SBV has asked commercial banks to proactively balance capital sources, and promptly meet the loan needs of people and businesses producing, processing, purchasing, temporarily storing and exporting rice, especially during the winter-spring crop of 2023-24, in the Cửu Long (Mekong) Delta region.
The fourth Vietnam Rice Festival is taking place in the Mekong Delta province of Vĩnh Long, with a wide range of events designed to promote agro-economy and rice trade in domestic and foreign markets.
Minister of Industry and Trade Tran Tuan Anh said Viet Nam and the
Philippines should consider extending their rice trade deal, which will
expire at the end of this year, for a new period of 2017-2020.
