Post forecasts that Marketing Year (MY 2022/23) harvested area and production will only slightly increase from the previous year due to a recovery from floods and storms, expectation of lower oil prices, and more adoption of technology. Post forecasts MY 2022/23 rice exports to the European Union (EU) will increase due to the lifting of its safeguard measures that restored access for Cambodian rice to the EU’s Everything But Arms (EBA) trade preferences. Post estimates MY 2021/22 rice exports will increase also due to increased Cambodian rice exports to the EU as well as reduced freight costs.
