Rice price today October 15: Price fluctuates little

Rice prices today, October 15, in the Mekong Delta remained almost unchanged, with slow transactions due to weak export demand and domestic consumption.

Domestic rice market stagnates

On October 15, 2025, the domestic rice market recorded no significant fluctuations. In the Mekong Delta region - the largest rice production and consumption region in the country - trading activities were slow, with low transaction volume. Many traders were still in a "wait and see" state of the market, not yet stepping up new purchases.

According to the Department of Agriculture and Environment of An Giang province, the price of raw rice of all kinds is currently stable.
