Shared vision for sustainable agricultural development

With the participation of more than 80 delegates from businesses, industry associations, research institutes, universities and leading experts from Vietnam and Australia, the Conference marked an important step forward in the journey of promoting high-tech agricultural cooperation between the two countries. AgriS plays a key role in connecting and promoting cooperation initiatives between the parties, especially in the field of smart and sustainable agriculture.

Queensland has long been recognized as one of the world’s leading agricultural science hubs, with its diverse climate, fertile soils and outstanding research and development capabilities. Meanwhile, Vietnam’s Tay Ninh province, as an important agricultural production hub in the South, is gradually emerging as one of the region’s high-tech agricultural hubs.

At the conference, Mr. Nguyen Minh Lam, Vice Chairman of Tay Ninh Provincial People's Committee emphasized: "Tay Ninh wishes to learn from Australia's advanced agriculture experience, especially in the fields of water resource management, modern farming technology and sustainable development strategy. Our goal is to develop a green, smart and circular agricultural model, bringing added value to agricultural products and improving people's lives".
