Traders are buying rice from farmers in Can Tho City for the 2025-2026 winter-spring crop.
(CT) - Compared to more than a month ago, the price of many types of rice in Can Tho City and the Mekong Delta provinces has increased by 100-500 VND/kg. The price of fresh rice varieties such as IR 50404, OM 380, and OM 34 is currently at 5,300-6,100 VND/kg in many places; while varieties like Dai Thom 8, Jasmine 85, Nang Hoa 9, OM 18, ST 24, and ST 25... have increased from 5,900-6,500 VND/kg to 6,300-7,000 VND/kg. The price increase is due to a sharp decrease in supply as many localities have harvested and sold all their commercial rice from the 2025-2026 winter-spring crop. Recently, many small traders and businesses have also stepped up rice purchases to serve domestic consumption and export.

Balut (fertilized duck eggs) and salted duck eggs are priced at 35,000-40,000 VND per dozen.

The low price of poultry eggs is due to abundant supply, while consumption in many localities is weak and export demand is limited.
