Vietnam exported 390 million USD worth of fruits and vegetables in April, representing a month-on-month rise of 7.9 percent, but down 15.6 percent against the same period last year.
The Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT) has proposed Japan’s Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF) to consider special and creative solutions solving difficulties for Vietnam’s export of fresh lychees to Japan.
