Fruit-vegetable sector targets 10 billion USD in exports by 2030

Vietnam’s fruit and vegetable industry has set a target of achieving 10 billion USD in export value by 2030, according to the Vietnam Fruit and Vegetables Association.

Vietnam’s fruit and vegetables have now been exported to over 80 countries and regions worldwide, with China, the US, the Republic of Korea, Japan, Thailand, the Netherlands, and Australia being among key markets.

Regarding export prospects, the Vietnam Fruit and Vegetables Association said that according to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organisation, the world population would continue to grow and would reach 9-10 billion by 2030, while incomes would also be constantly increasing. This would push up demand for fruits and vegetables, providing substantial room for Vietnam's fruit and vegetable industry to further boost exports in the years ahead.

Therefore, to realise the export target of 10 billion USD by 2030, the sector would strengthen the application of standardised practices in farming and advanced technologies in production and processing to create products that meet the requirements of the markets./.
