What “in research” means
A product is listed before it has a guide when our search research shows people want to know about its Vietnamese origin, but we have not yet assembled sourced facts strong enough to publish. We would rather leave a gap than fill it with a plausible number.
- Black pepper — spices; still needed: Primary export and production data; Growing regions; Processing of black and white pepper.
- Rice — grains; still needed: Fragrant varieties and their breeders (ST24, ST25); Growing regions; Export data.
