The cost of rice is expected to go up in the coming months, as an improving global economy raises demand, and drought cuts production in countries such as India. Some economists say prices for rice, the Precision Castingstaple food for much of the world's population, could be returning to levels that sparked inflation fears in much of Asia last year.  Charuk Singhapreecha is dean of the faculty of economics at Thailand's Kasetsart University. He says prices-especially for Thai rice-are being pushed higher by new customers coming into the market after the economic slowdown of the past year. "They expect that the world demand will increase and Cast steel we expect that the price of rice will increase next year," Charuk said. "There are many new markets for the Thai rice and also we still have for our old customer-China, some Arab countries-they will increase the demand."  Prices on the global market could again near the record above 1,000 a ton set in the middle of 2008. This month, export prices for Southeast Asian rice have jumped from about 550 a ton or less to more than 650.  Vichai Sriprasert, president of the Thai Rice Exporters Association, says further weakness in the US dollar and concerns over drought add to pressure on prices. Market experts say next year India is likely to try to import three million tons of rice-entering the world market for the first time in 21years-because of a drought.  Vichai also warns that increasing demand for bio-fuels from grain could reduce food crops, forcing the price of food grains higher. "This is very serious. That's why the price of rice will not go back to the level that we used to see," Vichai said. "It will have to be elevated at a higher level, but I don't know where."  The Philippines this week said it is cutting rice imports because of high prices, even though the country lost more than a million tons of grain to typhoons this year. Officials from Vietnam, a leading export competitor with Thailand, predict prices will reach about 800 a ton by the middle of 2010. This week the Philippines'National Food Authority offered almost 665 a ton for 600,000 tons of Vietnamese rice.  Economists say higher food prices will only increase the problems faced by the region's poor, who are highly dependent on rice as a staple food.
