Meanwhile, Ho Chi Minh City, Tay Ninh, Dong Thap, An Giang, Vinh Long, Can Tho and Ca Mau maintained the prices set in the previous session. However, if the downward trend continues, the high price zone in the South is likely to be adjusted down further.
This price adjustment is likely due to weak consumer demand, abundant supply and the lack of clear signs of recovery in the market. In addition, sluggish purchasing power after the summer holidays and unfavorable weather have also significantly affected pork consumption.
