Question
ASEAN climate outlook flags Thailand rice belt drought as El Niño pushes prices to 18-month highs
Direct answer
Tighter Thai rice supply and higher prices are bullish for Asian rice futures and could pressure food-importing markets such as PH, ID and BD, while supporting THB agricultural export revenues but adding to Thai CPI and helping keep upward bias on Thai government bond yields.
