At the conference, Mr Le Viet Anh, General Secretary of VPSA, assessed that the pepper market would experience unusual fluctuations, such as on the morning of June 11, when prices surged by VND 20,000/kg only to drop sharply again in the afternoon.

Mr. Viet Anh noted that pepper is increasingly competing with durian and coffee. New planting areas are emerging but not significantly, primarily intercropping pepper with coffee at a 6-2 ratio. The next harvest is expected to be similar to or slightly higher than in 2024. The remaining stock among farmers is not much, and pest and disease conditions, while present, are not severe.

Vietnam's pepper exports in the first six months of 2024 reached 142,500 tons, with a harvest yield of approximately 170,000 tons in 2024, leaving an estimated 28,000 tons remaining. The stock from the 2023 season, plus imports in 2024 amounting to around 40,000-45,000 tons, suggests that the export supply from August to the end of the year will be lower than in previous years.

Additionally, the impact of climate change, such as El Niño and La Niña, is becoming more severe, leading to some pepper farms experiencing waterlogging, which increases the risk of diseases, fruit drop, nutrient deficiency, yellowing leaves, and pest infestations.

Pepper production in other countries, including Brazil and Indonesia, is also forecasted to decrease this year, which will affect the supply in the last months of 2024.

Thus, domestic pepper prices on 08/04/2024, are trading around VND 146,000 - 147,000/kg.
