Thailand: The Impact of Drought on Agriculture in 2020

Analysts predict that the current severe drought in Thailand will cause losses in agricultural production estimated at approximately 26 billion Thai Baht (U.S. $840 million), mainly due to reduced MY2019/20 off-season rice production. The drought is also expected to affect off-season field crops, fruit trees, and freshwater fish farming production but to a much lesser degree than for rice.
