Specifically, Dak Lak maintained its pepper purchasing price at VND 147,000/kg.

The price of pepper in Ba Ria - Vung Tau remained steady at VND 144,000/kg.

Ms. Hoang Thi Lien, President of the Vietnam Pepper Association (VPSA), stated that Vietnam's pepper exports are estimated to reach $ 1.4 billion this year, setting a new record for the industry.

This achievement is attributed to the recent upward price cycle of pepper, which is currently maintaining a level nearly double that of previous years.

Currently, the country has over 115,000 ha of pepper and spice crops, with more than 75,300 ha concentrated in the South Central Coast and Central Highlands regions. However, the pepper sector is facing numerous challenges.

Among these challenges are climate change, shrinking cultivation areas, and the rising costs of irrigation and disease prevention to maintain productivity. These factors significantly affect competitiveness.

Experts note that pepper prices have transitioned out of their downward cycle and are now entering an upward trend due to declining supply. However, as the demand for early-harvest purchases is not yet high, farmers are advised not to rush into selling their pepper prematurely. Particularly, they should avoid borrowing capital to stockpile pepper to mitigate risks from market fluctuations.

Thus, as of December 3, 2024, domestic pepper prices are trading around VND 144,000 - 147,000/kg.
