When two credible sources give different values or facts, we record both and state the position we take, with reasons. We do not average them. This page is generated from disagreements.csv, grouped by the research stream that found each disagreement. Where an earlier draft of this project was simply wrong, the correction is listed in B. Corrections instead. The disagreements that most affect the conclusions are summarised in Unknowns. Edition 1.1 adds the disagreements found in the futures round (DG-143 onwards), grouped under "Futures 2030 to 2050"; the model-related ones are discussed in W. Balance model.
Protein economy and feed (14)
| ID | Topic | Claim A | Claim B | Position taken |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DG-001 | Aquafeed volume 2025 | 6.5 Mt (USDA Post, 1) | 3.9 to 4.8 Mt (industry via ACAP, 2); 3.3 to 3.85 Mt (capacity x utilisation, same article) | Report both. The ACAP species split is more transparent. Neither closes with NSO output at plausible FCRs. Do not use a single number. Same or related disagreement: DG-120. |
| DG-002 | Shrimp output 2025 | 1,291 kt whiteleg plus black tiger (NSO, 3) | "Nearly 800,000 tonnes" supported by 920 kt of feed (industry, 2) | Use NSO for output. Flag that feed-based and statistical estimates diverge by about 40%. |
| DG-003 | Whiteleg shrimp 2025 | 994.4 kt (NSO fisheries release) | 944.4 kt (NSO highlights page) | 994.4 kt: 9-month 719.7 + Q4 274.7 = 994.4. |
| DG-004 | Pig herd trend 2025 | +0.6% to 31.4 M (Livestock Department, 4) | Herd "fell sharply" from Q3 2025 (NSO, 5) | Unresolved. Possibly different reference dates. Cite both. |
| DG-005 | Pigs culled for ASF 2025 | 1.2 M (USDA) | 1.3 M (Livestock Department) | Report 1.2 to 1.3 M. |
| DG-006 | Share of feed raw materials imported | More than 65% (Vietnam Report 2025; VietDVM) | 85%, about 17 Mt/yr (Livestock Department 2024, via VnEconomy); 70% to 80% (review 2024) | Definitions differ (volume vs value; with or without domestic rice bran and cassava). Prefer ingredient-specific figures: corn 74%, soy protein about 99%, wheat and DDGS 100%. |
| DG-007 | Corn imports 2024 | 12.52 Mt (customs, USDA) | 10 Mt (Livestock Department feed-ingredient figure, 6) | 12.52 Mt is total imports. The lower figure is probably feed-industry-only imports. |
| DG-008 | Wheat imports 2024 | 5.5 Mt (USDA) | about 5.74 Mt (derived from customs growth rates) | Minor. Use 5.5 to 5.7 Mt. |
| DG-009 | Corn feed use | 14.4 Mt feed and residual (USDA PSD MY2024/25) | 9.2 Mt corn in industrial feed (USDA Table 2, CY2025) | Different scope (PSD includes on-farm feed and residual). Use 9.2 Mt for compound feed and 14.4 Mt for total feed use. |
| DG-010 | Soybean meal origins 2025 | Argentina 69% (our reading of the table) | Brazil 69% (first automated summary) | Argentina, pending a direct PDF check. |
| DG-011 | Population 2025 | 102.3 M (NSO) | 101.9 M (USDA) | Use NSO. Same or related disagreement: DG-125. |
| DG-012 | GDP per person 2025 | USD 5,026 (NSO) | USD 5,048 (USDA) | Use NSO. |
| DG-013 | Fisheries 2024 | 9,547 kt preliminary (NSO Feb 2025) | about 9,658 kt implied by 2025 growth rate | NSO revised 2024 upward. Use the revised figure for growth calculations. |
| DG-014 | Fishmeal pool | 350 to 450 kt (prior draft) | about 80 to 270 kt (this note) | Prior figure not supported by sourced inputs. Same or related disagreement: DG-117. |
Feed market (7)
