Export rice price today August 30, 2024
Vietnam's rice export prices decreased slightly compared to yesterday. Specifically, 100% broken rice was priced at 440 USD/ton, 5% standard rice fell to 578 USD/ton, and 25% broken rice fell to 545 USD/ton.
At the beginning of the year, Vietnamese businesses signed contracts to export rice to the Philippines at a price of $700 per ton. However, as they wait for the new import tax rate, Philippine traders have temporarily stopped receiving goods.
When the price of rice dropped to $600 per ton, Philippine traders requested to renegotiate the price and proposed $620-630 per ton. Vietnamese businesses agreed to this price.
Despite agreeing to the new price, Filipino traders continue to delay taking delivery of their goods while waiting for the new import tariffs. Currently, buying rice at $650 per ton is still a loss for businesses.
The leader of a rice business in Ho Chi Minh City said that with current rice prices, exporting to the Philippines causes the business to lose about 100 USD/ton.
Philippine rice importers are concerned that their Vietnamese counterparts may cancel supply contracts as they are asking to renegotiate contracts at higher prices, following the Philippine government's significant tariff reduction.
