The chorus of good harvests and low prices due to lack of connection

Delegate Dinh Thi Phuong emphasized that the Mekong Delta plays an important role in stabilizing agriculture and food security but is currently facing difficulties: The refrain of good harvests and low prices is due to lack of connectivity, especially regional connectivity, lack of reasonable supply-demand forecasts, failure to promote comparative advantages between localities, and lack of connectivity between farmers and farmers and farmers and businesses.

Therefore, delegates believe that there needs to be fundamental solutions, increasing regional and territorial connectivity, promoting the role of motivation and advantages of localities as well as market forecasting.

Lam Dong people are miserable because they have a good tomato crop but cannot sell it for a good price.

Considering that the competitiveness index of agricultural products is still low, delegates suggested that the Government should allocate an adequate budget for research on varieties and scientific and technological transformation, especially after harvest; there should be stronger solutions to encourage businesses to invest more in agriculture.

The reality is that people's lives in the region are still difficult, and the balancing of interests in the chain is limited because people are not considered the root of the chain, while they face many risks and disadvantages. It is necessary to consider farmers as the root of the chain of each industry in order to have appropriate and effective impact policies. Along with that is vocational training in the direction of choosing key occupations suitable for the region.

Regarding state management in the agricultural sector, it is still poor. For example, fake and poor quality fertilizers are rampant but businesses are rarely punished. Delegates suggested reviewing policies in the fields of agriculture, farmers and rural areas so that policies can truly be a boost for the development of agriculture, farmers and rural areas.
