There are chances of further increase in prices of all varieties of rice in the coming weeks after it was officially confirmed that monsoon rains had damaged the crop severely in Sindh, sources told Dawn on Wednesday.
The data collected by Sindh government and sent to the federal ministry of food, agriculture and livestock (Minfal) revealed that the damage to the crops caused by floods had brought down production by 200,000 tons in the province.
Sources said the Minfal had expressed its concerns over such huge damages to the crop in Sindh. They said the crop had also been damaged in Balochistan.
