Participants at the press conference held to launch AgroViet 2025 in Hanoi on Tuesday |
This year’s AgroViet 2025 will showcase thousands of diverse agricultural products from both Vietnam and overseas markets, according to Nguyen Hong Viet from the Agricultural Trade Promotion Centre under the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, the event organiser.
Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday, Viet said the upcoming exhibition will highlight key export commodities, OCOP (One Commune One Product) items rated three stars or higher, organic products, rural industrial goods and regional specialties.
"More than just a platform to promote agricultural products, AgroViet 2025 will also serve as a forum for demonstrating advanced agricultural equipment, materials and technologies," Viet said.
He added that international enterprises are set to present a wide range of modern agricultural innovations, including seeders, corn shellers, milling machines, drying equipment, organic fertilisers and high-yield seeds.
Meanwhile, Vietnamese companies will showcase a wide range of products and solutions supporting agricultural production, including transplanters, inorganic, organic and biological fertilisers, veterinary and aquatic medicines, and biological vaccines.
An outdoor exhibition area will also feature over 50 booths from Chinese firms, showcasing not only agricultural products but also culinary specialties and cultural items.
Several key events will be held on the sidelines of the exhibition, including the Vietnam - China Trade Promotion Conference and a conference on strengthening agricultural, forestry and fishery trade links between Hanoi and other localities.
Despite global challenges like epidemics, conflicts and climate change, Vietnam’s agricultural sector continued to demonstrate stable growth, centre director Nguyen Minh Tien said at the press conference.
Over the past nine months, the country’s export turnover of agricultural, forestry and fishery products exceeded 52 billion USD, up around 14% compared to the same period last year. Key export items, including rice, coffee, fruit and seafood, have all maintained strong growth momentum.
Tien noted that the ongoing transition toward ecological, organic, circular and high-tech agriculture was becoming the cornerstone of Vietnam’s sustainable development strategy.
"AgroViet 2025 is not only a platform to promote and introduce agricultural products, but also a bridge connecting producers, businesses and consumers. The event aims to expand markets for Vietnamese agricultural goods, foster international cooperation and develop sustainable agricultural value chains."
"Ultimately, the fair seeks to advance green, circular agriculture that meets international environmental and sustainability standards," he said.
