The 2.3 billion VND (109,000 USD) project under the form of non-refundable aid will be carried out at Hue city’s Thuy Xuan, Thuy Bieu and Huong Long wards.

With the aim of improving living standards for low-income farmers, the project will provide training courses and tours to Japan to learn about sample models, along with supporting them in agro-food distribution and marketing.

Over the years, Japan has been one of the province’s key ODA providers with the current sum reaching more than 500 million USD.
