Vietnam's rice industry is projected to maintain its global standing as one of the top three rice exporters in 2024, despite a recent decrease in export rice prices due to the country's main harvest season. The global rice supply disruption, caused by India's export restrictions, has led to increased demand for Vietnamese rice in South and Southeast Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and Canada. Although prices have dropped, they are expected to remain at a good level due to high global demand.
