In Can Tho and Kien Giang, traders have begun to return to the market, asking to buy at slightly higher prices, contributing to the push that has caused rice prices to increase slightly. In An Giang , farmers are offering summer-autumn rice more actively, and transactions are bustling again. On the contrary, in Dong Thap and Long An, the market is still trading at a standstill, with no new price fluctuations.
In the rice segment, the prices of export raw materials such as CL 555, IR 504 and OM 380 increased slightly by VND 50/kg, currently ranging from VND 7,850 to VND 8,350/kg depending on the type.

In localities such as An Giang, Lap Vo ( Dong Thap ), Sa Dec and An Cu (Tien Giang), the amount of goods arriving is still low, transactions are slow, and the prices of rice have not fluctuated significantly.

Rice export prices remain stable, low-emission rice opens up new expectations
On June 16, Vietnam's rice export market had no new price fluctuations. According to the Vietnam Food Association (VFA), the price of 5% broken rice remained at 388 USD/ton, 25% broken rice was 364 USD/ton, and 100% broken rice remained at 318 USD/ton.
However, the bright spot in export activities came from the first batch of low-emission rice exported to Japan - a market famous for its strict quality and environmental standards. This 500-ton batch was offered for sale at $850/ton FOB price at Ho Chi Minh City port and could reach over $1,000/ton CIF price at the import port of Japan. This is considered an important step forward, affirming Vietnam's capacity to produce and export high-quality rice, while meeting the requirements of sustainable development.
At the same time, the Chinese market has also recorded a strong comeback. In the first 4 months of the year, China imported nearly 362,000 tons of rice from Vietnam, an increase of 114% compared to the same period in 2024. Notably, China no longer focuses on cheap rice but has shifted to ST25 rice, fragrant rice and sticky rice - products with higher added value, suitable for the new consumption needs of the people of this country.
Sharing about export trends, Mr. Do Ha Nam - Chairman of VFA - said that global demand for high-quality rice is increasing, but Vietnam currently does not have enough production to meet the demand. Therefore, the rice industry needs to focus on developing high-quality rice varieties, especially low-emission rice, to serve the international market and fulfill the commitment to net zero emissions by 2050.
