Vietnam, which resumed rice imports from India after decades purchasing lower priced 100 per cent broken variety, has now begun to buy better quality grades to meet its other domestic needs.
“Vietnam is buying five per cent broken white rice from us since its production is lower. This five per cent broken is used for supply to its defence forces and industrial users,” said M Madan Prakash, Agri Commodities Exporters Association (ACEA) President.
