The economic integration process, especially into ASEAN, has brought about considerable benefits and opportunities for farmers and the agricultural sector in Vietnam and other ASEAN member countries through the expansion of export markets, free trade, investment attraction and science-technology exchanges.
During the two-day conference, jointly held by the VPDF and Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung Vietnam, participants also discussed a number of issues related to the sustainable development of agriculture, including the role of science and technology advances in the growth of goods-based agriculture, the impact of the ASEAN Economic Community on Vietnam’s agriculture sector, and green and environmentally-friendly agriculture.
