At present, pepper growing areas have ended the harvest, pepper output is more plentiful, plus the slowdown in exports due to the Covid-19 epidemic has caused pepper prices to drop.
Experts advise farmers to continue to be cautious, avoid mass selling at the end of the crop, because the cash flow stuck in March exports will return in the next few weeks.

“Global pepper prices have leveled off after rising sharply in the past. It is forecasted that in the coming time, pepper prices are likely to decrease due to concerns about the Covid-19 epidemic, many countries widening the social gap, and the demand for consumption will decrease, ”said the Import-Export Department.
