Urban agriculture is undergoing a transformation.

Following engineers, scientists, and farmers in Phuoc Hoa, Binh Gia communes and the Ho Chi Minh City High-Tech Agricultural Zone, reporters from SGGP newspaper documented the remarkable transformation of urban agriculture. Research on breeding, tissue culture, and microbiological analysis has been applied in practice through greenhouse systems, automatic irrigation, recirculating hydroponics, humidity sensors, and smartphone-controlled software.

Each product—from chili peppers, tomatoes, orchids, and reishi mushrooms to bio-algae—bears the indelible mark of technology and innovation. From brightly lit laboratories to lush green fields, Ho Chi Minh City's agriculture is progressively modernizing, moving towards a green, smart, and sustainable agricultural ecosystem.
