Companies, households and agricultural production units could be given loans to invest in agricultural machines and equipment, expand production scale, buy fertilisers or spend on irrigation, harvesting and plant protection products.
Preferential credit will be applied in the 2017-20 period.
VietABank has also offered a 1.5 trillion VND preferential loan to startups including firms in hi-tech agriculture.
With the two loan packages of 2 trillion VND, the bank is expected to share businesses’ difficulties and support the Government in promoting startup activities.

Le Xuan Vu, VietABank’s general director, said the bank had focused on developing agricultural value and technological value chains.
In addition, the bank introduced many loans with preferential interest rates over a period of several years to support businesses.
