India imposes curbs on basmati rice exports; contracts with value below $1200 a ton temporarily halted
India has imposed restrictions on the export of basmati rice, following the imposition of a 20% duty on parboiled rice. The government has set a minimum export price of $1,200 per ton for basmati rice shipments. Contracts below this price will be put on hold and evaluated by a committee.
