India invokes WTO peace clause for FY25 rice subsidies for farmers

Wait 5 sec.

India has once again utilized the World Trade Organisation peace clause. This is the seventh time the country has invoked this provision. It allows India to exceed the 10% subsidy limit for rice farmers. The government informed the WTO about providing subsidies worth $7.6 billion. This represents about 11.85% of the total value of rice production.
