Iran-Israel Conflict Impact: Basmati Exporters Warn Of Payment Crisis, Falling Prices

The ongoing conflict between Iran and Israel is starting to take a serious toll on India’s basmati rice trade, with exporters on Sunday warning of a looming payment crisis and sharp price drops if the situation does not improve soon. All India Rice Exporters Association President Satish Goyal said that over 1 lakh tonnes of basmati rice meant for Iran is currently stuck at Indian ports.
“Iran is a very important market for us. Around 18 to 20 per cent of India’s total rice exports go to Iran. Every year, we export nearly 1 million tonnes of basmati rice to them,” Goyal told IANS, expressing deep concern over the disruptions.
