Thai rice exports have surged
From January to September 2022, Thailand exported 5.41 million tons of rice, up 40 percent year on year, with exports reaching 95.232 billion baht ($2.54 billion), up 36 percent.
The Thai Rice Exporters' Association forecasts that Thailand will export 7-8m tonnes of rice this year as a weaker baht gives it an edge in competition with India and Vietnam.
