Vietnam agricultural production and export trends

Overview

Vietnam has demonstrated significant strength in the agricultural sector, both in terms of production value and export capacity.

In the first half of 2026, Vietnam saw a major surge in fertilizer exports, with volume increasing by 52% and value rising by 108% compared to the previous year. During this period, Vietnam surpassed China to become the top fertilizer supplier to Cambodia, which imported approximately 331,000 tonnes valued at US$146 million. While exports to Japan and Taiwan saw declines, the ASEAN region remained a primary market for Vietnamese fertilizer.

Broadly, data from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations indicates that Vietnam ranks 16th globally and 6th in Asia in agricultural production value. In 2024, the nation's agricultural export value was recorded at $56 billion, representing roughly 1.1% of the total global agricultural output.
