# Paddy and rice prices rise in Dong Thap: Farmers upbeat

> Paddy and rice prices in Vietnam’s Dong Thap province have risen sharply in recent days after an extended period of decline. Dry paddy prices increased by about 1,200 dong per kilogram and fresh paddy by about 1,700 dong over ten days; rice prices rose by 1,500–2,000 dong per kilogram, with stronger import demand—especially from the Philippines—supporting exports.

## Why it matters

Stronger import demand is lifting Vietnamese rice prices and improving returns for growers and exporters. If the demand persists into the next harvest, it could support further gains in regional rice prices.
