Vietnam: Farming sector must adapt to see full WTO benefits:

The agricultural sector needs to overcome challenges to increase economic efficiency in the wake of membership to the World Trade Organisation (WTO), said an agricultural expert. According to Dr Nguyen Quoc Vong, an expert from the Agriculture Department in New South Wales, Australia, Viet Nam does not have enough skilled farmers and professional agronomists.

He said that major challenges involved crop cultivation plans that result in low export value, unsustainable agricultural development and low rural incomes.
