look to support the implementation of the OCOP Programme for 2018-2020, with a
vision to 2030, in northern localities.
The events are expected to create a chance for

and promote trade and investment in this sector. They will also help
businesses, farms and production facilities in the northern region seek
opportunities for partnership with agro-forestry-fishery product purchasing and
processing enterprises nationwide.

leader said with more than 250 booths, the festival and fair will be a
trustworthy bridge helping to market high-quality products to consumers. They
will also serve as venues for localities, businesses, research institutes and
cooperatives from across Vietnam
to introduce their scientific and technological achievements. Additionally,
companies, cooperatives and farmers can also learn experience and access the
latest technologies and equipment for agro-forestry-fishery production and
processing at the events.
Deputy Director of the Hoa Binh provincial
Department of Agriculture and Rural Development Vuong Dac Hung said to be
displayed at the festival and fair, all products have to pass strict
examination and have clear origin, so consumers can put their trust in them.

region, and a programme connecting farmers.
The Hoa Binh citrus tree festival and the
agricultural and OCOP product fair of the northern region are scheduled to take
