Dragon fruit exports slow amid middle east tensions

In Viet Nam, Dragon fruit prices are showing signs of slowing despite rising during Tet, leaving many farmers and cooperatives struggling to sell their produce. Besides domestic supply–demand factors, exports are also affected by global market fluctuations, particularly tensions in the Middle East.

Also, orders from other countries had slowed as maritime transport is disrupted by the conflict, raising the risk of cancellations. Amid global uncertainties, the dragon fruit sector was expected to face continued challenges, requiring farmers and businesses to adapt and seek more sustainable solutions.
