Vietnam June agriculture markets mixed as coffee rebounds to 89,000 dong/kg

Tuesday, July 7,2026

AsemconnectVietnam - Vietnam's agricultural markets posted mixed price movements in June 2026, with gains in rice, coffee, rubber, and some fruit, while pepper, live hogs, and aquatic products declined amid weaker demand or increased supply.

Vietnam's 5% broken rice export price rose to $410-$415 per tonne at the end of June, up about $5 from the end of May, according to Reuters market data, as concerns over a potential El Nino weather pattern raised expectations of lower crop output across Asia.

Thai 5% broken rice prices climbed more sharply to $480-$500 per tonne, around $30 higher than a month earlier, prompting some African buyers to switch to Indian rice priced at $340-$346 per tonne.

Vietnam's Ministry of Agriculture and Environment said global rice markets were closely monitoring the upcoming Asian harvest, with forecasts pointing to a stronger El Nino during July and August. Weather concerns have encouraged several importing countries to build food reserves, supporting Vietnamese export prices.

Domestically, prices of early Summer-Autumn paddy in the Mekong Delta were mixed as supply remained limited and trading activity subdued.

Prices of fresh paddy varieties, including IR50404, OM5451, OM18 and Dai Thom, increased in An Giang province, while prices of dried paddy eased slightly in Dong Thap province. Rice prices were generally steady to higher, with ordinary rice and Jasmine rice recording notable gains in An Giang. Export-oriented rice materials also rose, reflecting expectations of stronger demand in the coming months.

Coffee prices recovered in Vietnam despite weaker global markets.

London July robusta coffee futures fell $31 from May to $3,535 per tonne, while New York July arabica futures declined 19.2 U.S. cents to 265.3 U.S. cents per pound on expectations of a large Brazilian crop.

Domestic coffee prices, however, recovered to above 89,000 dong per kg at the end of June, after briefly touching 90,000 dong during the month. Farmers increased sales to lock in profits, although remaining inventories were limited. Purchase prices across the Central Highlands rose by about 700-800 dong per kg from May.

Vietnam's black pepper prices weakened in June. Prices in Dak Nong and Dak Lak fell 3,000 dong to 139,000 dong per kg, while Ba Ria-Vung Tau declined 2,000 dong to 137,000 dong. Prices in Gia Lai, Binh Phuoc and Dong Nai were unchanged at 137,000 dong.

The agriculture ministry said weaker buying interest, cautious trading and limited domestic supply kept the pepper market subdued.

Live hog prices also extended declines across Vietnam during June. Prices in the north fell about 1,000 dong per kg to 66,000-67,000 dong, while those in the central region and Central Highlands dropped around 4,000 dong. Southern prices recorded the steepest fall, down about 6,400 dong to 61,000-63,000 dong per kg, as higher supply outpaced demand.

Global livestock prices also weakened. July lean hog futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) fell 5.675 U.S. cents per pound to 93.825 U.S. cents, while August live cattle futures lost 4.675 U.S. cents to 243.575 U.S. cents following higher slaughter numbers reported by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

In contrast, industrial chicken prices increased across all three regions of Vietnam, while coloured chicken prices were stable to slightly higher. Egg prices were little changed but remained low because of ample supply.

Aquaculture prices continued to face pressure.

Prices of white-leg shrimp in the Mekong Delta declined across most size categories as harvesting accelerated. In Ca Mau province, prices for 20-count shrimp dropped by as much as 17,500 dong per kg from May, while prices for 30-100 count shrimp fell between 5,500 dong and 11,000 dong.

Black tiger shrimp prices also declined despite relatively stable domestic demand. Prices for commercial shrimp weighing 20-40 pieces per kg fell between 6,000 dong and 15,000 dong from the previous month.

Pangasius prices weakened in the first half of June before stabilising at 29,000-31,000 dong per kg by month-end. Fingerling prices also declined as supply increased during the peak breeding season and farmers slowed stocking activity. In Dong Thap province, commercial pangasius prices fell about 2,000 dong from May to 29,000-31,000 dong per kg for fish weighing 0.7-1 kg each.

Vietnam's Ministry of Agriculture and Environment said weather conditions, particularly the risk of El Nino in the coming months, together with global consumption and trade trends, would remain key factors influencing agricultural commodity prices.
