Initiatives to boost sales of Vietnamese agricultural products

Photo: Trong Tung In addition to suffering the impact of the pandemic in recent times, the heavy dependence on traders has led to sales stagnation of farm produce in many localities, including Hanoi’s Me Linh district with its vegetable, Binh Thuan province with dragon fruit and Long An province with watermelon. There are movements of rescuing farm produce from sales stagnation among city dwellers every year. According to Dr. The Anh, world experience has shown that diversifying consumption channels would be a way out for sales stagnation for farmers. “They don’t depend on one channel to avoid disruptions. For example, besides exporting and farming cooperatives should sell their products to domestic distribution channels to minimize market risk,” he said. In Japan, agricultural cooperatives never sell to a single customer but to supermarkets, restaurants and other channels to ensure consumption of agricultural products. Besides, they invest in warehouses to preserve farm produce and diversify agricultural processing technologies for vegetables to last longer as they are perishable, The Anh added. In recent years, the VASS has assisted the Duc Chinh Cooperative in northern province of Hai Duong in applying technology to preserve agricultural products for up to six months, meeting export market standards, thus helping farmers minimize crop losses. In order to improve sale of agricultural products, local production units must have …