| ID | Topic | Claim A | Claim B | Position taken |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DG-115 | Fishmeal price, Nov 2025 | UPV executive: USD 1,600/t (7) | World Bank Peru 65% CIF: USD 1,794/t (8) | Both can be right. The UPV figure is probably a lower grade or Indian origin (India supplied 49% of Vietnam's import value in 2023). Use the World Bank series as the benchmark; say which grade when quoting. Same or related disagreement: DG-084, DG-116, DG-126, DG-127. |
| DG-116 | Latest fishmeal price | Wave 1: USD 1,837/t (Mar 2026) (9) | Pink Sheet: USD 2,500/t (Aug 2026) (10) | Not a conflict; wave 1 is superseded. Use August 2026 as latest and the 2025 average as the base case. Same or related disagreement: DG-084, DG-115, DG-126, DG-127. |
| DG-117 | Displaceable pool | Prior drafts: 350 to 450 kt | Macro: 80 to 270 kt; this note: 79 to 290 kt sourced, 116 to 244 kt central | Use 120 to 245 kt as central. 350 to 450 kt requires unsourced snakehead and marine rates. Same or related disagreement: DG-014. |
| DG-118 | Shrimp fishmeal inclusion | 6% projected for 2025 (Salin et al. via 11) | 20% to 25% in recent Chinese trial control diets (12, 13) | Both are indirect. Projection is not measurement; trial controls are not market surveys. Central 10% to 20%. One call to a Vietnamese shrimp feed mill would settle it. |
| DG-119 | Vietnam fishmeal tonnage | WITS: 139 kt imported, 227 kt exported (2023) | Uniform unit values imply imputation | Quote values, not tonnes. Same or related disagreement: DG-089. |
| DG-120 | Aquafeed volume | USDA 6.5 Mt (2025) | Industry 3.9 to 4.8 Mt (2) | Unresolved (macro agent's position stands). The pool uses industry species volumes. Same or related disagreement: DG-001. |
| DG-121 | Feed share of cost | Shrimp: 50% to 60% (14, 2026) | Pangasius: 70% to 90% (15, 2007 to 2011 studies) | Different species and years; not a conflict. Pangasius figure is dated. |
Feedstocks (13)
| ID | Topic | Claim A | Claim B | Position taken |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DG-015 | Starch factory count | ~100 industrial (MOIT, 2021; 16) | ~120 in 27 provinces (ACC, 2023; 17); 150+ (VCA, Oct 2025; 18) | Unresolved. Likely different size thresholds and new builds. Use "120 to 150" and cite both. |
| DG-016 | Cassava pulp volume | ~4 Mt/yr; 10 to 15% of roots "= 3.8 to 5.4 Mt" (19). That arithmetic implies 38 to 54 Mt roots, so it is internally wrong | 1.7 to 2.1 Mt wet (prior draft, uncited) | Ours: ~6.2 Mt wet (range 4 to 8), about 1.3 Mt DM, 2025, from the Thai material balance. The 1.7 to 2.1 Mt figure is rejected as too low for wet pulp. |
| DG-017 | Pulp ratio per t roots | 10 to 15% (20); 20 to 30% (21) | 40 to 60% wet (16, 22); 57% wet (23/06) | Different moisture bases. Adopt 0.57 t wet (80% moisture) or 0.12 t DM per t roots. |
| DG-018 | Pulp protein | 0.2% (22, wet basis) | 1.5 to 2.6% DM (20, 24, 21) | Consistent once moisture is accounted for. Use DM figures. |
| DG-019 | Cassava chip exports 2025 | 967,460 t in 10 months (25) | 955,670 t in 11 months (26) | Cannot both be chips-only. Probably different product definitions (all raw cassava vs dried chips). Not averaged. Use 26 for chips, flag. |
| DG-020 | Cassava area/output | 499,100 ha, 10.24 Mt (2025; 26) | ~517,000 ha, ~10.5 Mt (27, published Aug 2026) | 27 repeats 2024 figures. Use 26 for 2025. |
| DG-021 | Ethanol plants | "6 ethanol plants" (27) | 3 operating, 830 m3/day (28) | Both true: 6 built, 3 operating in mid-2026. |
| DG-022 | Paddy | 43.5 Mt (NSO, CY2025) | 42.96 Mt (USDA MY2024/25); prior draft 43.12 Mt | Different periods. Use NSO for calendar 2025. |
| DG-023 | Maize | 4.4 Mt (NSO, 2025) | 4.1 Mt (USDA, MY2025/26) | Different periods and methods. Show both. |
