To promote the export of vegetables and fruits

Applying hydroponic vegetable production technology to meet export quality standards of Langbiang Farm Lam Dong brand

In Lam Dong, the Langbiang Farm vegetable and fruit brand has spent more than 20 years building and developing a large domestic market and exporting on an area of ​​tens of hectares, summarizing the values ​​of innovation and digital transformation on each of its production gardens. Accordingly, Mr. Tran Huy Duong - owner of the Langbiang Farm brand shared: “To successfully transform digitally in agriculture , first of all, businesses must have a strategic mindset and vision, and establish the right investment. Next, consult with the technical and experience team of national and international digital transformation experts, ensuring a stable, complete and synchronous infrastructure in terms of database. Finally, the orientation of digital transformation needs to be continuously improved, practicing sustainable production ...”.

Notably, Langbiang Farm chose a digital technology solution that is suitable for the conditions of vegetable and fruit cultivation in the agricultural area of ​​Lac Duong district and Da Lat city with dozens of hectares. According to Mr. Duong, through testing and consideration, Langbiang Farm chose a digital transformation technology solution with reasonable costs, optimized investment, flexible adjustment, dissemination and high economic efficiency for other agricultural enterprises in the area. Specifically, Langbiang Farm uses a digital technology system in all vegetable production processes, from automatic seeding to drip irrigation nutrition management, monitoring indicators of care time, growth index, product quality transparency index for customers including GlobalGAP, VietGAP certification standards, high-tech agricultural enterprises, food safety and hygiene. And this is also a process that is continuously connected to the mechanized stage of treating loose soil, collecting by-products, and spreading lime to disinfect the soil of Langbiang Farm before planting each new crop of vegetables and fruits.

“Over time, improving and practicing digital technology according to the motto “Sow quality - Reap love”, Langbiang Farm always brings the best products to domestic and foreign customers”, Mr. Duong affirmed his commitment. Up to now, besides stabilizing large domestic market areas such as: Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Dak Lak, Hai Phong, Da Nang, Can Tho..., Langbiang Farm's large-scale vegetable and fruit products have been expanding export markets to the Netherlands, Singapore, Korea, Myanmar, Thailand...

From the results of applying digital technology and innovation at Langbiang Farm Lam Dong, looking at the whole country - according to Dr. Nguyen Nhu Thinh, Vietnam Fruit and Vegetable Research Institute - technologies for producing fresh fruits and vegetables for export need to continue to summarize the application and replication of water-saving drip irrigation processes, genetic engineering, creating new disease-resistant varieties, diagnosing plant diseases, propagating and culturing plant tissue; hydroponics, aeroponics and on substrates; preservation and processing such as continuous vacuum frying, heat pump drying, freeze drying, super-fast freezing with liquid...

Ms. Hoang Mai Van Anh - Program Coordinator, United Nations Industrial Development Organization, synthesized the data and said that in 2024, the export output of Vietnamese vegetables and fruits with the market accounting for the highest proportion with nearly 64.8% is China. The next market with more than 5% is the United States; 4.4% is South Korea; nearly 4% is Thailand; more than 2.8% is Japan. The remaining proportion is more than 19% of other countries' markets... To further diversify the export market of high-value Vietnamese vegetables and fruits, Coordinator Hoang Mai Van Anh said that it is necessary to increase the application of cultivation technology, plant protection, publish annual monitoring residues, improve the capacity to comply with product quality standards, establish a competitive export value chain, develop national quality infrastructure to support exports...

In particular, the key solution for production to promote the export of Vietnamese fruits and vegetables, Ms. Hoang Mai Van Anh emphasized: “Developing large-scale concentrated raw material areas, encouraging smart, organic, and circular agricultural production. Strengthening the application of science and technology, using high-yield, high-quality seed sources, adapting to climate change, sustainable intensive farming; ensuring food safety, reducing post-harvest losses; increasing the rate of products meeting GAP and organic safety certification standards; increasing the rate of deep processing…”.
