Export rice price

In the export market, Vietnamese rice prices have slightly adjusted compared to yesterday. According to the Vietnam Food Association, the price of 100% broken rice is currently 439 USD/ton, down 1 USD/ton. 5% standard rice is 537 USD/ton, down 1 USD/ton. 25% broken rice is 509 USD/ton, down 1 USD/ton.

The USDA market report for September predicts that in 2024, Vietnam is expected to export 8.6 million tons of rice, up 300,000 tons from the previous estimate.

This expected rice export volume is 500,000 tons higher than Vietnam's actual rice export volume in 2023, reaching 8.1 million tons.

This growth is attributed to strong demand from two key markets, Indonesia and the Philippines.

To achieve this record export target, Vietnam will also increase rice imports, with the total expected import volume in 2024 at 2.9 million tons, up from the previously forecast 2.6 million tons.

With such import volume, Vietnam will become the third largest rice importing country in the world, after the Philippines with 4.7 million tons and Indonesia with 3.8 million tons.

The opening of India’s rice warehouses has reduced the price of 5% broken rice on the international market to below $500 per ton. However, the same type of rice from Vietnam is still the highest price in the world, $50 per ton higher than other countries.
