Asian rice export prices have risen as Indian rates reach a one-year high amid supply concerns. Vietnamese prices are also increasing, expected to meet strong demand from the Philippines in November.

In Bangladesh, rising paddy prices have led to increased costs for consumers struggling with high living expenses.
