ACHIEVEMENTS AND ISSUES OF THE AGRO-FOOD VALUE CHAIN IN VIETNAM

Author

Abstract

Vietnam’s agricultural export has made significant progress for the last years. The growth of agricultural exports is higher than that of the same period last year, contributing to the GDP growth of the whole country. Nevertheless, the product rescue due to over-production has repeated in some localities like it happened in previous years, while the fast change in the domestic retail market was recognized. The fast changes in agro-food production in the recent years will provide the solutions for policies of restructuring agricultural sector in Vietnam. The safe production, standards-based safety, traceability, and value chain participation are indispensable for all producers across channels of farm product consumption. The application of information technology in the agro-food value chain is a future trend with plenty of potential to exploit.
