An overview of the glutinous rice price situation in the market
According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, despite a decrease in planting area by about 39.7 thousand hectares in 2021, the yield increased by nearly 1.9 tons/hectare compared to 2020. Thus, the total rice production in the country in 2021 reached over 43.86 million tons, an increase of 1.1 million tons compared to the same period last year.
From the fourth quarter of 2021 until now, the price of glutinous rice in the country has experienced many fluctuations, continuously increasing and decreasing, but the increase is relatively mild, only about 500 - 1000 VND/kg/day depending on the type, packaging, and display on the market.
With only a little over ten days left until Tet, the demand for buying glutinous rice for Tet and packages of cakes is gradually increasing, so the price fluctuations of various types of glutinous rice in the market are becoming more lively.
The specific trading prices of fresh sticky rice in warehouses in the provinces of Long An and An Giang are at the lowest level, ranging from 5,400 VND to 5,600 VND per kg. Compared to the same period last year, this price has decreased by 400 VND to 1,000 VND per kg. Given the prolonged impact of the pandemic affecting various aspects, the forecast for the price of finished glutinous rice entering the market this year is stable and may further decrease.
How much is the price of glutinous rice for Tet Lunar New Year 2022? Tips for choosing delicious glutinous rice for Tet.
During the Tet Lunar New Year 2022, glutinous rice is an essential ingredient for wrapping chung cakes, tet cakes, making sticky rice cakes, and is indispensable in every household. To make delicious Tet cakes, consumers often choose glutinous rice that is even-grained, firm, shiny, not broken, free from impurities or hair, and has a yellow color. Especially, when you take one grain to taste or lightly bite it, you will experience a mild sweetness with no strange smell. In case of loss of taste and a strange smell, be cautious and suspect if it is fake glutinous rice.
If you suspect that you have bought fake rice, you can pour the purchased rice into a long box and then insert your hand deep into the rice to feel if the rice has a faint natural fragrance. After pulling your hand up and smelling it, the smell of rice will disappear, but if your hand retains the smell for a long time before fading, then it is clear that the rice has been treated with chemicals and artificial scents. Be cautious before using it. To avoid buying fake rice, it is recommended to go directly to reputable establishments for purchase and selection.
The current market price of glutinous rice ranges from 30,000 to 50,000 VND per kg on average.
