good manufacturing practices model for the city’s key farm
produce--vegetables, pork and chicken.
An agreement to this effect signed on Nov. 23 is part of a Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA)-funded project on farm produce quality control to be carried out in 15 cities and provinces and in Vietnam over five years.
Under the agreement, the ministry and relevant ministries and branches will instruct units to implement a pilot manufacturing practices model while the committee will instruct relevant departments and branches to carry out the plan and monitor the implementation of the project.
At present, the capital city’s farmers are annually providing almost 570,000 tonnes of vegetables, more than 300,000 tonnes of pork, over 40 tonnes of seafood and more than 11,000 tonnes of milk to Hanoi and its neighbouring cities and provinces./.
