(VOVworld) – Vietnam’s coffee industry remains unstable and lacks the necessary processing technology. This was agreed to at a seminar on Vietnamese coffee’s sustainable development which opened on Wednesday in Buon Ma Thuot City. The Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Cao Duc Phat, spoke at the seminar: "The seminar is a great venue for localities, managers, businesses, scientists, and others who are interested in Vietnam’s coffee sector. Delegates will look at both the strong and weak points of Vietnam’s coffee business to seek solutions for the sector’s sustainable development."

With 640,000 ha of coffee, mostly in the Central Highlands, Vietnam has exported coffee to more than 60 countries and territories worldwide, earning 3.4 billion USD in 2014. Vietnam now ranks 2nd in the world in producing robusta coffee, accounting for one fifth of the world’s total coffee production.
