Accordingly, the PPC assigns the Department of Industry and Trade to coordinate with relevant departments, branches, sectors and localities to strengthen inspection and control to prevent acts of speculation and hoarding of rice products as well as the transportation and trading of rice of unknown origin.

The relevant units strengthen the review of the local paddy and rice production situation; the current status of businesses participating in the production and distribution of rice products in the area. From there, they proactively propose solutions to promote rice production and export and ensure food security; regularly update and disseminate market information so that businesses and farmers can correctly assess the situation and market developments to ensure production and business efficiency; coordinate with relevant agencies of the Ministry of Industry and Trade to research and build pilot models to bring "traders" into the value chain of the rice industry to promote its role as a bridge between people and businesses, while limiting possible risks to parties participating in the value chain.
