Agriculture Seminar

Overview

Bavihomestead

Originating from the cradle of wet-rice civilization, Vietnamese agriculture has achieved a remarkable transformation—from a food-deficient nation to a leading global exporter of rice, coffee, and seafood, consistently serving as a solid pillar of the national economy. However, the new era brings unprecedented challenges: the destructive impacts of climate change, resource depletion, and stringent “green” standards imposed by international markets. The future demands an urgent transformation from a “production-oriented mindset” to a high-tech, sustainable “economic mindset.”.

Topics

Organic Agriculture: An in-depth session on the principles of organic farming, including the management of soil, water, and pests through biological methods. Experts will analyze the differences between “VietGAP,” “Organic,” and conventional food, while also outlining startup opportunities in the rapidly growing clean agricultural sector today.

Vietnamese Agricultural Processing: An update on the latest data on Vietnam’s agricultural markets. An analysis of bottlenecks in post-harvest preservation and technology. An introduction to advanced processing models that transform raw agricultural products into high-value commercial goods (OCOP), expanding pathways to international markets.

Agricultural Tourism: Agricultural tourism is not merely about growing vegetables or raising chickens. This seminar provides strategic thinking on landscape planning, developing experiential tourism products, and telling local cultural stories.

Climate Change & Smart Agriculture: An analysis of extreme weather phenomena (saltwater intrusion, drought, severe cold spells) that directly affect agricultural production. Experts will introduce adaptive farming models under Climate-Smart Agriculture, the application of IoT in environmental monitoring, and trends toward Net Zero agriculture.
