Despite the negative impacts of the covid-19 pandemic and the war between Russia and Ukraine on the global economy, the rice trade balance showed rice exports from Brazil in June, the first half of the year, and the commercial year (July 2021 – June 2022).

Such positive results support the thesis that the foreign trade of rice will only improve in the coming months, assessed the Brazilian Rice Industry Association (Abiarroz), based on the economic sector’s figures provided by the Ministry of Economy.

In June, rice shipments (husk base) totaled 131.3 thousand tonnes, equivalent to US$ 36.9 million, 73% of which was processed. In the same month of 2021, foreign sales of the cereal totaled 70,200 tonnes, with sales of US$ 22.3 million. In quantity, points out Abiarroz, there was an increase of more than 80% and around 60% in revenue.
