processing enterprises nationwide.

cooperatives from across Vietnam
to introduce their scientific and technological achievements. Additionally,
companies, cooperatives and farmers can also learn experience and access the
latest technologies and equipment for agro-forestry-fishery production and
processing at the events.

Department of Agriculture and Rural Development Vuong Dac Hung said to be
displayed at the festival and fair, all products have to pass strict
examination and have clear origin, so consumers can put their trust in them.
