The figures represent an increase of 10.4% in volume and 32% in value over the same period last year.
The country harvested 3.48 million ha of rice in the first half of 2024, up 0.5% year-on-year. The average yield reached 6.7 tonnes per ha, an increase of 0.7 tonnes per ha, bringing the total output to 23.3 million tonnes, up 1.6% year-on-year.

Although being the world’s second largest rice exporter, the country still imports certain types of rice for the production of animal feed./.
