Rice prices in Dong Thap province rose sharply after a long stagnation, with traders buying Dai Thom 8 and OM 18 paddy at VND 7,800-8,000/kg, about VND 1,700/kg higher than three months earlier. Milled rice gained VND 1,500-2,000/kg, but few farmers had paddy to sell because most fields are not yet ready for harvest.
Rising domestic paddy and milled rice prices raise Vietnamese export offer costs. Buyers are cautious because import policies in major markets could reverse prices quickly.
