For the marketing year (MY) 2024/25, Post lowers rice harvested area and production to 11.4 million hectares and 36.6 million metric tons (MT), respectively, due to an estimated loss of around 300,000 hectares of aman season rice from two consecutive floods in August and October 2024. Post forecasts an increase in rice imports for MY 2024/25 as the Government of Bangladesh has lowered the import tariffs following the floods.
