    Rice Market Monitor - March 2004 2004
    Also available in:

    FAO first forecast of global paddy production in 2004 has been set at 613 million tonnes, 22 million larger than last season, and the highest level on record. The figure is highly tentative, since countries in the Northern Hemisphere still have to plant their main crops. So far, the outlook for the Southern Hemisphere countries, where harvesting is underway, is generally positive.

    Rice Market Monitor - January 2004 2004
    Also available in:

    As the 2003 rice season is coming to an end, production estimates have become of greater certainty. The latest figures point to a 3 percent increase in global paddy production to 591 million tonnes in 2003 as a favourable monsoon should make output rebound in Asia. The recovery is mainly on account of India, which was affected by unfavourable weather in the preceding season. Increases are also anticipated in Bangladesh, Cambodia, Myanmar, Pakistan, the Philippines and Thailand. By contra st, output tended to stagnate in Indonesia and Vietnam and to fall in China, Japan and the Republic of Korea.

    FAO forecast of global paddy production in 2004 has been raised marginally to 613 million tonnes, which would be 21 million tonnes more than last season and the highest level on record. However, at this period of the year, the forecast is still highly tentative, since the season final outcome will be largely influenced by the timing, extent and distribution of the rainfall during the Asian monsoon, just starting.
