The global Rice Market size is projected to surpass USD 334 billion by 2028, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.1% during the forecast period, 2021–2028. This growth is attributed to the increasing government support and initiatives for the domestic rice farmers market, as well as the growing consumption of rice across the globe.

Rice is one of the most consumed cereal staple foods all over the world. The scientific name for rice seed is Oryza sativa. The highest consumption of rice food or products is from the Asia and Africa region.

Rice food has high nutritional value, and hence it is one of the primary staples consumed by humans on a daily basis. Some of the commonly found nutrients in rice food are B Vitamins, folic acid, iron, zinc, selenium, magnesium, and potassium.

Additionally, several by products can be made from rice, including rice husk or hull, rice bran, and rice straws among others. Rice bran is the most important rice by product, as its fractions contain 14 – 18% oil. Rice bran oil is highly demanded in Asian countries such as India and Japan, due to its health benefits.

Rice Stock Forecast

The rice stock price was relatively stable around the world in recent years as compared to the other agricultural product stock prices. However, the recent curbs put by the Indian central government on the rice export is expected to increase the rice stock price, ending the decade-long price stability. India is the key player in determining the stock prices of rice worldwide. Indian rice covers almost 40 percent of the world’s rice trade, however, most yield is used for domestic consumption. The lower production from other countries owing to the inconsistent climate condition is also expected to drive the prices up. As per the recent forecast global rice demand is expected to surpass the production output in 2022 – 2023.
