Rice prices soar, fanning fears of food inflation spike in Asia
A confluence of factors is stoking fears that shortage of rice supplies could mark a return to a broad increase in the prices of other food commodities in Asia.

I think South East Asia is likely to be hit hard by India's rice export ban.
it's not inflation if it just gets more expensive. A rice inflation would mean there is too much and the price would drop but it's the oposite, it's a shortage. Arguably it's a food deflation. And it's due to extreme weather due to climate change. Silly Headline Writer (i didn't click on the article if anyone is wondering)
