The price of ocean tuna traded at Hon Ro Port has remained stable compared to before the Lunar New Year 2020, at VND110,000/kg. Meanwhile, some neighboring provinces are trading ocean tuna at lower prices, down VND5,000 to VND7,000/kg. Most of the boats can earn profit with such quite high output and selling price.
