and imports in 2023-24. Corn imports are projected to reach 15.3 million tonnes in 2023-24, up slightly from 15 million tonnes in 2022-23, to satisfy 15.35 million tonnes of total consumption. The country\u2019s limited production is forecast at 11,600 tonnes, up 24% from the previous year on higher planted area.Japan\u2019s 2023-24 wheat production is projected at 1.12 million tonnes, up 6% from the previous year, based on higher harvested area and a yield recovery in Hokkaido (the northernmost of Japan\u2019s four main islands), which accounts for over 60% of production. Total consumption is seen at 6.25 million tonnes, down from 6.3 million tonnes in 2022-23 with imports at 5.45 million tonnes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TOKYO, JAPAN \u2014 Production of rice in Japan is expected to dip to 7.3 million tonnes in marketing year 2023-24, down from 7.48 million the previous year, as extremely high temperatures and little rain are expected to lower yield and quality, according to a Global Agricultural Information Network report from the Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8760,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[176],"tags":[332,320],"class_list":["post-8759","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-rice-market","tag-rice-production"],"acf":{"enable_premium_overlay":false},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
