At the conference, Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Cao Duc Phat attached significance to the joint efforts made by authorities at all levels, sectors, businesses and farmers in realising the agricultural restructuring plan’s targets.
In 2014, the agricultural sector saw an increase of 3.9% in production value with GDP growth rising to 3.49% from 2.64% in 2013.
The agricultural sector gained 30.86 billion USD from export, up 11.2% from 2013.
In the first half of this year, the sector’s production value increased by 2.41% from the same period last year.
By the end of July this year, 47 out of 63 provinces and cities nationwide had developed action plans on agricultural restructuring for their localities.
Addressing the conference, Deputy Prime Minister Hoang Trung Hai said the biggest achievement has been the shift in mindsets among farmers, businesses, authorities and scientists.
Farmers have focused more on enhancing product quality and productivity in their agricultural production practices to ensure their products are clean and the origins are verified.
The Deputy PM stated that agricultural restructuring plays an important role in implementing national economic restructuring.
Deputy PM Hai urged 16 localities to map out specific action plans on agricultural restructuring.
According to Deputy PM Hai, the agricultural restructuring across the country need concentrate on strong products with a focus on calling on the involvement of enterprises to accelerate the process in the integration context.
