As many as 46 out of 63 localities across Vietnam carried out organic farming in 2020, with the involvement of more than 170,000 farmers, data of the International Federation of Organic Agriculture Movements (IFOAM) shows. The organic farming movement has developed rapid but only a few products are recognised as organic ones. Large-scale production and support from localities are considered as necessary to create a large amount of organic products at reasonable prices. Stricter management mechanism is needed for organic farming development to guarantee transparency in the process and increase consumers’ trust in the organic farm produce./.
