Vietnam: Grain and Feed Update
Link to report:
Post revised Vietnam’s marketing year 2020/2021 (MY20/21) total harvest area down to 7,305 thousand hectares (THA), but production up to 27.38 million metric tons (MMT) (milled rice equivalent) on higher production of the autumn crop. As the shift from paddy production to other crops and non-agricultural purposes continued, Post revised the MY21/22 total harvest area down to 7,300 THA, but production up to 27.19 MMT, considering efforts in adjusting the seedling schedule to prevent drought and salinity intrusion impacts. Post also revised its estimate for Vietnam MY20/21 exports and imports up to 6.3 MMT and 1.6 MMT. Higher production and imports result in higher stocks in MY20/21 and MY21/22.
