During the process of printing and labeling, State management agencies have organized well survey, inspection, supervision, evaluation, selection and current status of labeling for tracing the origin of orange products bearing the geographical indication "Vinh" in the province, and at the same time proposed solutions for management and implementation of labeling for tracing the origin.
However, the number of printed traceability stamps compared to the amount of Vinh oranges sold on the market is not much.
