Head of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD)’s Tra and Basa Fish Exports Management Department Duong Ngoc Minh said fish had become the main item on the Russian market as chicken, beef and pork exports to Russia were facing technical barriers.
The price of tra and basa fish products also rose by 0.09 USD per kg to an average of 1.71 USD per kg, Minh added.
A number of Vietnamese seafood export businesses are expected to take part in the World Food Fair in Moscow - slated for Sept. 14-17, 2010 - in a move to promote Vietnam ’s tra and basa fish aquaculture and processing, and to seek new partners in Eastern Europe .