| DG-024 | Rice bran volume | ~4.35 Mt (derived, 10%) | ~5 Mt (29, claim) | Use derived 4.35 Mt. It is consistent with USDA use plus exports of about 4 Mt. |
| DG-025 | Bran + broken in feed | 730 kt (prior draft, citing an earlier USDA report) | 2.8 Mt local supply CY2025 (USDA VM2026-0012) | Use the current USDA table. The 730 kt figure is probably a different table (imports) or outdated. |
| DG-026 | BSG price | 6,000 to 6,500 VND/kg fresh (30) | Dry rice bran 7,300 to 7,650 VND/kg (31) | The BSG quote is implausibly high per kg of DM. Treat as retail and Low. |
| DG-027 | Molasses ethanol at QNS | 60 M L/yr, target 2026 (32, 2024) | An Khe ethanol plant 200 m3/day, Q1 2028 (28, 2026) | Probably the same project, delayed. Use the 2026 government source. |
Industrial capacity (9)
| ID | Topic | Claim A | Claim B | Position taken |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DG-028 | Fuel ethanol total capacity | About 600,000 m3/yr, 6 plants (prior lead) | 450,000 m3/yr (33, September 2025); 41,000 m3/month, about 492,000/yr (34, March 2026); 480,000 m3/yr with 7 plants (35, July 2026) | Use 450,000 to 490,000 m3/yr. The 600,000 figure probably assumed 6 plants of 100 million L each, but actual nameplates range from 72 to 125 million L and some are much smaller. |
| DG-029 | E10 start date | Nationwide from 1 January 2026 (33) | From 1 June 2026 under Circular 50/2025/TT-BCT (36) | Not in this agent's scope. Passed to the regulation agent. The later source cites a specific circular, so it is more likely right. Same or related disagreement: DG-122. |
| DG-030 | C.P. Vietnam plant count | 9 plants (37, 2023) | 21 plants (38, 2026) | Both may be right on different bases (feed mills only vs all facilities). Record both. Verify with C.P. |
| DG-031 | Vinasoy market share | About 80% of soy milk (company, 2025, 39) | 84.2% (2017, 40); over 90% of boxed soy milk (2022, 41) | Segment definitions differ. Use "about 80% of soy milk" as the conservative figure. Same or related disagreement: DG-041. |
| DG-032 | VNVC plant investment | VND 2,000 bn (42, May 2025) | VND 2,500 bn (43, July 2026) | Probably a revised budget. Use the later figure with its date. |
| DG-033 | Daesang plant locations | Bac Giang MSG plant, Thai Nguyen starch (44, Korean press) | Viet Tri (Phu Tho) MSG plant, Tay Ninh starch (45, Daesang Vietnam) | Trust the company page. The Korean press translation is garbled, so its 35,000 t/yr figure is also Low confidence. |
| DG-034 | Dong Nai status | Vedan website gives addresses as "Dong Nai City" (46) | Wikipedia snapshot: Dong Nai remains a province after merging with Binh Phuoc (47) | We use "Dong Nai". The status should be checked by the regulation or ecosystem agent. |
| DG-035 | Carlsberg Phu Bai investment | VND 3,406 bn, about USD 169 million (48) | About USD 90 million (49) | Different scopes or phases. Capacity (600 million L/yr) agrees across both. |
| DG-036 | De Heus and CJ feed | De Heus has 17 plants from buying CJ Feed & Care in early 2026 (38) | No second source | Unverified. Low confidence. Ask De Heus or CJ. Same or related disagreement: DG-129. |
Companies and ecosystem (9)
| ID | Topic | Claim A | Claim B | Position taken |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DG-037 | Entobel funding | USD 33 m Series B (company PR, 2023; 50, 51) | Series B USD 30 m (Mekong USD 25 m + Dragon USD 5 m) plus IFC USD 2.5 m = USD 32.5 m project cost (IFC disclosure; 52) | Use IFC's breakdown (primary DFI document). "USD 33 m" is rounded and includes IFC. Prior lead "about USD 36 m" not supported. One trade article's "about USD 10 m from IFC" is wrong (53 paraphrase). Same or related disagreement: DG-062, DG-063. |
