China opens domestic rice market to more importers to satisfy growing demand

China, the world's largest rice producer and importer, plans to start importing rice from South Korea and the U.S. in early 2016. The grain has long been a staple of Chinese diets, and the country's gigantic market offers a great opportunity to foreign exporters. Experts attributed the large amount of imports to the low cost and high quality of imported rice. They advised that China needs to make its agricultural production more advanced if it wants its rice industry to become more competitive.
