Like many businesses in the agricultural sector, ThaiBinh Seed previously relied on manual methods for seed selection and breeding, which was time-consuming, labor-intensive, and difficult to control genetic variations. Since applying scientific and technological advancements, including biotechnology, to seed breeding, the company has significantly reduced the time required and is able to focus its seed selection efforts on specific goals. Ms. Tran Thi Tiec, Deputy Director and Head of the Rice Research Department at the Plant Research Institute of the company, shared: “We are a pioneer in applying biotechnology to gene identification, especially resistance genes, target genes, and genes conferring tolerance to adverse environmental conditions. The company has invested in building seed processing plants, rice processing plants, storage facilities, and a Plant Research Institute with advanced equipment. This is a crucial foundation that helps the company enhance its research, production, and supply capabilities to the market.” In its development strategy, the company clearly identifies three pillars: "intelligence - technology - relationships," with technology playing a key role. This is the foundation for the company to vigorously implement digital transformation, aiming to build a modern agricultural business model.
ThaiBinh Seed is the first enterprise in the country to protect the TBR1 pure rice variety. To date, it has protected more than 30 plant varieties; at the same time, it has built and implemented a systematic and synchronized digital transformation roadmap across all areas of operation. In research, the enterprise promotes the application of biotechnology, information technology, big data, and artificial intelligence in breeding. Digitizing research data not only helps shorten breeding time but also improves accuracy and efficiency, contributing to the creation of high-yield, high-quality plant varieties that are adaptable to climate change. In production, the company is gradually implementing a smart agriculture model, applying sensor devices, remote monitoring systems, and management software. As a result, all stages from planting and caring to harvesting are strictly and scientifically controlled, contributing to reduced costs, increased productivity, and improved product quality.
Recognizing innovation as a core element, the company continuously invests in scientific research and technological development. The company's Crop Research Institute brings together a team of highly qualified scientists and regularly collaborates with domestic and international institutes and universities. Many high-quality rice varieties with good resistance to adverse conditions have been successfully researched, developed, and put into mass production, contributing to increasing the value of Vietnamese rice in the market. Mr. Dang Cao Cuong, Production Director, stated: The company focuses on building a creative working environment, encouraging employees to propose initiatives and technical improvements. This is a crucial foundation for promoting in-depth digital transformation and achieving practical results. The company currently has a Crop Research Institute with an area of over 140 hectares dedicated to research; a biotechnology testing laboratory and research departments; and a national testing laboratory for testing products before they are released to the market. This company is also a pioneer in developing advanced production processes, especially emission reduction processes. The company won first prize, with an award of up to $750,000, in a project on reducing emissions from rice production in the Red River Delta, funded by the Dutch organization SNV.
Beyond simply aiming to improve production and business efficiency, the company also links digital transformation with sustainable agricultural development. Through the application of technology, the company tightly controls the use of agricultural inputs, contributing to minimizing environmental impact. Simultaneously, the digitization of production processes and product traceability enhances transparency, meeting the increasingly high demands of the market, especially the export market. ThaiBinh Seed also actively builds production linkage models along the value chain, supporting farmers with seeds, techniques, and product distribution. This not only increases farmers' income but also contributes to the formation of large-scale, modern agricultural production.
With its strategic vision, systematic investment, and determination to innovate, ThaiBinh Seed is gradually asserting its pioneering role in the digital transformation of agriculture. This is not only the right direction for the company but also aligns with the policies and development orientations of the Party and the State in the current period.
