(HBO) - The 2015-2020 period was a peak time for the agricultural sector of Hoa Binh province to realise its target of agricultural restructuring. Therefore, its localities have spared no efforts in enhancing value chains and farm produce consumption, helping to raise productivity, quality and agricultural product values.
Trade
and consumption promotions have helped to expand markets, boosting the
production and consumption of the province’s farm produce.
In the past five years, 93 firms and
cooperatives attended safe farm produce fairs organised in provinces and cities
around the country, which offered chances for them to seek partners and learn
from others’ experience.
The province also built an origin tracing
system to prevent fake products and support supply-demand connectivity at
hb.check.net.vn. The portal is designed to help businesses and cooperatives introduce
and promote their recognised products, and provide consumers with information
on product origin. There have been 56 facilities and 311 products introduced on
the portal.
Through trade promotion conferences, Hoa
Binh and Hanoi businesses inked 10 memoranda of understanding (MoUs) on the
consumption of agro-fishery-forestry products. Of them, the provincial
Department of Agriculture and Rural Development signed MoUs with major groups
such as Central Group Vietnam, Aeon Vietnam and the agricultural promotion
centre.
The agro-forestry product quality
management sub-department recently signed regulations on quality control and
origin tracing with its counterparts in Hanoi city, and Son La and Ha Nam
provinces. As a result, various typical farm produce of Hoa Binh have been sold
in supermarkets and malls like Big C, Hapro Mart, T Mart, Co.op Mart, Lotte and
Biggreen clean food store.
Of note, national flag carrier Vietnam
Airlines signed contracts to purchase Cao Phong orange and Viba banana to serve
on its flights./.
