New Zealand Ambassador to Vietnam Tredene Dobson paid a visit to the south-central province of Binh Dinh on June 6, during which she highly spoke of the outcomes of New Zealand-funded projects in the province.
Farmers in Son La province have benefited from an Australian project to produce safe vegetable. Thanks to this, many ethnic families have escaped from poverty and earned a good income.
As many as 294 out of the 386 communes in Hanoi, or 76.16 percent, have been recognised as new-style rural areas, said the municipal steering board of the programme on agriculture development and new-style rural area construction for 2016-2020.
Automation and mechanisation in rice and vegetable production in the Mekong Delta is expected to sharply reduce losses and increase value, the Agriculture and Rural Development Ministry has said.
Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc showed his backing of Hai Duong province’s scheme to build large-scale safe vegetable production models with the application of high technology.
A New Zealand funded project to produce safe vegetables is underway in an area of nearly 4,000 hectares covering four districts in the central province of Binh Dinh.
