The correct answer is B) India.

In recent years, specifically over the last five years (leading up to when this question was likely framed), India has consistently been the world’s largest exporter of rice. Countries like Thailand, Vietnam, Pakistan, and the United States are also major rice exporters, but India has held the top position.

India’s dominant position in rice exports is due to its large production volume and competitive prices. While China is the largest producer of rice globally, it is also a massive consumer and often needs to import rice, rather than being a major exporter. The global rice market is dynamic, but India’s position as the leading exporter has been stable in the recent past.
