Invited by the Guatemalan Rice Council (ArrozGua), Dwight Roberts (USRPA Trade Service Advisor) participated in a board meeting of ArrozGua this week in Guatemala City. The visit provided an opportunity to talk about the complexities of the current market and the outlook for 2023. Dwight also enjoyed observing activities of the ArrozGua demonstration kitchen used for rice cooking promotions and training, visiting several supermarkets, meeting with Rachel Nelson, Agricultural Counselor at the U.S. Embassy, and discussing specific issues with individual Guatemalan rice mills and farmers. The USRPA has enjoyed an extensive and positive relationship with ArrozGua since both organizations were founded some 25 years ago.
