Since October, the prices of peanuts and rice in Dien Chau have increased sharply again. The price of peanuts has increased from 30,000 VND/kg to 40,000 VND; the price of hybrid rice has increased from 5,500 VND to 6,500 VND/kg, while high-quality rice varieties such as Bac Thom 7, Huong Thom No. 1, AC5 have increased from 7,000 VND to 9,000 VND/kg.
Because the low prices were not profitable in the past, many farmers and traders still stockpiled goods, waiting for prices to increase, so the current output of peanuts among the people is still about 2,800 tons, rice 35,000 tons. According to the assessment of enterprises and agricultural product purchasing agents, the price of rice and peanuts in the last months of the year may increase further due to the strong increase in domestic demand as well as export markets.

The increase in prices of agricultural products is a good sign for Dien Chau farmers to have more income to prepare materials and fertilizers to start producing more than 13,000 hectares of crops in the spring crop of 2018.
In Vinh city, the price of ordinary rice is 10,000 VND/kg, an increase of 1,000 VND/kg, and fragrant rice is 14,000 VND/kg, an increase of 2,000 VND/kg compared to last month. The reason for the increase is that traders are collecting goods to process Tet goods./.
