1. What country is the second largest exporter of rice? How much rice does it export annually?

Answer:

Hanoi- Vietnam plans to reduce its 2007 rice exports by 16.5 per cent against last year to ensure food security in the face of widespread pest infestation, an official said Friday. The world's second largest rice exporter set a target to export 4 million tons of rice this year, compared with nearly 4.8 million tons last year, according to Trang Hieu Dung, director of the Planning Department under the Ministry of Agriculture.
