TOKYO, July 23 (Reuters) - Japan will effectively raise the portion of rice it imports from the United States as part of the bilateral trade deal, Japanese public broadcaster NHK reported on Wednesday.
Japan will keep the overall "minimum access" framework for rice imports, according to the report.
Under a World Trade Organization (WTO) minimum access framework introduced in 1995, Japan imports about 770,000 metric tons of rice tariff-free every year.
