Small scale farming holding back Vietnam's produce quality

Despite the US recognition of Vietnam’s Lo Ren Star-apple, the imports of the product remain modest because of the limited growing area, which is keeping back the industry in the country as they struggle to compete with large scale farming and the quality which other countries provide.

Truong Thi Ngoc Anh, Vice Chair of Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee commented that Vietnam’s fruits still cannot penetrate choosy markets because they are produced by households on a small scale, which makes it difficult to control quality.

All analysts agree that Vietnam’s agriculture is organized on a small scale, therefore, it cannot approach modern production. In order to develop agriculture in a sustainable way, Vietnam needs to re-organize production on a large scale.

According to Nguyen Do Anh Tuan, the head of the Institute for Agriculture Policies, by expanding the farmland limit and aggregating land, Vietnam will be able to organize large-scale agricultural production, which will help create high-quality products, thus paving the way for the branding of Vietnam’s farm produce.
