Vietnam's rice exports are expected to exceed 8 million tonnes for the second year in a row, generating around 5 billion USD in revenue amid a global decrease in rice supply. This surge is attributed to unfavorable weather, export restrictions in some countries, and increased import demand, particularly benefiting from India's export limitations. The Vietnamese government and the Vietnam Food Association are enhancing the rice industry through market development, trade promotion, and preferential trade agreements. Meanwhile, global rice market dynamics have led to price surges in countries like Indonesia due to supply shortages, and Vietnam is exploring opportunities in high-demand markets such as Senegal, despite modest exports there in the past. In the first two months of the year, global rice exports reached 920,000 tonnes, valued at $640 million, indicating a tight supply and a significant increase in value, with Vietnamese rice now reaching over 180 countries, including stringent markets like Europe, the US, South Korea, and Australia.
