Accordingly, in South Asia, India's domestic and international pepper prices recorded a decrease since the second week of February 2024. Increasing supply and weak demand have impacted the price of black pepper in the country.

In Southeast Asia, only Indonesian black pepper prices increased, while white pepper prices in this country have been stable since 3 weeks ago.

Due to the strong increase of 1% in the Malaysian Ringgit against the USD (4.72 MYR/USD), Malaysian domestic pepper prices have increased since last week. Meanwhile, export prices continued to be stable and unchanged. 

Prices of Brazilian black pepper, Cambodian black pepper and Chinese white pepper were stable last week. Meanwhile, black pepper and white pepper prices in the US market remained stable when export activities were limited.

Thus, world pepper prices on 03/17/2024 remain stable compared to yesterday.

Currently, it is the time of the main pepper harvest in the Central Highlands, so throughout the villages and hamlets in Dak Lak province, everywhere you can see the busy and bustling atmosphere of farmers. In particular, with the current high price of pepper, families with pepper gardens are even more excited.

In the 2024 pepper crop, the average yield of the entire Cu Kuin district (Dak Lak province) is expected to reach about 3.2 tons/ha, with an estimated output of about 13,000 tons. 

According to Mr Nguyen Canh Danh - Deputy Head of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Cu Kuin district, the peak time for pepper harvesting takes place around February every year. During the harvesting process, people always prioritize picking ripe pepper bunches to improve the productivity and quality of the garden. 

After harvest, farmers mainly use natural drying, with few households using ovens. During the consumption process, pepper-growing households mainly trade with collectors or purchasing establishments in the district, with the main product still being black pepper.

Currently, the whole district has about 50 pepper collectors and nearly 20 pepper purchasing establishments concentrated in regions with relatively large pepper areas of the district.  

Mr. Nguyen Cong Van - Vice Chairman of Cu M'gar District People's Committee said that the local pepper area and output are at the top of Dak Lak province. However, although pepper prices have increased continuously and are much higher than every year, output has decreased.

According to Mr. Van, the decrease in output is due to the decrease in pepper prices in recent years combined with the old pepper garden not being replanted, causing the growing area to decrease, thereby leading to a decrease in productivity.

Thus, the domestic pepper price on 03/17/2024 is trading around VND 93,500 - 95,500/kg.
