6. Philippines
Like Thailand, the Philippines also benefits from their large production of rice along with other products that are grown and exported from the country. They have seen a large amount of growth from their number of farm lands and the amount they yield. A lot of the areas in the Philippines, however, fail to reach the optimal amount of yield as a lot of the farms have not yet caught up to modern standards.
