Geographic Concentration & Market Logic

Brazil dominates Paraguay's Paddy Rice exports, accounting for 84.4% of value and 87.8% of weight, signaling a bulk hub relationship where volume outweighs premium pricing—typical of raw material flows to a processing neighbor. Portugal, the second-largest destination, shows a slight value premium (11.2% value share vs. 9.7% weight), hinting at niche demand for higher-grade rice. The near-parallel value-weight ratios across other minor partners (e.g., UK, Poland) reinforce a cost-driven supply chain, prioritizing mass over margin. This structure reveals Paraguay’s role as a low-cost bulk supplier to regional processors, with limited penetration in premium markets.
