VTV.vn - Introducing high-tech applications into agriculture is the most viable way to improve the income of farmers and spur growth in the sector.

Currently, Vietnam has three hi-tech agricultural zones, with 25 hi-tech enterprises mainly focused on breeding and aquaculture being granted operation certificates. This sector has developed strongly in many localities, mainly due to big corporations.

Meanwhile, due to the lack of investment capital, cooperatives are not able to apply technology and their products are unable to qualify for export.

To solve this problem, experts believe that policies on innovation and technology transfer in agricultural production and preferential interest rates should be created.
