NSW frees local rice market
19 Oct 2005
The NSW Government said it would deregulate the state’s domestic rice market, but maintain the single export desk. Around 98 per cent of Australia’s rice is grown in NSW. This season good spring rains in NSW should see a near doubling on last year’s Australian rice planting, rising to 80,000 hectares. But the area is unlikely to reach the long-term average of 150,000 hectares.