| DG-038 | Entobel capacity | "12x since 2022" (54) | 1,000 + 10,000 = 11,000 t/yr design (52) | Consistent within rounding. All are design capacity, not output. |
| DG-039 | Cricket One volume | More than 100 million crickets/month (2020) | About 100 t fresh/month at full capacity (Feb 2023); about 150 t live/month (Oct 2024); 1,000 t/yr processing (Oct 2023) | Units differ and all are company claims. Use "1,000 t/yr processing capacity (2023, claimed)" as the scale anchor. |
| DG-040 | Vinh Hao spirulina area | 5,000 m2 (prior lead) | More than 12,000 m2 (company page, undated) | Prefer the company figure as more recent, but it is unaudited. Output figure (17 t/yr) is from 2013. |
| DG-041 | Vinasoy share | 82.7% (Dec 2014, 55) | About 80% (2024, 56) | Not a conflict: stable share over time. Both company-sourced. Same or related disagreement: DG-031. |
| DG-042 | Bewina | Imports Taiwan and US brands, founder Ho Thanh Nhien (57) | Sells "Romania" products (58) | Possibly both (the Romanian brand Verdino plus others). Low confidence. |
| DG-043 | Market size | About VND 1,000 bn (2022, 57, 58) | USD 500 m "within several years" (59); USD 500 m by 2025 (60) | Reject both for decisions: no traceable method. |
| DG-044 | "Xuan Hong" | Industrial do chay maker (prior lead) | Cassava starch processor, Tay Ninh (61) | The lead is probably wrong; another Xuan Hong may exist but was not found. |
| DG-045 | TH true NUT as plant-based | Sold in the plant-milk aisle | Contains fresh cow's milk (62, 63) | Classify as hybrid. |
Company verification (6)

|---|---|---|---|---|
| DG-128 | De Heus Vinh Long marine mill capacity | 84,000 t/yr (wave-1 trade press) | 168,000 t/yr (De Heus global release, 22 Jul 2026; 64) | Use 168,000 t/yr as the company-stated design capacity. 84,000 may be phase 1. Unresolved. |
| DG-129 | CJ deal scope | "De Heus has 17 plants from CJ" (wave 1, implied Vietnam) | 17 mills across five countries (65, 66) | Claim B. Vietnam mill count unknown. Same or related disagreement: DG-036. |
| DG-130 | Vedan GA capacity | 36,000 t/yr (1995; used in wave 1) | 180,000 t/yr (2004; 67) | Claim B is the later nameplate. Neither is confirmed current. |
| DG-131 | VISSAN founding year | 1970 (company homepage, 68) | 1974 (Vietstock, 69) | Not material. Keep the company figure. |
| DG-132 | De Heus in Vietnam | "Since 2009" (66) | "18+ years" (70, 2026, i.e. about 2008) | Rounding. Not material. |
| DG-133 | Pham Gia Phat registration | Brand founded late 2014; tax code 0312857463 fits a 2014 HCMC registration | Page states 28 May 2019 | The 2019 date is probably a change of registration. Low. |
Retail audit and formulation (14)
| ID | Topic | Claim A | Claim B | Position taken |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DG-090 | CJ acquisition of Cầu Tre | Collector notes: CJ bought Cầu Tre in 2006 (71) | Analyst recollection: CJ CheilJedang took a majority stake in 2016 | Unresolved. Lean to 2016 (Low). Not verified this wave; web search budget exhausted. |
| DG-091 | Ông Chà Và / NOSA canned soy meat origin | Nha Trang OSINT: made in China, imported (71) | HCMC log row: Vietnam (local) (71) | Unresolved. Brand owner may be Vietnamese with contract manufacture in China. Check "Xuất xứ" on the can. |
| DG-092 | 137 Degrees origin | Nha Trang rows: Vietnam (local) | HCMC rows: imported; brand site is Simple Foods (believed Thailand) (72) | Imported (Thailand), Medium-Low. |
| DG-093 | Veyo ownership | One log row: Nutifood | QNS site lists VEYO as its nut-milk brand (73) | Vinasoy/QNS, High. |
