(HBO) - Cooperation and linkage in production in association with farm produce sales plays an important role in agricultural production, helping expand production scale, promote technology application, improve management capacity, and increase the interests of participants, especially farmers.

To boost agricultural production linkages in value chains, the Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee issued Decision No.1340 dated June 5, 2018 approving a project to build and develop food-safety value chains of key agricultural products in the 2018-2020 period, with a vision to 2025 in Hoa Binh province.

To date, agricultural production in association with marketing and origin tracing has received more and more attention. The province currently has 51 supply chains of safe food and farm produce such as tea, orange, grapefruit, pork, chicken meat, goat meat, honey and fish.

Stepping up linkages in agricultural production has contributed to increasing the awareness, role and responsibility of producers, ensuring market demand-supply, and protecting consumers’ health.

However, there remain several shortcomings, including small production scale, asynchronous infrastructure, dependence on weather, instable market prices and cooperatives’ weak management capacity.

In the time to come, localities are advised to pay attention to developing the processing industry, concentrated material growing areas and marketing; and create an open mechanism to encourage competent enterprises to apply high technology in production towards cooperation and connectivity in value chains.

It is necessary to develop farm economy, promote the development of collective economy, diversify forms of production and distribution linkages, develop electronic origin tracing systems, support production and business facilities in origin tracing, and test quality before putting products to the market so as to sustainably developing production and distribution chains./.
