The global playing field requires not only businesses but also farmers need to change their thinking about farming, production, goods quality …
Participating in the global playground of elements in the agricultural value chain is not only for businesses but also farmers need to innovate their thinking about changing farming methods, linking the application of technological advances towards production. export large goods, improve product quality to meet the requirements of consumers and export markets.
Not only bravely reorganizing production, innovating farming methods to apply technology to production, participating in global agricultural playgrounds, farmers are also aware of the need to strengthen links to be able to apply tissue. New production model, improving product quality to meet consumer needs and meet the rigorous standards of export markets.
Currently, the model of growing carrots and sugar beets using Japanese and Korean automatic technology of Mr. Nguyen Van Linh, in Gia Binh district, Bac Ninh province, annually brings about VND 9 billion in revenue, creating jobs. for 50 regular employees with an income of 5 million VND / person / month and about 150 seasonal workers with an income of 150,000 – 200,000 VND / person / day.
Mr. Nguyen Van Linh shared, applying scientific and technical advances to production, everyone can apply but most importantly, they need to renew their thinking in the context of the current industrial revolution 4.0 to be able to participate. global playground.
“I also have to invest in Japanese machinery and study international farming practices to apply it. The introduction of science and technology at the beginning also faces difficulties, but when effective, it will facilitate production, shorten time, increase productivity.
Anyone can do it, for example, a small field, I consider it a big field, but changing the mindset will bring high efficiency, ”Mr. Minh said.
As a large-scale chicken farmer, after 8 years of building chicken farms applying technology of Thailand and the Federal Republic of Germany, Nguyen Van Cong now has a total of 5 chicken farms with about 40,000 chickens. revenue of 24 billion / year, but when it comes to the challenges that our country integrates more deeply, there are still many questions.
“The most difficult problem for farmers if small ones is small, but for those working on an industrial scale is investment. In the current integration trend, the faster the requirements in the 4.0 industrial revolution will be achieved. If you cannot do it, you must determine that you have lost your job ”, Mr. Cong said.
Vietnamese farmers and agricultural products face stiff competition in the domestic market
According to experts, participating in a large global playground of Vietnamese farmers and agricultural products not only faces the challenge of fierce competition in the domestic market, but also must meet the standards.
If it does not meet the requirements of traceability, goods labels as well as product quality, it will not only lose export opportunities but also lose the home market.
Mr. Tran Cong Thang, Director of Institute of Policy and Strategy for Agricultural and Rural Development, said: “Continuing to improve mechanisms and policies on transparency to help farmers and businesses to shape production. with the ultimate goal of consumption and export ”.
“The State is promoting the opening of markets and want to take advantage of export markets, products must meet the standards. Most important is reorganizing production with mechanisms and policies to link businesses with farmers more effectively to produce large, good quality thereby improving competitiveness, ”Mr. Thang added.
Emphasizing the role of businesses in association with farmers to bring agricultural products to the global playground, Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Ha Cong Tuan said that enterprises not only play a role participating in and leading the stages of deep processing and production to increase the value of agricultural products, but also a pioneer force with capital potential, capable of applying high technology to agricultural production, and management experience in national and international, understand the rules of the international market, which will guide, train and guide farmers to produce goods that meet international standards.
According to Mr. Ha Cong Tuan, 10 million farmer households during the renovation period, they are the “economic nucleus” development, “creative nucleus”. Those are the hard workers that make up today's agriculture.
“However, in the current open economy, individual households will not be able to access the requirements, standards and very rapid changes of the international market. Therefore, if you want to penetrate and develop stronger, you have to link, but who is that link, obviously the “leader” leading this chain must be an enterprise, “Mr. Tuan emphasized.
There is a need for policies that promote alignment in agricultural production. In other words, how to connect millions of small farmers today to be able to form a large-scale production chain, with enough “links” closely linked from production to consumption, distribution, then can integrate with confidence.
And just then, imported agricultural products will no longer be a worry for farmers as well as businesses operating in the field of agricultural products.
