The decrease in the Chinese market was the most significant among Vietnam’s 10 major export markets in the period.
Vietnam raked in 247.3 million USD from exports of vegetable and fruits in July, bringing the figure in the first seven months to 2.3 billion USD, a mild drop of 1.8 percent compared to the same period last year.
