The summing
up conference |
|
In 2008, although the economy experienced
complicated conditions and price of farming produce decreased, the agricultural
and rural economy maintained growth. The production value of agriculture –
forestry – fishery reached more than VND7083bil, gaining
101.11 percent of the plan, up 5.98 percent against 2007. Also, DARD in
coordination with localities successfully implemented a number of programs and
projects for agricultural and rural development such as establishment of 8
cooperatives, over 800 highly productive clubs and so on
In addition to what the department has gained, the
local agricultural sector has some shortcomings such as unequal application of
technical advance to agricultural production, slow transformation of plant and
domestic animal structure, limited application of new farming techniques and
small investment by farmers, which have restrained the agricultural potential.

application models to increase productivity and decrease input costs, support
cooperatives to develop agriculture in the direction of commodity production,
strengthen plant protection, fire control and other epidemic diseases …
