HCM City farmers to get training, experience through exchange abroad

HCM CITY — In the next three years, some 90 local farmers in HCM City will get opportunities to go abroad to learn and exchange experiences in agricultural product processing, marketing and selling. The municipal People’s Committee has approved a project to send farmers abroad for training and experience exchange in agricultural product processing, marketing, and selling in foreign markets in the 2023-25 period. They are divided into specific production groups and will go to nations with corresponding agricultural production strengths. They have to commit to participate in the city’s communication and advocacy activities in making urban agriculture modern. The project is expected to increase the added value of agricultural products via promoting agricultural production and consumption, and connecting supply and consumption.
