Thanh Hóa's agriculture growth hit record high in 2023

HÀ NỘI — The agricultural sector in the central province of Thanh Hóa recorded a growth rate of 4.16 per cent in 2023, a record high over the past few years, according to the provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development. The agricultural sector continued to contribute to the overall economic growth and development of the province. State departments, local authorities, and businesses have effectively played their roles in advising and implementing policies to promote the link between agricultural production and consumption, building supply and demand chains for agricultural products, developing markets, and promoting the province's agricultural products. The province's agricultural sector strives for a growth rate of at least 3 per cent in 2024. Conducting a comprehensive review of food production facilities and organising centralised production for key local products should be also included.
