(HBO) – The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Hoa Binh and the National Agricultural Extension Centre (NAEC) on October 29 held a seminar on promoting sales of farm produce of the province in COVID-19 period.
At the event.
Despite difficulties triggered by COVID-19, agricultural
production of the province has remained stable since the start of this year.
Foodstuff like rice, meat and seafood meet
people’s demand and food supply has not been disrupted. Harvest time for
various agricultural products with large yield will arrive in the coming
months, while complex developments of COVID-19 may hinder sales of farm
produce.
The seminar was to realise the twin targets of
curbing COVID-19 and promoting socio-economic development. It also helped
firms, cooperatives and farmers promote their products, link with businesses,
supermarket chains and food shops in Hanoi and other localities nationwide, and
avoid a disruption of the supply chain due to the pandemic.
At the event, participants shared information on
potential, strengths and scale of cultivation areas and demand for sales, along
with cooperation and consumption market development between units and
households.
They discussed and gathered opinions on
solutions to remove bottlenecks in production and sales of farm produce in the
remaining time of the year.
Many underlined obstacles facing cooperatives
and groups in sales of farm produce, particularly amid COVID-19.
Representatives of production units hoped to
receive support for prompt and efficient sales of farm produce. They pledged
that all products are grown under VietGAP standard and some of them recognised
as the province’s OCOP goods. Participants also received guidance to put their
farm produce on sale at the Postmart.vn e-commerce market.
At the end of the seminar, leaders of the provincial
Department of Agriculture and Rural Development affirmed that the department
will create favourable conditions for firms and investors seek chances for
long-term cooperation.
In addition, it will support cooperatives and
units to better agricultural production processes, especially high technology
and organic ones, in a bid to improve quality and offer safe products to
consumers./.

Red grapefruit is a native crop of Tan Lac district, where the fertile soil and favourable climate create ideal conditions for its growth. With over 80% of the area being mountainous, at an altitude of 300-400 metres above sea level, red grapefruits here thrive on well-drained, fertile hillside soil. The region’s large temperature variation between day and night enhances the fruit's nutrient absorption. The local cultivation techniques also contribute to its uniqueness
