2017/2018 2018/2019 2019/2020

  • Over the last few years, Thailand has been able to achieve very large export figures due old crop

availability

  • Lower Inventories in Thailand Post liquidation of the government stock
  • Thailand ending stock has dropped from over 12Mn MT in 2013/14 to around 3Mn now
  • As that crop availability dwindles, exports are adjusting lower and more in-line with the country’s

production

  • Inventories in exporting countries (mainly India) will remain high
  • Importing countries will continue to see a drawdown in inventory as major importers

pursue self-reliance policies

  • Higher Inventories in China are expected to flatten in 2020

WR Prices have reverted back to 2015 lows as:

  • Exceptional import demand from Bangladesh and Indonesia has dried up
  • The major Exporting countries (especially India) continue to see high inventories
  • China has begun exporting cheap old crop; taking less imports (especially cross-border)

Thailand has less inventory and also sees risk of further shortage due to drought. Thai and Indian white rice prices have also been able to offer stability even as other markets fell to near-term lows

For Thailand rice:

  • Lack of overhang of the government inventory – No Cheap rice to export;

Market would substitute Thai Old Crop stock with Chinese Old Crop

  • Lower Ending stock compared to the other exporting countries – Firmer Prices
  • Weather related risk and derived shortages – Thai Rice at a Premium
  • Thai Rice continues to enjoy a High Quality Reputation

Thai Rice Global Market Outlook

“Re-Imagining Thai Rice” Maintain Thai Rice Premiums by meeting the Changing Consumer needs and develop the “core export demand”

Sustainability: Maintaining Thai Rice Premiums by meeting consumer needs

Note: quotes from consumers Research Mar/Apr 2019

“I want them to be ‘green’” Denver “I am a firm believer in Sustainability and good farmer relationships” Denver

Consumers are increasingly ethically-minded Food products with ethical claims is a US$250bn category with 4% growth per year Sustainable rice is gaining momentum

Traditional premium-led model is very limited for Rice

9

  • Premium Model: Higher income rice consumers,

who can afford to pay a premium for sustainable rice

  • These consumers purchase Premium Products

such as Thai Hommali Rice, mostly in high-end packaging

  • These niche markets can maintain a similar

model to coffee/cocoa, but only accounts for a about 10% of the global rice market

  • Sustainability can deliver the High end

Products that can command the premium

  • Sustenance Model: Majority rice consumers eat

cheap, non-fragrant rice, and its byproducts (e.g. brokens) as a cheap staple carbohydrate

  • Premium model will struggle with lack of margin
  • Sustainability Projects can help reduce the cost of

farming, improve milling yields – overall reduce the Cost

Thailand should be at the forefront of Sustainable Rice efforts

10

Thai Rice Department, GIZ & Olam led partnership from 2016 which aims at moving 16,000 farmers in Thailand to Sustainable standards

  • Olam has been the Pioneer in Sustainable Rice Initiative
  • Only Private company in the world to offer Sustainable rice in this scale
  • Premium Quality rice
  • Volume – Scalability
  • All assurances as per the SRP standard

Positive Impacts we have been able to achieve 1. Farmers have seen a 9% reduction in cost 2. Quality improvements have also improved incomes by a further 10% 3. Word of mouth has led us from 70 farmers in 2016, to 2,300 Farmers in 2018 and expected to be 6,000+ farmers in 2019 4. Water savings as high as 40%

To achieve transformational change through a paradigm shift from conventional to low-emission farming in Thailand

Goal

▪ Farmers have adopted the SRP Standard/GAP++ and thereby reduce GHG emissions and realize additional co-benefits. ▪ Mitigation services are provided in the market ▪ Innovative incentive schemes are established

  • n the national level to support the

transformation of the whole rice sector to low- emission production. ▪ 5 years from Aug 2018 – July 2023 ▪ 14.9 million Euro
