Most vegetables and flowers are grown in the agricultural areas of Da Lat (including Da Lat and neighboring districts such as Don Duong, Duc Trong, Lac Duong) and Lam Ha.
According to the People's Committee of Da Lat City, the price of agricultural products in Da Lat is trending as it is now because Da Lat is still in the rainy season. Usually, the price of agricultural products will cool down about a month after the rainy season ends (around November every year).
