Carry over concentrate almost 80 – 90% in middle man and processor/exporters warehouse.
Almost farmer cleared stock already.

Pepper crop affected because farmers are less caring, less fertilizing than beforedue to low prices under cost, intercropping with other fruit trees... the string ofpeppercorn was sparse, the phenomenon of sparse string in pepper spreading fromalmost all key pepper areas of Vietnam.
In addition, the price was low while the labor cost increases steadily every year.
It will significantly affect the yield for the 2021 & 2022 crop.

Pepper prices are lower than production costs, so farmers neglect and do not take careas well as before

Pepper prices will continue to fluctuate at different times. However, the back bottom price will be higher than the previous one and the price increase trend will be about 10-25% next year as foreseen as the crop is severely affected in 2021.

If the price grows well next year, it will stimulate the farmers to re-care and the crop will gradually improve in 2022/2023
