The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee has issued an action plan to ensure food safety, promote processing, and develop the market for agricultural, forestry, and fishery products in 2025.
In recent years, fish farming facilities along the Da River have
prioritised product quality and food safety.
The plan aims to enhance product quality and safety, increase product value
through brand building, step up processing, build sustainable supply chains,
foster sale in the domestic market, expand export markets, and improve the
competitiveness of local agro-forestry-fishery products, thereby contributing
to a modern, efficient, and sustainable agricultural sector.
Key targets for 2025
include all relevant directions issued by the Government, ministries, and
central agencies to be promptly implemented; over 85% of the personnel in
charge of food safety, processing and market development to receive annual
professional training; 99% of producers and traders to meet food safety
requirements; all small operators to sign food safety commitments; a 10% annual
reduction in food safety violations in local production zones.
The province will
maintain the certified farming areas that already met the GAP and organic
standards, help establishments to maintain production and packaging unit codes,
and support 10 new facilities to attain certification. It will also sustain
efficient supply chains and develop 10 more while intensifying trade promotion
and boosting connectivity to increase the sale of agro-forestry-fishery
products, especially in international markets.
Six main tasks are prioritised, including timely policy implementation;
effective public communications on food safety regulations and market
development; digital transformation in quality management, processing, and
market development; increased food quality and safety, processing, and market
development; strengthened inspection and law enforcement; stronger trade
promotion in both domestic and foreign markets; and enhanced product
traceability and branding.
