Rice miller plans to export 10,000 tonnes
State-owned rice miller Green Trade plans to export about 10,000 tonnes of milled rice to Libya this year, an insider has revealed. Thon Virak, director of state-owned rice exporter Green Trade, told the Post yesterday that he had signed an export deal with a private company in Libya, adding that his company had already exported about 1,000 tonnes between January and February to the North African country. … Milled rice can be sold at $400 a tonne to Libya, and its market demands only 15 per cent broken rice, Virak said. … Cambodia exported 187,119 tonnes of milled rice last year, according to data from the Ministry of Commerce.
