* Lotus mirror increased in price
Currently, the selling price of lotus mirrors in many provinces in the Mekong Delta ranges from 17.000-20.000 VND/kg, an increase of about 5.000 VND/kg compared to the first months of 2023. The reason for the rapid increase in prices compared to the average is because of supply. There are very few in the market, so the lotus mirror attracts goods, leading to an increase in the selling price.
*Eel meat prices are high but lower than the same period last year
Many farmers raising eel and dog meat know that the current price of eel is only 95.000 VND/kg, down from 10.000 to 15.000 VND/kg compared to the first months of 2023 and lower than the same period to 25.000 VND/kg; Eel seeds cost 3.500 VND / head, down about 1.500 VND / head over the same period.
The current difficulty of eel farmers is the high price of feed while the selling price of eel has dropped sharply.
*Duck egg price reduced
The price of duck eggs in many provinces and cities in the Mekong Delta has decreased again from 2.000-5.000 VND/dozen compared to about a month ago. Currently, fresh duck eggs are sold to traders for 1-25.000 VND/dozen. And fresh duck eggs retail at many places at 29.500-30.000 VND/dozen. Duck egg prices decreased due to abundant supply and lower consumption demand compared to before, especially many salted egg production establishments no longer buy fresh duck eggs as before.
* Gas prices are expected to increase in the last months of the year
From July 1, 7, gas prices continued to decrease. Accordingly, each 2023 kg gas cylinder delivered to consumers will further reduce about 12-18.000 VND, depending on the brand.
Thus, from the beginning of the year to now, the domestic gas price has decreased 5 times (January, March, April, June and July) and increased twice in February and May. However, according to experts, the trend of gas prices may change direction in the last months of the year due to preparing fuel for the winter as well as the year-end festival.
