Analisis del precio y desarrollo del mercado de arroz en el Mundo

1/1
Source: FAO. N.B. - The FAO Rice Price Index is based on 21 rice export quota ons. "Quality" is defined by the percentage of broken kernels, with higher (lower) quality referring to rice with less (equal to or more) than 15 percent brokens. The Sub-index for Aroma c Rice
follows movements in prices of Basma and Fragrant rice.
The FAO All Rice Price Index (2014-16=100) averaged 113.2 points in August 2020,
up 2.7 percent from July and 8.7 percent above its value a year earlier. August’s
increase was driven by Indica and Aroma c prices, which drew support from seasonal
ghtness and African demand. Tight Thai availabili es were also behind a mild
increase in the Glu nous Index, while the Japonica Index remained essen ally
unvaried for the fi h straight month.
Among the major Asian exporters, Indica quota ons rose the most in Viet Nam,
surging 11-12 percent above July levels to their highest since December 2011. The
hike came in response to an up ck in domes c demand, which coincided with
dwindling early summer-autumn arrivals and the execu on of offshore sales
previously reached. Prices also rose in Thailand, on increasingly ghter availabili es
and concerns over water supplies for irriga on. In Pakistan, offers were steady to
mildly weaker, ahead of the launch of harves ng opera ons, while in India,
favourable Kharif crop prospects weighed on higher quality Indica values, also capping
increases in lower-grade prices promoted by African demand. In the Americas, gains
in Brazilian paddy prices accelerated in August. This li ed Brazilian export prices to
levels not seen since late 2016, further reviving interest in Argen nian and Uruguayan
supplies and promp ng officials to announce that they would consider suspending
import du es on non-Mercosur rice. Although the resul ng prospects of reduced
compe on with South American origins and an an cipated resump on of Iraqi sales,
encouraged sen ment in the United States of America, US N.2 4% subsided from the
near seven-year highs held through July, as the 2020 harvest got underway.

FAO RICE PRICE UPDATE

4. 9/2/2020 About this bulletin
1/1
The FAO All Rice Price Index is based on 21 rice export quota ons. These quota ons are combined into four groups consis ng of Indica, Aroma c, Japonica and Glu nous rice varie es. Within each variety,
a simple average of the rela ve prices of appropriate quota ons is calculated; then the average rela ve prices of each of the four varie es are combined by weigh ng them with their (fixed) trade shares.
"Quality" is defined by the percentage of broken kernels, with higher (lower) quality referring to rice with less (equal to or more) than 15 percent brokens. The Sub-index for Aroma c rice follows
movements in prices of Basma and fragrant rice.
The FAO Rice Price Update provides monthly rice export prices from major origins and is released on a monthly basis. To subscribe to the FAO Rice Price Update and the FAO Rice Market Monitor, please
