Rice trading in many localities has slowed down, mainly buyers taking rice that they have paid in advance. In An Giang, farmers continue to hold prices high, causing transactions to slow down. In Dong Thap, Can Tho , Vinh Long and Tay Ninh provinces, the rice harvest is still low, the demand for fragrant and sticky rice is quite good, so the price fluctuates little.

Rice export prices remain unchanged, international market is divided

Vietnam's rice export prices today remained unchanged from the previous session. According to the Vietnam Food Association (VFA), 5% broken fragrant rice fluctuated between 420 and 440 USD/ton, and Jasmine rice fluctuated between 447 and 451 USD/ton.

Rice exports are expected to fall 11.5% this year to around 8 million tonnes, the VFA chairman said, citing a sharp drop in exports to the Philippines. Customs figures confirmed that rice exports to the Philippines fell 18.5% in the first 10 months of the year to 2.96 million tonnes.

While Vietnam’s rice exports are expected to decline, domestic rice prices in Bangladesh remain high. This is despite the country having ample reserves and a bumper harvest. The price of premium rice in Bangladesh is currently at 80-85 taka/kg.

The country has imported 1.437 million tonnes of rice in 2024–2025 and another 500,000 tonnes from July to November, but rice prices have shown no signs of abating.
