Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Brazil dominates Paraguay's milled rice exports, accounting for 70.6% of value and 75.3% of weight, revealing a bulk hub dynamic where volume outweighs premium pricing.

Chile, the second-largest destination, shows a tighter value-weight gap (20.6% value vs. 17.6% weight), indicating slightly higher-value demand. The remaining markets are marginal, with no premium outliers.
