Fourteen agricultural producers in the south have been granted the Vietnam Agriculture Practice (VietGAP) green label certificate, which is one level higher than the conventional VietGAP recognition.
The certificates were presented at a conference jointly held by the National Agro-Forestry-Fisheries Quality Assurance Department (NAFIQAD) and the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) in Ho Chi Minh City on January 15. The event aimed to promote the linkage between production, distribution and consumption of VietGAP green label agricultural products.
The awarded producers included three vegetable cooperatives, five pig raising farms and six chicken raising establishments.
At the conference, about 20 contracts were signed between agricultural producers winning VietGAP green label and major distributors and consumers in Ho Chi Minh City.
Compared to previous VietGAP standards, VietGAP green label sets stricter standards on the quality of products and covers the whole process from growing to processing, packaging and trading.-VNA
