According to the Vietnam Food Association (VFA), Vietnam's rice export prices on June 11 did not record any new fluctuations. Specifically, 5% broken rice remained at 393 USD/ton, higher than Pakistan (392 USD/ton) and India (384 USD/ton), but lower than Thailand (401 USD/ton). 25% broken rice and 100% broken rice were offered at 364 USD and 321 USD/ton, respectively.

On the supply side, An Giang province aims to cultivate 618,000 hectares of rice in 2025, with an expected output exceeding 4 million tons. The highlight of the local rice industry is the orientation to shift to high-quality, environmentally friendly production, serving official export.

Cultivation models following the standards of “1 must, 5 reductions”, VietGAP and GlobalGAP are being replicated. Many growing areas have international codes and certifications, helping An Giang rice expand exports to demanding markets such as the US, South Korea and the EU.

Currently, more than 90% of An Giang's rice exports are concentrated in Asia, the rest is distributed to Europe, Africa and Oceania. However, export activities still face many challenges due to the impact of the global economic recession and geopolitical tensions.

Although India has returned to exporting rice, it is estimated that this has had little impact on Vietnam's high-quality rice market share. Indian rice is mainly in the low-cost raw material group, while Vietnam, especially An Giang, is promoting fragrant, specialty, organic rice lines, targeting the high-end segment.

The An Giang Department of Industry and Trade said it will continue to strengthen trade promotion, connect businesses with trade counselors, and expand international distribution channels. Notably, from 2025, the province will implement the An Giang rice branding project to enhance its position in the world market, through official exports and cross-border e-commerce.
