Tra Vinh province in Vietnam is facing severe losses among its gardeners, particularly in Cau Ke district, due to a drastic drop in fruit prices. Oranges and Taiwanese and Thai mangoes have seen the most significant decrease, now selling for 2,000-4,000 VND/kg, a quarter of the previous price. This situation has led to financial losses and disappointment for growers, with some considering it the worst year in terms of fruit pricing. The province, with 19,000 hectares of fruit trees, primarily in Cau Ke district, is struggling with market oversupply and low prices.

They are also seeking support from local authorities to connect with cooperatives that can offer a stable source of fruit consumption at better prices.
