TRA VINH (Biz Hub) — The Mekong Delta province of Tra Vinh's Department of Science and Technology yesterday granted VietGAP certificates for mangosteen products from Tan Thanh Cooperative and mandarin orange products of Thuan Phu Cooperative.

The certificates could help the cooperatives to expand their market reach by ensuring output and raising earnings for farmers.

There are 130 hectares of mangosteen in the province with the average production of 1,000-1,300 tonnes per year and 306 hectares of mandarin orange with the average production of 2,200-2,500 tonnes per year. — VNS
