Domestic rice prices in Bangladesh rise this week

Sept 5 (Reuters) -India's rice export prices hit a three-month low this week due to weak exports demand, while Thai prices rose for a second straight week to their highest since late June, supported by a stronger baht.
Top exporter India's 5% broken parboiled variety RI-INBKN5-P1 was quoted at $535-$540 per ton this week, their weakest levels since May 16, down from the last week’s $540-$545.
"In the last few weeks, prices in competing countries have decreased. Indian exporters have been compelled to reduce prices to maintain competitiveness, yet demand remains weak," said a Mumbai-based dealer with a global trade house.
Indian authorities need to promptly cut or remove a floor price for basmati rice exports to help farmers to boost overseas sales of the premium grade and avoid a glut that would further erode farm income, millers said.
Thailand's 5% broken rice RI-THBKN5-P1 was quoted at $585 per tonne, up slightly from $580 per tonne quoted last week.
Prices rose to the highest level in over 2 months because the Baht strengthened against the dollar, said a Bangkok-based trader.
The African market has been quiet, the trader noted, adding that he expects the November supply to be good due to good water levels.
Meanwhile, domestic rice prices in Bangladesh have risen this week, with traders accusing some market players of exploiting the flood situation to justify the increase, despite ample stock and normal supply chains.
Vietnam's 5% broken rice prices RI-VNBKN5-P1 were offered at $575 per ton on Thursday, compared with $578 a week ago, according to Vietnam Food Association.
"Price is quite stable. Traders are still waiting for bidding results from Bulog," a trader based in the Mekong Delta province of An Giang said.
Another trader based in Ho Chi Minh City said trading activities stayed tepid post holiday.
