Grain exports have already been restricted
India on Thursday banned the export of broken rice and imposed a 20 percent duty on exports of different types of rice. The world’s biggest rice exporter is trying to boost domestic supply and contain local price increases after below-average monsoon rains hampered the next planting season.
According to Sudhanshu Pandey, head of the Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Catering, the price of broken rice in the country has increased by 38 percent so far this year.
