2025 Apr Paraguay Paddy Rice (HS100610) Export Snapshot: Sharp Drop

April Trend: Paraguay Paddy Rice Export

Paddy Rice, classified under HS Code 100610 (Rice in the husk (paddy or rough)), saw exports plummet in April, with value dropping 97.16% MoM to $32.50K and volume falling 96.58% to 130K kg. The sharp decline follows a volatile quarter, with February's record highs ($8.62M value, 25M kg volume) collapsing by March. The 16.84% MoM drop in unit price to $0.25/kg suggests weakened demand or pricing pressures. President Trump's April 2 executive order imposing a 10% global tariff likely disrupted trade flows, exacerbating the downturn. Paraguay's rice exports now hover near January's baseline levels after a brief February surge.

Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Brazil dominates Paraguay's Paddy Rice exports with 100% share in both value ($32.5K) and weight (130K units), revealing a bulk hub dynamic—weight share matches value share, indicating commodity-grade trade with no premium differentiation. This suggests Brazil serves as a volume-driven processing or re-export hub for Paraguay’s raw output. The absence of value-weight disparity implies cost-efficiency prioritization, likely tied to proximity or tariff advantages. For Paraguay, this single-channel reliance signals high vulnerability to Brazilian demand shifts and limited market diversification. Strategic focus should address value addition or alternate routes to mitigate concentration risk.
