rice export bans

Rice export bans are government actions that temporarily prohibit or limit the sale of rice to other countries. These measures are usually implemented to protect domestic supply, stabilize local prices, or address food security concerns during shortages or emergencies. While they can help ensure enough rice is available locally, export bans may also disrupt international markets, increase global prices, and affect rice producers in exporting countries. Such policies are often temporary and adjusted based on current supply and demand conditions.
