Since 2016 the price has shown a decreasing trend, as shown in the chart below. The decrease was due to supply from Viet Nam increased significantly in 2016. This was possible supported by substantial increase in production from 122,000 Mt reported in 2015 to 170,000 in 2016. In 2017 production of Viet Nam is reported to have increased again. As a result the price decreased further. In addition to increased production in Viet Nam, production of pepper in Cambodia is also reportedly to increase substantially this year from 11,800 Mt in 2016 to 20,000 in 2017. In Lampung and Bangka however, significant decrease of production is recorded.
