CASHEW NUT OUTPUT TO REACH 150,000 TONNES IN 2002 CROP
  
   Ho Chi Minh City, Mar. 12 (VNA) -- An estimated 150,000 tonnes of cashew nuts will be gained from this year's crop, 30,000 tonnes more than the previous crop.
   However, cashew output in nine eastern Nam Bo (the South) provinces, Viet Nam's main cashew-growing region, is low because of droughts, worms and insects.
   Prices of unprocessed cashew nuts are rising because of high prices on the world market and greater demand from cashew processing plants.--VNA
