Rice prices in the Mekong River Delta provinces of Vietnam have increased due to higher domestic demand and the impact of the Vietnam - EU Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA). The price of fresh rice ranges from 6,000 to 6,200 VND / kg, with an increase of 100-150 VND / kg, and high-quality rice also saw a price increase of 100-200 VND / kg. Export rice and finished rice prices also experienced a slight increase. In contrast, coffee prices continued to recover with slight increases in prices, while pepper prices in the Central Highlands and the South increased due to favorable export activities. On the Chicago Agricultural Product Exchange, prices of agricultural products delivered in maturity increased, led by wheat, in response to news that China could grant new batches of TRQ import permits to buy world corn. However, China's demand for US soybeans has slowed down this week.
