The event, the fourth of its kind, was held by the VNFU to honour agricultural products with high economic values as well as organisations and individuals with innovative ideas and experience in agricultural production and services development.

As many as 157 products nationwide were honoured as typical agricultural products at this year’s event. All three products of Hoa Binh province nominated by the provincial Farmers’ Union were certified as typical agricultural products, including organic vegetables of the group of organic producers in Luong Son district, Cao Phong orange and Son Thuy longan of Kim Boi district.

Among the three honoured products, Son Thuy longan of Kim Boi district received the title for the first time. Cao Phong orange and Luong Son organic vegetables were named typical agricultural products for three times as they brought in outstanding economic values and formed production areas that ensure food safety and generate high income for local farmers./.
