India is also exporting a substantial
quantity of non-basmati rice to various countries in the world. However,
the export of non-basmati rice has been fluctuating year to year due to
weather conditions affecting the production of non-basmati rice. The
export of non-basmati rice from India was on its peak during 1995-96 and
a total quantity of 45.41 lakh metric tons was exported to different
countries in the world. Again the export crossed to 43.66 lakh metric
tons during 1998-99, but during subsequent years, the export of
non-basmati rice again came down significantly due to various reasons.
