 cashews, … relate big country. In its economic policies,
 Vietnam is still interested farmers and development
 agriculture.

At a recent meeting on
 rice production held in the province of Can Tho (Mekong Delta)
 Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung said: “Agriculture is a
 pillar of the national economy. ” However, rising costs

 hindering the development of this sector.

One way to accelerate growth

 Doàn Nguyen Duc.

The cultivation of banana and
 high-tech tomatoes also has its adherents. The operating ten hectares of
 banana Tran Danh Thê in Ho Chi Minh City, from plants

 traditional, without phytosanitary treatments. This
 operating even provides plants with a Filipino exploitation
 specializing in the export of bananas to Europe.
