In his opening remarks, VFU Chairman Thao Xuan Sung highlighted Vietnamese farmers’ efforts to produce high-quality agricultural products to meet market demands and improve their incomes.

In 2017, a central panel picked 153 products belonging to three categories, agricultural produce, processed products and agricultural supplies, to honour at this event.

Among them, 23 enterprises have seen their products honoured for four consecutive years.

At the ceremony, Deputy PM Vuong Dinh Hue, Vietnamese Fatherland Front President Tran Thanh Man and VFU Chairman Thao Xuan Sung handed certificates of honour to 53 enterprises and cooperatives.

The programme to honour typical Vietnamese agricultural products was first held in 2013, aiming to promote high-quality products and bolster the confidence in Vietnamese agricultural products.
