Bring technology products to the field fastest

The Mini Expo 2025 event series with the theme "From technology to practical comprehensive farming solutions for crops", organized by Loc Troi Group, took place from October 28 to 30, gathering nearly 1,000 guests. Within the framework of the event, professional agencies, scientists , businesses and farmers discussed together to find a substantive coordination mechanism, promoting the effectiveness of agricultural extension and science and technology in sustainable rice production.

By 2030, An Giang province will deploy about 350,000 hectares of high-quality production areas, 120,000 advanced farmers into the grassroots agricultural extension network and cooperatives.

According to Mr. Huynh Van Thon - Chairman of Loc Troi Group, Loc Troi's goal is to build a cooperative model with the participation of grassroots agricultural extension workers, enterprise technical staff and core farmers. Accordingly, each party takes on its own role but aims for a common goal - efficient, quality and sustainable rice production. From there, it creates a foundation for organizing large-scale raw material areas, reducing emissions and increasing the value of Vietnamese rice.

Director of the National Agricultural Extension Center Le Quoc Thanh said that the connection between grassroots agricultural extension and enterprises is not only an inevitable requirement but also a breakthrough solution for the project of 1 million hectares of high-quality rice to achieve the goals of productivity, quality and emission reduction. According to him, the implementation of the agricultural extension development strategy until 2030 is specified through Circular 60 on the organization of the agricultural extension system according to multi-level government.

Accordingly, in addition to the regular state agricultural extension force, there must be enterprise agricultural extension, institute agricultural extension, school agricultural extension and social agricultural extension. Mr. Thanh said that no matter what product we have, high technology, imported technology, institute technology, all the technology of enterprises, but if we do not bring it into people's fields, the problem will not be solved.

“And our ultimate goal is to bring scientific and technological products to the people as quickly as possible,” Mr. Le Quoc Thanh emphasized, while affirming that enterprises like Loc Troi are professional agricultural extension forces with technical, technological and financial capacity to accompany farmers. When these two systems are combined, scientific knowledge will come faster and more practically to each field.

Sharing the same view, the head of the agricultural and environmental sector of An Giang province, Le Huu Toan, acknowledged that An Giang is currently organizing and operating the raw material area according to the project of 1 million hectares of high-quality rice, reducing emissions will only be successful when there is close coordination between the three pillars: agricultural extension - enterprises - farmers. The agricultural extension force is considered the "bridge" bringing science to the fields, enterprises are the "locomotive" bringing products to the market, and farmers are the "center" of the entire production process.

“This cooperation will form a flexible operating system, helping people access new technology, apply standardized production processes, trace origins, reduce input costs and move towards “green” production. In particular, comprehensive farming models like those of Loc Troi Group are considered concrete evidence of the right direction, both increasing economic efficiency and protecting the environment,” Mr. Toan cited.

According to the An Giang provincial agricultural sector, from now until 2030, the province will deploy about 350,000 hectares of high-quality production areas, in which more than 120,000 advanced farmers will participate in the grassroots agricultural extension network and cooperatives. These farmers are trained, have knowledge and skills in applying science and technology, becoming the core force in operating green, circular farming models, reducing emissions.

The linkage between agricultural extension and enterprises not only provides technical support but also opens up market development and increases product value. We are moving from a stage of sufficient food and export to a stage of focusing on quality and linking production, processing and consumption. This is an inevitable step if we want to maintain the position of rice in the Mekong Delta.
