Vietnam would be the third-largest rice exporter in 2022, behind India and Thailand, with shipments of around 6.4 million tons.

The ASEAN, with a population of nearly 700 million and similarities in culture and lifestyle, is a key market for Vietnam’s farm produce, including rice.

The fact that Ong Cua ST25 rice is being distributed in the UK market shows the quality and status of Vietnamese rice on the global market.

Over eight months, the country exported nearly six million tons of rice, generating revenue of nearly US$3.2 billion, up 21% and 35% year-on-year, respectively.
