"Last year, the growth in rice export also saw good jump of 49 per cent as compared to 2019. It is expected that this year too, there will be signifciant rise in rice exports. Earlier, India used to mostly exports its rice to gulf countries, however, now it has added two more countries—Bangladesh and China—from this year. Both of these countries are importing good volume of rice from India," said Chaturvedi.  

Basati rice is witnessing good demand with the world economies opening up amid Covid 19 pandemic, he said. Also, long basmati rice demand is expected to be doubled. "This, however, will benefit the entire sector," he said.   

The research analyst said India's poor logistics as compared to other rice exporting countries will only pose some problem. "If the country manages to improve infracstructure, it could be a game changer for this space," Chaturvedi opined.
