Promoting agricultural product consumption associated with digital transformation

Many farmers, businesses and cooperatives are shifting from traditional farming and business methods to applying modern digital technology to improve production efficiency.

Most of Lam Dong 's agricultural products can be easily traced back to their origin.

1. Mr. Nguyen Khoa Lan's family, group 5, Nam Gia Nghia ward, has applied many techniques and technologies to improve production efficiency on 5 sao of land for rotating vegetables and fruits. Some steps have been semi-automatically calculated such as irrigation water and fertilizer through a smart irrigation system. He has integrated some software via mobile phone to manage production inputs and outputs, easily calculating economic efficiency.

Some of the outstanding issues that Mr. Lan applied technology to achieve high efficiency include tracing the origin of input materials and capturing market developments in a timely manner. Technology helps him and his affiliated units easily exchange work, cooperate, and negotiate annual contract contents.

Thanks to technology, the contracting enterprise can easily control and trace the origin of how farmers like you implement the criteria and farming processes, and achieve the quality.

With 5 sao of land, just counting the cultivation of Japanese eggplants, with 9 months of harvest, his family earned about 70 tons of fruit. The family's eggplant selling price is stable with purchasing enterprises at 6 - 10 million VND/ton. He earned from 360 million VND, minus the cost of seeds, materials, labor, irrigation water, the profit is about 260 million VND.

Similarly, Ms. Nong Thi Thuy Ngan, Tan Ninh village, Nam Dong commune has 5 sao of land growing sweet corn at the end of the year. Now that the harvest has begun, she makes good use of social media platforms to post information about the product, quality, form, and farming process according to Viet Gap standards. Thanks to the application of social media, her products have an easier market, and the selling price is also quite stable at about 8,000 VND/corn.

2. According to the assessment of the Provincial Farmers' Association, many farmers in the province have now effectively applied technology and digital techniques to production and business. Digital transformation is becoming a positive trend that has spread in agriculture and farmers.

Some prominent aspects of digital transformation are in traceability of goods, digital trade, engineering, and advanced farming technology such as irrigation. Digital transformation is opening a new chapter for the province's agriculture , not only helping to improve productivity and save costs but also opening up new opportunities for farmers to access global markets, increase the value of agricultural products, and reduce market pressure during peak harvest seasons such as the end of the year.

According to the Department of Agriculture and Environment, by the end of October, people, businesses and cooperatives had produced 406,833 hectares of annual crops, reaching 102.8% of the plan, and perennial crops reached 638,859 hectares, reaching 100.03% of the plan. The unit is coordinating with sectors, organizations and localities to promote market development, trade promotion associated with digital transformation to stimulate agricultural consumption at the end of the year.

Specifically, the unit has been coordinating with the Provincial Center for Investment, Trade and Tourism Promotion, enterprises, cooperatives, OCOP entities to display, introduce, and promote OCOP products, high-tech agricultural products, and tourism products at the K-Market Vietnam Congress 2025 Event at Lam Vien Square, Xuan Huong Ward - Da Lat; supporting 6 enterprises to post information on the e-commerce information page...

According to statistics from the authorities, in the western part of the province alone, over 111,000 agricultural production households have had their information digitized, reaching over 92.8%. The number of production and business households trained in digital skills is over 135,700 households, reaching over 80.5% of the total number of farming households in the whole region. This facilitates the agricultural sector in implementing digital transformation.
