Pepper price today September 25: Maintaining the momentum, will it "break the ice" in the last month of the year?

Pepper price today September 25, 2025 in the domestic market

Pepper prices today in some provinces of the Central Highlands and Southeast did not fluctuate much, ranging from 148,000 - 150,000 VND/kg.

Specifically, Dak Lak and Ba Ria - Vung Tau have the highest prices, both at 150,000 VND/kg. In particular, pepper prices in Ba Ria - Vung Tau have not changed compared to yesterday.

Meanwhile, pepper price in Dak Nong is currently at 149,000 VND/kg, unchanged.

In Gia Lai and Binh Phuoc , pepper prices remained at 148,000 VND/kg today. Both provinces increased by 1,000 VND/kg compared to the previous day.

According to the Vietnam Pepper and Spice Association (VPSA), pepper output in 2025 in Vietnam is likely to decrease due to the impact of extreme weather such as unseasonal rains and prolonged drought, which has significantly affected the productivity of many growing areas. This, combined with high logistics and shipping costs, has contributed to keeping prices high.

This reflects pressure from tight supply, while export volumes have fallen slightly but export values remain high thanks to rising export prices. Factors such as the conversion of acreage to other crops in some countries have also indirectly supported domestic prices.

Pepper price prospects in the last months of 2025 and early 2026 are forecast to remain high, with a slight upward trend prevailing. The main reason is the decline in global supply due to extreme weather affecting production in Vietnam, India and Indonesia. Stable demand from major markets, especially during the festive season, will support prices. However, the market still has the potential risk of strong fluctuations due to factors such as weather, harvest output and international trade developments.

In the long term, studies from the Western Highlands Agriculture and Forestry Science Institute (WASI) show the potential to improve yields and reduce costs through the model of growing pepper on living poles (such as Cassia alata, Acacia leucocephala, Long Mac, and Cotton). This brings high economic efficiency, prolongs the life of the garden by 20-50%, reduces investment costs and limits the risk of drought. Sustainable, organic farming models (such as the example from farmers in Dak Lak with a yield of 1.5-2 tons/ha/year) can help stabilize supply, thereby reducing pressure on sudden price increases. If farmers invest more strongly, similar to coffee (expected output of 1.76 million tons in 2025-2026, up 6% thanks to favorable weather), Vietnamese pepper can contribute to balancing the global market.

However, experts warn that if supply surges from new models, it could put downward pressure on prices. The industry needs a suitable export strategy to protect farmers’ interests and remain competitive. Overall, the outlook is positive if sustainable farming is focused, but prices could fluctuate depending on weather and global demand.
