Lobster prices in Van Phong Bay, Vietnam have dropped by over 1 million VND/kg due to transportation challenges and a decrease in demand from the Chinese market during the COVID-19 epidemic. This is further compounded by a significant increase in the cost of feed bait, leading to financial struggles for lobster farmers. The situation is worsened by the high risk of loss due to the need for debt rescheduling and freezing, as many farmers are facing reduced output and high costs.
