In order to\u3000realize international food security, it is necessary to improve both food production\u3000and trade. This study focuses on rice exports from mainland Southeast Asia to Africa\u3000in the context of international food security, conducting a comparative analysis\u3000of exports from Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia. Through this analysis, the study\u3000will elucidate the current conditions of and challenges to international food security,\u3000with a focus on international food trade.<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"base_h5\">Description<\/h5>\n<p>The purpose of this study is to examine the development of rice exports\u3000from mainland Southeast Asia, which is the world\u2019s main rice export region, to Africa from the perspective of international food security. The study focuses on the growth of Thai rice exports to Africa, because half of the rice exports from Thailand, one of the world\u2019s major rice exporters, are destined for Africa, one of the world\u2019s main rice import regions. This study examines the varieties and the standards of rice exported from Thailand to Africa. It also analyzes Africa\u2019s food culture and changes in the consumption of rice consumption. <\/p>\n<p>First, from the perspective of international food security, this study clarifies the significance of rice exports from Thailand to Africa. Second, as half of Thailand\u2019s rice exports are exported to Africa, it is meaningful to analyze the growth of Thai rice exports to Africa in the context of the\u3000development of Thailand\u2019s rice export economy. Third, by focusing on the consumption of Thai rice in Africa, we can gain insight into changes in food demand and food culture on the continent.  <\/p>\n<p>The study will elucidate the historical background of the significant export of Thai rice to Africa providing valuable insights into the importance\u3000of rice exports from Southeast Asia to Africa from the perspective of international food security. In addition, the study analyzes the varieties and standards of Thai rice imported to Africa and how it is consumed in Africa, topics that have not been within the scope of academic research so far. This research is also expected to elucidate the transformation of African food culture and the characteristics of rice consumption in Africa.<\/p>\n<table class=\"table-caption\">\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fy2021iv-15-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fy2021iv-15-1.jpg\"\/><\/a><br \/>\nTanzanian ordinary lunch : fish in tomato sauce with rice [Photo by Dr.Makiko Sakai]\n<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fy2021iv-15-2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/fy2021iv-15-2.jpg\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nRice harvesting in the Mekong River Delta (G\u00f2 C\u00f4ng town, Ti\u1ec1n Giang province, March 2015) [Photo by Dr. Rui Takahashi]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project Leader : Miyata Toshiyuki (Tokyo University of Foreign Studies, Graduate School of Global Studies) Col [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_locale":"en_US","_original_post":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/?p=12496","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-12553","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-type-iv","7":"en-US","8":"czr-hentry"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8oDLW-3gt","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12553"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12553"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12553\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12843,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12553\/revisions\/12843"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12553"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12553"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www-archive.cseas.kyoto-u.ac.jp\/ipcr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12553"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
