Hanoi municipal authorities have decided to spend 6.3 million USD on a master plan improving farm produce quality and safety, and developing biogas utilisation.
Of the amount, 5.4 million USD is funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB), and the remainder from the local budget.
The project is being carried out between 2009 and 2015, aiming at the sustainable production of vegetables and tea, generating jobs for the agriculture sector, improving farmers’ health and productivity, and developing biogas for their daily use.
It is also expected to zone off areas for organic agriculture production in five communes in the capital, build infrastructure and equip farmers with cultivation techniques.-VNA
