Những vấn đề tồn tại trong sản xuất thanh long ở tỉnh Long An và các giải pháp phát triển bền vững

Abstract

The dragon fruit planting area in Long An Province has increased 5 times from 2010 to 2014, exceeding the province’s initial plans, while its infrastructure and related supports have not kept pace with production speed, which greatly has influenced productivity and quality of products, leading to“supply over demand” and prices fluctuated. To develop Long An’s dragon fruit sustainably, the first solution is to re-plan production areas and choose best breeds for each locality, then build and develop Long An’s dragon fruit brand, expanding planting areas conforming to VietGAP, GlobalGap standards. What is more, replicate the cooperative patterns in dragon-fruit production and consumption to enhance the product value chain.
