Dong Thap (VNA) - The Ministry ofAgriculture and Rural Development (MARD) expects that, by 2030, Vietnam will behome to about 140,000 ha of mango trees with output standing at 1.5 milliontonnes, earning the country 650 million USD from exports of the fruit.

The mango growing area currently stands at some 87,000ha, 48 percent of which is in the Mekong Delta.

Vietnam shipped over 180 million USD worth ofmangoes abroad last year, accounting for only 1.15 percent of the world’stotal.

China was the largest market of Vietnam, withnearly 152 million USD, or 83.9 percent of the total, followed by Russia, theUS, the Republic of Korea, the EU, Australia, and Japan, according to MARD’sAgro Processing and Market Development Authority.

To achieve the export target, Deputy Director ofMARD’s Plant Protection Department Nguyen Thi Thu Huong called on the ministryto upgrade her department’s technical centres so as to carry out studieshelping to remove technical barriers, seek new markets, and conduct pre-exportchecks.

She also recommended MARD digitalise its databaseson farming zones, processing establishments, and packaging facilities.

While localities should enhance connectivity betweencultivation areas and increase training for local staff in charge of farmingtechniques, businesses need to seriously comply with regulations from bothimporting countries and Vietnam, boost production cooperation, maintain constantmonitoring to ensure sufficient supply and quality materials, and remain updatedon export information, Huong added.

Deputy Minister Tran Thanh Nam said having 48percent of the mango growing area concentrated in the Mekong Delta isfavourable in improving quality and meeting the requirements of importingmarkets.

However, as the area meeting VietGAP andGlobalGAP standards makes up just 3.8 percent of the Mekong Delta’s mango growingarea, it is necessary to boost the adoption of these standards, he noted.

Nam also urged provinces and cities in the MekongDelta to work to improve quality in every step, from farming and harvesting topreservation, while strengthening links in mango sales.

In particular, they should identify targetmarkets and work with enterprises and cooperatives to help farmers aligncultivation practices with international standards./.
