In a major boost to India\u2019s rice exports potential especially from eastern region, a consignment has been officially flagged off today from the Paradip International Cargo Terminal (PICT), Odisha to Vietnam.<\/p>\n

This is the first time in the history of Paradip Port, non-basmati rice will be exported. Sarala foods group will ship 20 containers of rice on Tuesday followed by around 500 containers over the next three months from PICT to Vietnam.<\/p>\n

A consignment of one of the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Exports Development Authority (APEDA)\u2019s member exporter M\/s Sarala Food will be shipped to Hai Phong port, Vietnam on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe rice exports through PICT would hugely boost India\u2019s exports of non-basmati rice to south-east countries while boosting income of at least two lakh farmers from Odisha and adjoining states,\u201d Dr. M Angamuthu, Chairman APEDA, said after inaugurating flagging off ceremony.<\/p>\n

During the April \u2013 February period of 2020-21, the shipment of Non-Basmati Rice witnessed an impressive spike.

The sharp spike in rice exports especially during a phase where globally the COVID19 pandemic has disrupted supply changes many commodities, has been attributed to the government taking prompt measures to ensure exports of rice while taking all the COVID19 related safety precautions.<\/p>\n
