The visit is part of a joint effort between the two countries to revive their long-term cooperation in the agri-food sector after almost two years interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The 13 companies are leading in Solutions for Livestock & Food Production, Food Processing Technologies, Ingredients and Climate Control Solutions, which are important areas for improving agri-food production towards high efficiency, green and sustainability.
“The Danish agri- food industry for many years have continuously invested in new production equipment and solutions that boost production yield and improve product quality but at the same time consume less water and energy,” Troels Jakobsen, Trade Counsellor of the Embassy of Denmark said.
“Nowadays, we produce three times more food than the Danish population can consume, with some of the lowest greenhouse gas emissions in Europe,” he said.
On this occasion, a seminar entitled “Danish experiences and solutions in sustainable agri-food production” is held in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh city to connect and facilitate exchange of experiences, knowledge and technologies between local decision-makers, sector managers as well as Danish and Vietnamese entrepreneurs.
