The agricultural industry will develop smart and green agriculture as well as adapt to climate change.

The city will this year promote the implementation of the national program on new-style rural areas and agricultural restructuring for better living standards of people in rural areas for the period 2021-25.

The city has mapped out specific solutions to ensure farm production goals, while minimizing the impact, towards sustainable development.

In the process of economic development, Vietnam must focus on enhancing the growth quality and push for economic restructuring, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has said.

The restructuring aims to cut production costs and increase income for farmers.

For next year, Hanoi targets growth of the agricultural sector by at least 3%.

Digital transformation in agriculture is a great challenge, but if achieved, it will open up many opportunities for Vietnam's agricultural sector.

Collective economy is an inevitable trend during Vietnam’s efforts for global integration, Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has said.

Cooperation between businesses and farmers plays a key role in the agriculture sector's sustainable development.

The development of hi-tech farming continues to be an inevitable trend and should be the direction going forward for Vietnam’s agricultural sector.

Vietnam should take advantage of its ability to innovate and apply technology towards good resilience and green development.

Hanoi will focus on building and developing pomelo growing areas under the standards of VietGAP, GlobalGAP to meet the local consumption and export.

In the coming time, Ung Hoa District will focus on selecting experienced and enthusiastic staffs and mobilising social resources to develop collective economy.

By 2025, the city aims to plant 200ha of pomelo varieties of Tan Lac, Dien, Tam Van and Tho Bach Ha and they will be grown in a safe way.

Vietnam’s agricultural sector continues to demonstrate its role as the supporting foundation for the whole economy in times of difficulties, stated a senior official.

Total food losses in Vietnam are estimated at 8.8 million tons or US$3.9 billion in 2018, equivalent to 2% of Vietnam’s GDP or 12% of the country's agriculture value.
