Thai rice prices expected to decline through 1Q26, but may rise by around 0.8% YoY for full-year 2026 (Current Issue No.3617 Full Ed.)

คะแนนเฉลี่ย
  • Thai rice prices in 2025 are projected to contract for the first time in four years by approximately 10.9 percent, pressured by a surge in output driven by favorable weather conditions and a sharp rise of more than 34.2 percent in India’s rice exports. 
  • Thai rice prices are expected to continue declining by 0.9 percent in 1Q26, as supply remains high under persistent La Niña conditions and demand softens, particularly from major importer the Philippines, which has suspended rice imports. 
  • For full-year 2026, Thai rice prices are expected to recover slightly by around 0.8 percent, following trends in global rice prices, which may face supply shortages as rice production could be affected by hotter and drier weather conditions in the second half of the year.
