Tridge summary

The article reports a significant decrease in the prices of pork, cattle, poultry meat, and various vegetables, tubers, and fruits in Hanoi, Vietnam due to an abundant supply and decreasing purchasing power. Surveys at local markets show price drops for items like zucchini, melon, and gourd, while spring-summer vegetables are also cheaper this year. The decrease in vegetable prices is attributed to overproduction and the economic impact of Covid-19, leading to slow market demand. Despite the challenges, Hanoi manages to meet 70% of its citizens' daily vegetable consumption needs through the planting and harvesting of around 3,000 hectares of spring-summer vegetables. The article emphasizes that the main issue is the surplus of vegetables not signed with stable consumption channels, which results in deep discounts.
