Rice prices in Indonesia crept up in the third quarter of 2022, for both premium and medium-quality rice.

The price increase had been recorded since August 2022, when the government received an award for rice self-sufficiency from the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI).

Then, the upward trend in rice prices continued in September 2022, after the government raised the price of subsidized fuel (BBM).

Based on data from the Ministry of Trade's Market and Basic Needs Monitoring System (SP2KP), in September 2022 the national average price of premium rice reached Rp12,600/kg.

This premium rice price increased by 0.8% month-on-month (mom), increased by 2.4% year-on-year (yoy), and became the highest record since 2018, as seen in the graph.

Price increases also occurred for medium-quality rice. In September 2022, the national average price of medium rice was at Rp10,600/kg. This price increased by 0.9% month-on-month (mom) and increased by 2.9% year-on-year (yoy).

Although increasing, the surge in medium rice prices until September 2022 was not considered high. The highest level was recorded in April 2021, where the price reached Rp10,800/kg.
