A project to strengthen the safe agricultural value chains in northern localities has been launched by the National Agricultural Extension Centre (NAEC) under the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
The project, at total cost of 3 million USD funded by Japan's non-refundable official development assistance (ODA), will be implemented from 2022 to 2026, covering seven northern provinces of Hanoi, Ha Nam, Hung Yen, Hai Duong, Bac Ninh, Nam Dinh and Son La.
NAEC Director Le Quoc Thanh said that the project aims to improve the quality of farm produce and ensure their food safety meeting Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) standards, thus enhancing the competitiveness of Vietnamese fruits and vegetables in the region and the world.
