An Ireland-Vietnam Agriculture Conference was organised in Hanoi on September 8 under the theme “The Adoption of Agritech 4.0”.

Ireland sees great potential to provide high-quality dairy products to the Vietnamese market, especially as tariffs will be reduced to 0% on the first day of next year.

Vice Chairman of the People’s Committee of Can Tho city Duong Tan Hien has called for investment from Dutch businesses in mechanisation in agricultural production; post-harvest preservation technology as well as processing technology of agricultural and aquatic products.

VOV.VN - The 22nd Vietnam International Agriculture Trade Fair (AgroViet 2022) is scheduled to kick off on September 15 in Hanoi, according to a press conference held on September 7.

Ireland will provide high-quality dairy products for the Vietnamese market, thus creating a breakthrough in the dairy sector, Minister of State at the Irish Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Martin Heydon T.D. told a seminar in Hanoi on September 6.

The Vietnamese Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and the Dutch Embassy in Vietnam held a webinar on sustainable agriculture transformation in the Mekong Delta on September 6.

Despite numerous difficulties coming from the domestic and international situation, the agricultural sector has managed to achieve important targets, and it still persists in this year’s agro-forestry-fishery export target of US$50 billion as assigned by the Prime Minister.

Businesses, especially start-ups, are focusing more on green agriculture, and the model has produced positive results and feedback from the community.

Import-export revenue of agro-forestry-aquatic products was estimated to reach US$66.2 billion in the first eight months of 2022, up 8.7% year on year, of which export turnover hit about US$36.3 billion, a year-on-year rise of 13.1%, reported the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development.

The "Vietnam Nature-based Solutions for Adaptation in Agriculture through Private Sector Transformation” (VN-ADAPT) is expected to greatly contribute to supporting the resilience of the Mekong Delta region against the severe impacts of climate change.
