Chapter 4: The macroeconomy 
The rise in the price of rice was typical of a wide 
range of commodities. These price rises caused 
food and fuel riots in developing countries. As a 
result some governments turned to protectionist 
trade measures. Vietnam limited rice exports while 
Cambodia and Egypt banned all rice exports.
The Indian Government replaced the minimum 
export price that it enforced for non-basmati rice 
with a complete ban on rice exports. At the same 
time it placed restrictions on wheat imports for the 
purpose of disease control.
