FACT, a South Korean organisation for agricultural technology transfer and trade, has signed an agreement with the Mekong Delta province of Hau Giang to increase the use of biological products of South Korea for growing pineapple, pomelo and mango.

FACT will provide nearly US$17,000 worth of 20 biological products to the locality, vietnamplus.vn reports.

Lee Won Og, FACT director said in the future the organisation will work with and assist Hau Giang in personnel training, equipment and technology transfer to help the locality’s agricultural sector develop and improve incomes of farmers.

Meanwhile, Truong Canh Tuyen, vice chairman of the Hau Giang People’s Committee, said the province hoped to receive technology to produce the biological products, thus enhancing its agricultural production value and expanding ties with FACT.

In 2017, FACT ran a co-operation project with a village of Vinh Vien Commune, Long My District, under which it supplied 13 biological products and some technological equipment for rice cultivation in two crops on an area of 14ha at a cost of $9,000. — VNS
