Viet Nam''s agricultural sector needs to move toward sustainable development along value chains of production and trade to prevent deforestation and land degradation.
Viet Nam''s agricultural sector gained strong growth in the export of many kinds of fruit to China in the first five months of 2021, despite the COVID-19 pandemic.
Trade conflicts, climate change and epidemics can also be seen as an opportunity for the sector to speed up the value chain restructuring and innovating the growth model.
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has urged Viet Nam''s agricultural sector to improve its production quality and expand markets to other countries, especially the EU, next year.
Foreign direct investment (FDI) in Viet Nam''s agricultural sector
witnessed a sharp decline in the past 15 years, according to figures
from the Foreign Investment Agency (FIA).
