Digital transformation is opening new doors for Vietnamese farmers, allowing them to build a sustainable economy in their hometowns, without needing to migrate. At the "Promoting Agricultural Digitization" conference, the Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Le Minh Hoan, emphasized that technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and automation increase productivity and make production and management more efficient. This, in turn, strengthens the global competitiveness of Vietnamese agricultural products.

Digital technology is also helping to lower costs for agricultural businesses. According to Nguyen Hoai Nam, a representative of the Seafood Association, businesses applying digital solutions can cut costs by 7-25% and meet international standards more easily. Similarly, the wood industry has leveraged digital tools to verify the legal origin of wood, ensuring compliance with the stringent requirements of the EU and other major markets.
Minister Le Minh Hoan asserted that digital transformation in agriculture offers a sustainable and long-term path for Vietnamese farmers to escape poverty and prosper on their land. This approach brings economic benefits and represents a meaningful step toward a greener, more sustainable future for rural Vietnam.
