Vietnamese farmers have applied modern science link chuẩn của w88 technology to produce fruit products, increase output, improve quality link chuẩn của w88 establish regions specialising in fruit production.

Fruit farmers in the Mekong Delta region are now producing fruit products using good agricultural practices (GAP) to meet export market requirements, the MARD said.
