JOINT UN PROGRAM SUPPORT TO THE NATIONAL TARGET PROGRAMME ON THE NEW RURAL DEVELOPMENT UNIDO PROJECT: STRENGTHEN THE SUPPLY CAPACITY OF THE FRUIT AND VEGETABLE SECTOR BY APPLYING PROPER TECHNOLOGIES ALONG THE VALUE CHAIN
Objectives : • To improve the organizational and managerial structure of production through strengthening the organizational and managerial capacities of smallholders • To improve the quality of agricultural products and reduce post-harvest losses through strengthening productive capacities in terms of production techniques, management and value addition • To increase the income of smallholders through the provision of appropriate technologies for conservation and value addition Key activities: • Technology transfer through the set-up of a community centre (Centre of Excellence) for conservation and packaging purpose in rural areas; • Skills development in the field of conservation, management, accounting and certification process; • Dissemination of good practices, norms and standards at community levels; • Value addition through simple packaging methods (cutting and packaging) 2
Participating agencies: - National Coordination Office of the NTP on New Rural Development : Program Management Unit - Vietnam Institute of Agriculture Engineering and Post Harvest Technology (VIAEP) : Implementing Partner - United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO): Technical Assistance Provider 3
Survey - Focus on major vegetable production areas in suburbs of Hanoi ; collectors, middlemen, etc. and individual customers thereof: Van Duc Commune and Cu Khoi, Gia Lam District; Thanh Da commune, Phuc Tho district; Van Noi commune, Dong Anh district, Yen Nghia commune, Ha Dong district and Dong Xuan commune, Soc Son district. - Issues to be addressed along the vegetable value chain of Hanoi : Unstable distribution system of inputs materials, Small-scale production , limited Sub- harvest technology and techniques , Lack of harvesting tools, simple means of transportation, improper washing/cleaning methods, weak labelling & packaging, lack of pre-cooling & cold storage facilities, lack of preservation technology, limited written agreement/contract for product consumption. 4
Capacity building & skills development Improved capacity & shared good practices for VIAEP’s experts by Newzealand international expert. Organized ToT and advance ToT: for 20 participants including chairmans of vegetable production cooperatives, directors of vegetable companies, agriculture extension staffs, staff of plant protection sub-department, etc. Organized TOEs: 300 farmers/households, retailers from surveyed vegetable growing areas trained by TOT participants 5

Achievements from training courses Economically, application of knowledge and improved skills gained from training to the participants’ practical production has helped them to improve productivity and quality, therefore added value. Socially, through improved knowledge, skills and good practices, young participants have been encouraged to invest in vegetable production model or setting up business. This helps to creat jobs in rural areas and reduce immigration of youth to big cities. 11
Specific Cases : Dong Xuan Cooperative: post-harvest losses of root and fruit-vegetables - reduce to 10-15%, selling prices rise 15-20%; post-harvest losses of leafy vegetables reduce to 5-10%, selling prices rise and 7-12%. Improved packing and quality of the products led to increased number of contracts and shops/supermarkets: from 5 outlets (in 2014) to 18 ones (in 2015), and increased daily selling amount from 300-700 kg (in 2014) to 1,000-1,500 kg (in 2015). - An Viet High Technology Agricultural Products JSC.: post-harvest losses of root and fruit-vegetables reduce to 5-15%, selling prices rise 10-30%; post- harvest losses of leafy vegetables reduce to 7-15%, selling prices rise 10-50%, for the products are counter-seasonal. 12