| DG-094 | An Nhiên dried-slice prices | Field log online reference: VND 49,000/150 g | AEON eShop 23 Sep 2026: VND 60,000 to 65,000/150 g (74) | Both recorded. Calculations use the field value; with AEON prices, price per 100 g protein is 22 to 33% higher (still the cheapest non-tofu protein). |
| DG-095 | An Nhiên gà viên chay recipe | Label: soy protein concentrate, from Serbia (71) | Retailer listing: SPI, corn starch, wheat fiber, soybean oil (75) | Prefer the photographed label; listing may be an older or different recipe. |
| DG-096 | Vissan bò nấu đậu chay | Nha Trang (brand site): vegan beef slices 55%, white beans 17% | HCMC label photo: slices 30%, beans 20% | Prefer the HCMC label (primary, current). Possible reformulation. |
| DG-097 | Cầu Tre chả giò bánh rế chay đặc biệt | Nha Trang listing: contains tàu hũ ky | CJ site 2026: mung bean only, no tofu skin (76) | Prefer CJ site as current; possible reformulation away from soy. |
| DG-098 | HS 2106.10 China to Vietnam, 2023 tonnage | Vietnam-reported 1,551 t (77) | China-reported 7,957 t (78) | China figure. Vietnam-side quantities are imputed (uniform unit value). Values agree more closely (USD 9.1 million vs 12.6 million). Same or related disagreement: DG-075. |
| DG-099 | Wheat gluten imports 2023 | Vietnam-reported 12,337 t total, 7,314 t from China (79) | China-reported 10,338 t to Vietnam (80) | China figure for China tonnage; total imports are probably above 12,000 t. |
| DG-100 | Soybean imports | Prior lead: about 3.2 Mt | USDA GAIN VM2025-0011: 2.5 Mt MY2024/25, 2.8 Mt MY2025/26 (81) | Not averaged. Different marketing years and report editions; GAIN VM2025-0011 used here. Macro agent should reconcile. |
| DG-101 | Thoại An đậu hũ hải sản chay 500 g price | Co.opmart Nha Trang: VND 71,500 | Co.opmart Nguyễn Kiệm: VND 43,700 | One read is probably wrong; the HCMC tag is a clear read. |
| DG-102 | Same-SKU price spread across stores | bibigo Healthy Mandu Chay 300 g: VND 43,000 (promotion) to 56,700; Vissan chả giò chay: VND 44,900 to 60,000 | n/a | Real price variation plus low-confidence reads. Do not use single-store prices as market prices. |
| DG-103 | Chay cheaper than meat | Field notes: 17 to 38% cheaper | This analysis: only the Vissan pair (-38%) is high confidence; others -52% to +19% on low-confidence reads | Directionally supported for spring rolls; not established across categories. |
Regulation (14)
| ID | Topic | Claim A | Claim B | Position taken |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DG-046 | Status of Decree 15/2018 | thuvienphapluat compendium page lists it as "expired 16/4/2026" (82, via extraction) | Resolution 15/2026/NQ-CP says Decree 15/2018 "continues to have effect" until the new law and decree (83, government press) | Decree 15/2018 applies. Government resolution text beats a database status tag. |
| DG-047 | Status of Resolution 66.13/2026 | thuvienphapluat page extraction: "in effect" until replaced, no later than 28 Feb 2027 (84) | Resolution 15/2026 suspends it with Decree 46/2026 (83; Nhân Dân headline) | Suspended. |
| DG-048 | Decree 46/2026: replace or amend Decree 15/2018 | Several sources say "replaces" (85, 86) | thuvienphapluat title fragment says "sửa đổi" (amends) | Designed as a replacement. Moot while suspended. |
| DG-049 | GMO certificate timelines | USDA: 45 working days (5-country route) and 90 (standard) (87) | thuvienphapluat Q&A: 5 + 17 + 5 = 27 and 5 + 67 + 5 = 77 working days of agency steps (88) | Both may be right: the USDA figure likely includes the 20-day public comment. Use 27/77 for agency steps and about 45/90 end to end. |
