VOV.VN - Vietnam’s rice exports are facing mounting pressure from falling export values, cheaper supplies from rival producers and market-specific disruptions, prompting calls for better quality, stronger supply chains and greater market diversification.

Vietnam plans to export approximately 7 million tonnes of rice in 2026, down from 8 million tonnes last year, with a gradual reduction to just 4 million tonnes by 2030, according to Do Ha Nam, Chairman of the Vietnam Food Association (VFA).

Vietnam had exported more than 7 million tonnes of rice as of October 15, but domestic paddy and rice prices have fallen amid slower purchases by exporters, according to the Vietnam Food Association (VFA).

Vietnam exported nearly 5.9 million tonnes of rice worth over US$3 billion as of August 15, according to the Vietnam Food Association (VFA).

VOV.VN - Vietnam's rice export prices have reached the highest levels globally, surpassing those of other leading rice exporters such as India, Thailand, and Pakistan, reported the Vietnam Food Association (VFA).
