Despite COVID-19 impacts that caused the crackdown of the global supply chains in 2021, the agricultural sector still made a miracle with a trade surplus and a record export revenue at 48.6 billion USD, exceeding the target of 42 billion USD set by the Government for the year.
Last year, total food grain production hit nearly 44 million tonnes, meeting the demand of the domestic market and for export, proving the sector's position as a prop of the economy even during unprecedented difficult situations.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development said along with making best use of trade agreements between Vietnam and partners, the agricultural sector has focused on promoting digital transformation, considering it as a breakthrough measure to create a new motivation for agricultural growth and expansion./.
