At the regular press conference of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment on the morning of October 6, Mr. Tran Gia Long, Deputy Director of the Department of Planning and Finance (Ministry of Agriculture and Environment) said that agricultural exports continued to record a significant increase.

Agricultural export turnover in September is estimated at 6.35 billion USD, up 11.8% over September 2024, bringing the total agricultural export turnover in the first 9 months of 2025 to 52.31 billion USD, up 14% over the same period last year.

Of which, the export value of agricultural products reached 28.51 billion USD, up 16.8%; the export value of livestock products reached 447.5 million USD, up 18.6%; the export value of aquatic products reached 8.12 billion USD, up 12.3%; the export value of forestry products reached 13.41 billion USD, up 7.4%.

By region, Asia is the largest export market for Vietnamese agricultural products with a market share of 43.9%. The next two largest markets are the Americas and Europe with market shares of 23% and 14.2% respectively. The market shares of the two regions, Africa and Oceania, are small, accounting for 3% and 1.3% respectively.

Compared to the same period in 2024, the estimated value of Vietnam's agricultural exports in the past 9 months of 2025 to Asia increased by 4.1%; America increased by 11.4%; Europe increased by 40.6%; Africa increased by 91.6%; and Oceania increased by 6.5%.

In terms of detailed markets, the United States with a market share of 20.6%, China with a market share of 20% and Japan with a market share of 7.1% are the three largest export markets for agricultural products of Vietnam.

Compared to the same period in 2024, the estimated value of Vietnam's agricultural exports in the past 9 months of 2025 to all 3 markets increased. Specifically, the United States increased by 9%, China increased by 5.9%, and Japan increased by 23.9%.

Although the overall picture of agricultural exports has many bright spots, for some product groups, there are still certain difficulties that affect growth. For example, for the rice industry, the export volume in the past 9 months reached 7 million tons and 3.55 billion USD, up 0.1% in volume but down 18.5% in value compared to the same period in 2024. The average export price of rice in the past 9 months is estimated at 509 USD/ton, also down 18.6% compared to the same period in 2024.

Or for Vietnam's fruit and vegetable products, they are mainly exported to the Chinese market, with the export value accounting for 57.9%. However, compared to the same period in 2024, the export value of fruit and vegetable products to this market in the past 9 months decreased by 9.3%.

Speaking at the press conference, Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Environment Phung Duc Tien said that in recent months, although the agricultural sector has faced many challenges from natural disasters and epidemics, agricultural exports have maintained a high growth rate. The market structure has changed positively.

The above results were achieved thanks to the regular and close attention of the Government, the Prime Minister and the flexible management of the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment. Especially the participation of local authorities at two levels, the initiative of businesses and people...

According to Deputy Minister Phung Duc Tien, if the average export value growth rate is maintained as in the past months, agricultural exports could reach 67 billion USD by the end of 2025. In more favorable circumstances, the figure could reach more than 70 billion USD.

Deputy Minister Phung Duc Tien emphasized that no matter how difficult it is, with the attention and direction of the Government and the Prime Minister, flexible, timely, resolute management and serious implementation, the agricultural sector will reach the target of exporting agricultural products by 2025...
