Viet Nam to Spur Green and Organic Farming

The strategy targets to develop farming into a tech-based sector with highly competitive products to ensure food safety and national food security.

The export turnover of farm produce is expected to reach US$26 billion by the end of this decade.

The crop production value is projected to increase by 2.2-2.5 percent on average annually and the added value of processing agricultural products is expected to grow 8-10 percent on average a year.

The rate of crop product value produced under the cooperative and linkage forms is expected to reach 30-35 percent of the total value of the sector, while export turnover of crop products per hectare of farming land is expected to hit VND150-160 million (US$6,181-6,593).

The total area of rice farms will be kept stable at 3.56 million hectares with an expected output of over 35 million tons of rice.
