ConclusionsSanctions have hit sequentially #1 U.S. rice markets – Cuba, Iran and then Iraq3 markets now:
2.8 million metric tons $ 1.1 billion in sales
Equal to total U.S. long grain exportsCuba + Iraq account for 15% of U.S. exports

Summary – world without sanctionsU.S. would be competitive to capture Cuban market:
additional 450 thousand MT, $180 millionImpact on Cuba – higher quality rice
Not likely to gain more of Iraq marketCould gain up to 30% or Iran’s market
Additional 300 thousand MT, $120 millionCost to US rice sector from sanctions:
$400 million: under utilized production & millingEffect of sanctions: high costs on U.S. rice sector and small costs on importers
