Burma: Rice Trade - Monthly

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   BM2021-0024

Post forecasts lower rice exports in August due to the closure of all border checkpoints along the Burma-China border and poor demand from African and EU countries. Domestic prices for both Emata and Shwe Bo Pawsan will likely increase in August due to an anticipated poor export demand and slow rice mill operations due to COVID-19.
