# Lower prices will make it easier to sell rice: exporters | VOV.VN

> Vietnamese 5% broken white rice fell US$20 per tonne in a week after reaching a nine-year high in late March. Thai and Indian quotes are also lower, with the Thai decline tied to a weaker baht and the Indian decline to a weaker rupee. Exporters say the lower prices will make it easier to sell Vietnamese rice.

## Why it matters

Lower Asian export quotes reduce the price floor for global rice and may draw buyers toward cheaper Indian grades. The currency-driven drop is likely to keep benchmark rice prices under pressure in the near term.
