The models were implemented on schedule, with quality, and met the set targets and requirements. In particular, through the implementation of the models, the production - processing - preservation chain of agricultural products has been well implemented, promoting the increase of the value of agricultural products.

Implementing the assigned plan of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, the Center has directed specialized departments and, at the same time, closely coordinated with local authorities and Agricultural Service Centers at district, town and city levels to effectively implement the following tasks:agricultural extension modelinto production practice, with a total of 25 models, reaching 100% of the plan.
