A confluence of factors is stoking fears that shortage of rice supplies could mark a return to a broad increase in the prices of other food commodities in Asia.

    I think South East Asia is likely to be hit hard by India’s rice export ban.

    it’s not inflation if it just gets more expensive. A rice inflation would mean there is too much and the price would drop but it’s the oposite, it’s a shortage. Arguably it’s a food deflation. And it’s due to extreme weather due to climate change. Silly Headline Writer (i didn’t click on the article if anyone is wondering)

      it’s not inflation if it just gets more expensive. A rice inflation would mean the grains become bigger and the price would drop, but it’s the oposite. Arguably, it’s a food deflation. And it’s due to the excess of water. Silly Comment Writer (i did click on the article, but did not read it, if anyone is wondering) /s
