The spring peanut crop in Ha Tinh, Vietnam is experiencing a significant decrease in productivity due to erratic weather conditions, with yields dropping by 5-6 quintals/ha. This has led to a limited purchasing market and low selling prices, causing distress among farmers. The average yield in many areas is 5-6 quintals/ha lower than the annual average, and the market is expected to remain dull due to limited demand and increased transportation and warehousing costs.