| DG-050 | Refined GM products excluded | USDA and ISAAA: explicitly excluded (87, 89) | Decree text extraction: no explicit exclusion visible (90) | Excluded in effect, through the definition (no GM DNA or protein). Precision-fermented proteins are not excluded. |
| DG-051 | Feed trial article and duration | Prior lead: Decree 13/2020 Art 11 requires a trial; 12 to 18 months | Art 11 is factory assessment; trials are Law Art 37 and Circular 94/2025 Ch. III; agency time about 40 working days, trial length case by case | Prior lead wrong on the article. Duration undocumented; our estimate is 6 to 18 months. |
| DG-052 | Feed "5 working days" recognition | Decree 32/2026 extraction mentions 5 working days for recognition under Art 31 (91) | Art 31 of Decree 13/2020 covers livestock waste-treatment products, not feed | The 5-day figure is not a feed figure. Use Circular 94/2025 (15 + 5). |
| DG-053 | Decree 182/2024 thresholds | Prior lead: VND 12,000 bn / 20,000 bn; 3,000 bn R&D | Primary text: same, plus 1,000 bn within 3 years for R&D, and a semiconductor/AI tier | Confirmed. |
| DG-054 | Carbon inventory scope | Decree 119/2025 extraction: agriculture and food processing not in mandatory inventory | Background: inventory facility lists (Decision 13/2024/QĐ-TTg) may include some large facilities across sectors | Unresolved. Pilot quotas are clearly limited to power, steel and cement. |
| DG-055 | ISAAA authority name | ISAAA says MARD handles notifications | MARD no longer exists; MAE since 1 Mar 2025 | MAE. |
| DG-111 | Who issues the closed-production GMO certificate | Decree 43/2026 Art 37a: MAE issues, re-issues, revokes (92) | Decision 375/QĐ-BNNMT extract places the procedure in a provincial-level section (93) | MAE, per the decree. The listing may reflect delegation or an extraction error. Ask MAE |
| DG-112 | Aquafeed trial trigger | Fisheries Law Art 35(1): trial for any raw material not on the list (94) | Appendix II lists no raw materials at all, yet conventional feeds are sold without trials (95) | The law is literally broader than practice. Unresolved; treat as a risk for new ingredients |
| DG-113 | Draft law product declaration | Wave 1: MOH 2025 submission proposed three risk tiers (low, medium, high) (96) | July 2026 press describes two groups: register or declare applied standard, and no declaration (97, 98) | The July 2026 description is later and is used here. The tiers may survive inside the "declare" group |
| DG-114 | Soybean meal MFN before March 2025 | Extract: "1 to 2%" for 2304.00.29 (99) | Wave 1 prior leads did not give a rate | Minor. The 2025 rate of 0% is what matters |
Research and talent (11)

| DG-056 | Vietnamese studies on RNA reduction, mycotoxin testing and amino-acid digestibility | Prior drafts (100): "No Vietnamese study has reported RNA reduction protocols, mycotoxin testing or amino acid digestibility" | HUST 2018 nucleic acid reduction in spent-yeast hydrolysate (101); aflatoxin in 38 tương samples, 2025 (102); in vitro digestibility of rice DDG protein 77.1%, 2025 (103) | Prior claim is too strong. Correct version: such methods exist in Vietnam for yeast, traditional soy and rice DDG, but not for any novel fungal or bacterial biomass, and no DIAAS/PDCAAS study was found |
| DG-057 | Number of Vietnamese fishmeal-replacement papers (Scite affiliation filter vs term search) | Scite affiliation filter: 3 Vietnamese fishmeal-replacement papers | Term search: at least 10 Vietnamese fishmeal/SBM replacement papers | Use the higher, manually screened count, and label all counts as lower bounds. The affiliation metadata is incomplete Same or related disagreement: DG-140. |
