According to the Vietnam Food Association, Vietnam’s 5% broken rice price rose to the highest level since December 2021 at between $410-415 per tonne on March 10, compared to $400./ton in the previous week.
Vietnam’s rice export prices have risen thanks to the reopening of trade routes with China, and some traders said that many people had to look for alternative sources of goods due to the Ukraine crisis.
Experts say rice shipments to China are expected to increase as the country opens its borders with Vietnam after lifting Covid-19 precautions. The ongoing crisis in Ukraine could prompt some customers to import more rice from Asia, including Vietnam.
Most of the prices of oil, gas, food or consumer goods have increased.
According to PV research, everything from gasoline, gas, wheat to oil or fertilizers saw prices skyrocket as tensions between Russia and Ukraine reached their peak. Ukraine and Russia are the world’s largest suppliers of wheat, corn and barley, exporting more than 75% of the world’s sunflower oil. As a result, tensions between the two countries have caused cooking oil prices to continue to rise to record highs.
In addition, cooking oil is also a raw material used in the production of thousands of goods, from chocolate to confectionery and instant noodles. As a result, consumers around the world are paying higher prices for everyday consumer products.
