AsiaInfo Services 11-25-1999 Sharp Decline in Price of Rice CHINA, November 25, AsiaPort -- Price of newly produced rice has suffered a continuous decline since it was put on the market in October. Now the wholesale price is 1.90 to 2.00 RMB yuan each kg. The major reason is an oversupply.

The other reason is that some farmers sell rice at a low price in order to get cash at an earlier date. This situation is good news for consumers. Copyright 1999 AsiaInfo Services (via Comtex). All rights reserved
