So far, provinces and cities in Vietnam have developed 461 safe food supply chains, providing a significant amount of safe agricultural - forestry - fishery products for national consumption, according to Nguyen Thi Mai Anh, deputy director of the Hanoi Center for Investment, Trade and Tourism Promotion. In the capital city alone, 80 food safety chains have been established, from production to consumption, she added.
Pham Van Thuy, director of the Center for High-tech Agriculture (EGreen), said that the company has now implemented and successfully applied highly-active biotechnology on many crops. Thereby, it is willing to cooperate for expanding production, connecting with distributors to supply high-quality agricultural commodities to the market.
Hanoi supports farm-to-table chains
Naomichi Muroka, deputy chief representative of Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) Office in Vietnam, said that the daily demand for safe crops and commodities is on the rise, so the potential for safe farm produce in Vietnam is huge.
"For Vietnam's agriculture including that of Hanoi to meet the increasing demand of domestic and foreign markets, the country needs to improve technology application in production," said Naomichi Muroka.
Chief Technical Advisor of the JICA’s Technical Cooperation Project Team Nanakubo noted that, with the support of JICA Safe Crop, the center has built a website (nongsanantoanhanoi.gov.vn) with a view to connecting and supporting reputable production facilities and businesses to introduce safe and high-quality farm goods.
Besides, to create favorable conditions for businesses, Hanoi will support the development of chains from production to consumption, also known as farm-to-table, to control quality, enhance product value, and regulate benefits among the links in the chains.
In particular, the city’s authority will facilitate businesses to invest in processing, associating, buying goods from farmers and building hi-tech agricultural models.
