Israel, Vietnam, boost cooperation in agriculture

A seminar was held in Hanoi on March 15 to boost economic, trade and investment cooperation between Vietnam and Israel, especially in hi-tech agriculture.
 
The seminar, in which a delegation of Israeli agricultural specialists and businesses took part, was co-organized by the Israeli Export Institute and the Israeli Embassy in Vietnam, aimed to share experiences in agricultural production and to seek cooperation and investment opportunities, especially in agricultural technology.
 
Addressing the seminar, jointly held by the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) and the Israeli Embassy, VCCI Vice President Doan Duy Khuong affirmed that the seminar was a good chance for agricultural enterprises in the two countries to exchange experiences and boost cooperation.
 
The guests met with local agricultural businesses in Ho Chi Minh City to exchange information and to look for partners and work with representatives of the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry on the afternoon of March 14th. Bilateral cooperation in agriculture and industry over the years has failed to match the two countries’ potential, and enterprises should increase information exchange and discuss cooperative measures.
 
Israel invests a great deal of funds on researching and applying high technology to the agricultural sector. The Israeli delegation to Vietnam included 10 enterprises engaged in hi-tech agriculture.
