In which, Cambodia has a great advantage and has a dizzying growth compared to the same period last year. In terms of quantity alone, in April 2021, Vietnam imported nearly 420,000 tons of Cambodian raw cashews. In the first 4 months of the year, the number of raw cashew nuts imported from Cambodia increased to 836,712 tons. More than 836 000 registered members of Cambodia have more than enough money According to the General Department of Customs, in the first 4 months of the year, the number of raw cashews imported from Cambodia increased to 836,712 tons. In another development, the Phnom Penh Post (Cambodia) daily quoted a report from the Cambodian Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries dated May 12, 2021, showing another figure. Accordingly, in the first 3 months of 2021, Cambodia exported 85,687 tons of cashew nuts to Vietnam; increased by nearly 934% compared to the first quarter of 2020. If according to this data, in April alone, Cambodia exported 751,025 tons of cashews (836,712 tons minus 85,687 tons). The report of Cambodia's Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries also said that the country exported 218,981 tons of cashew nuts in 2020; an increase of 8.24% compared to 2019 (with 202,318 tons). Going back to the statistics of the General Department of Customs, Vietnam's raw cashew imports from Cambodia increased to 836,712 tons, surprising many people, including the Vietnam Cashew Association (Vinacas). According to the Vietnam Cashew Association (Vinacas), this is a record import volume ever. Before that, in the first 4 months of 2019, Vietnam only imported 152,000 tons of Cambodian raw cashews. In the first 4 months of 2020, the number of imports increased to 161,000 tons. Talking to Dan Viet, Mr. Ta Quang Huyen - Vice Chairman of Vinacas said that the data of the General Department of Customs is considered to be official. However, the import of 836,712 tons in 4 months is too high and needs further examination. And the data of Cambodia exported 85,687 tons of cashew nuts in the first 3 months of the year is too low. More than 836 000 registered members of Cambodia have more than enough money Importing raw Cambodian cashews to Vietnam through Chang Riec border gate, Tay Ninh For a long time, Vietnam has been importing raw cashew nuts from other countries for processing, including Cambodia. "I personally think, the amount of raw cashew imported from the beginning of the year to now is about 400,000-500,000 tons." Talking to the press, Vinacas General Secretary Dang Hoang Giang also said that it was really surprising that Cambodia's raw cashew imports skyrocketed compared to previous years. Therefore, Vinacas is collecting more information from its member units and working with customs to clarify the data from Cambodia. According to the Import-Export Department (Ministry of Industry and Trade), due to the complicated developments of the Covid-19 epidemic in India and Japan, exporting Cambodia's cashew nuts to the two markets above faced many difficulties. Cambodia's cashew nuts are mainly exported to Vietnam by road, so they are not affected by the shortage of empty containers. From the end of April, the cashew harvest season in key regions in the country and Cambodia has come to an end. Cambodia's cashew nuts also have the same problem as Vietnam when at the end of the season, the output gradually decreases, the quality also decreases due to heavy rain and pests. The fact that Cambodia sells a large amount of raw cashew nuts to the world like that according to the statistics of the General Department of Customs will directly affect the selling price of raw cashew nuts from countries from Africa. "The reduced price of imported raw cashew nuts will benefit processing enterprises. Depending on their financial balance and revenue, units will choose to buy domestic raw cashew nuts or imported raw cashew nuts," Mr. Huyen said.
