Dear ยายธี : Thank you.

I am keeping my radar on. It seems that with floodings in many countries and world demand (or population) rising, the trend is the world price for rice to rise.

But the demand for varieties in diet also say 'niche markets' (for red, black, wild,... odd varieties of rice) would enjoy better return for producers.

PS I am to blame fot not checking the way my blog looks -- with many html tags added in (G2K textbox - the slot we we write/type into. Help! Can g2k support team do something? Does this come from 'outsourcing hire hands?)
