Our 2026 rice symposium, will held in London on 15 October. This meeting held every two years, is the leading event for the rice sector. We are delivering the symposium in conjunction with USA Rice, drawing in influential speakers and delegates form the United Kingdom (UK) and overseas. It will be a great opportunity to network and exchange ideas.

 

Rice is one of the world's major food grains, meaning that rice market developments are closely followed by governments as well as businesses. It is also a source of sustenance, pleasure, and enjoyment for hundreds of millions of people across the globe.

 

In this one-day event we will touch on the key factors shaping the industry in the long term, including: sustainability, international trade, and global markets. These are all in the context of supplying food made to the highest standards that meet changing customer demands.

 

The rice symposium is a great place to learn more about the factors driving our industry in the UK, to network and exchange ideas. Speakers include Crop Science Centre, Flint Global, International Grains Council, International Rice Research Institute and USA Rice.
