In addition to efforts to create quality agricultural products, it is time for businesses and production households to shake hands to find stable output for local agricultural products, especially after Post-Covid-19.

Diverse and quality products
According to Mr. To Van Dat, Vice Chairman of Phu Giao District People's Committee, over the past time, thanks to the attention of the province, the departments and branches, as well as the leadership and direction of the District People's Committee, Phu Giao's agriculture has made a shift. translate production structure towards high technology efficiency. Agricultural production situation develops stably, crop structure is diversified. High-tech applied agriculture is developed in the form of farms towards VietGAP, towards organic production. The total area of fruit trees as of the beginning of 2020 will be over 1,266 hectares, mainly of oranges, tangerines, grapefruit, lemons and some other citrus fruits.
In addition, in Phu Giao district, farmers also grow a variety of fruit trees such as mango, durian, avocado, guava, especially melon grown under technology lines controlled from input to output of the produce. Products. At the same time, Phu Giao is able to provide a number of products for cattle, poultry and some other consumer foods such as cranberry pepper and bamboo shoots grown under the farm production chain. . The approach of local science and technology is always developing. Over the years, all levels and sectors have had many incentive policies to encourage farms to apply advanced scientific and technical measures, and handle off-season fruits with clean technologies, which have helped the farm owners, Farmer farming is more convenient.
However, the biggest difficulty right now is the lack of sustainable output. This issue needs to be viewed objectively from both sides so that local agricultural products have stable outputs. First of all, on the production side, it is necessary to understand the market demand, production associated with consumer health and social responsibility. On the supermarket side, the wholesale market needs to have an "openness" to local agricultural products to have goodwill cooperation towards promoting development.
Create favorable conditions
At the conference on supply and demand of agricultural products in the area organized by the People's Committee of Phu Giao district in collaboration with the Department of Industry and Trade, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, representatives of the two departments presented the standards to apply scientific and technical advances in planting and tending citrus fruits. At the same time introduce distribution enterprises to make the supply and demand connection.
Representatives of supermarkets in the province have presented in detail the requirements for product distribution and exchange, sharing ways of purchasing agricultural products with owners of farms and farmers in the area to implement and currently connecting supply and demand in the near future. However, the real issue now is "goodwill" in building the supply chain
According to Mr. Nguyen Hong Quyet, Director of Kim Long Melon Cooperative, the Kim Long melon product is available in the national market, but the road to local supermarkets and wholesale markets is still very difficult. Mr. Quyet shared, with manufacturing enterprises in the field of agriculture, linking products for consumption in supermarkets is not easy. Most units actively seek for different channels or "create" their own sales and distribution facilities.
Sharing this view, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Kien, Director of Thanh Kien Guava Cooperative, also said that the main reason given by cooperatives and production households is that importing agricultural products into supermarkets requires a lot of legal procedures and documents that take time. In addition, the purchasing volume of supermarkets is not much, the price is dominated by many types of fees, taxes ... so the economic value is not as expected, the people themselves also arise a "shy" mentality to search for and link product consumption with supermarkets.
According to the reporters, what businesses and households are most afraid of is importing agricultural products into supermarkets, apart from paying a variety of fees and discounts higher than 10% of the product value. some supermarkets sell only in the form of goods consignment, one-time payment by month or quarter ... Meanwhile, most enterprises, agricultural production units of the province are small, super Small, so the late payment, accrue invoices will be difficult to promote production and business. However, this is just a difficult problem, not a solution if we work together. Mr. To Van Dat hopes that local agricultural products will be supported to create a brand for local products to ensure efficiency for production, contributing to the local economy for better development in the future.
