A Government programme to a temporary stockpile of one million
tonnes of rice from the winter-spring crop has ensured that many farmers
in the Cuu Long (Mekong) River Delta earned profits, a meeting heard
yesterday in Long An Province.
The price of Viet Nam''s 5 per cent broken rice increased US$25 per tonne
in November, to fluctuate between $390 and $415, according to the Viet
Nam Food Association (VFA).
