This project seeks to improve agriculture, food production and processing, quality control, and certification practices to give Vietnamese producers access to new markets, leading to increased incomes and reduced poverty. The project focuses on public health (food safety), farm incomes (product value) and trade development (sanitary/phytosanitary export requirements and harmonization of quality and grades standards). Activities relate to improving practices in both food production and processing, and product quality control and certification. The project includes the establishment of analytical laboratory capacity. It involves assistance to both the private sector (through farmers, farmers associations and processors) and the public sector.
