US agricultural trade delegation visits Vietnam

Hanoi, Sep 13 (Prensa Latina) The presence in Vietnam on Friday of the largest-ever agricultural trade delegation from the United States underscores the interest that this country's market is arousing in the US agri-food sector.

US Under Secretary for Trade and Foreign Agricultural Affairs Alexis Taylor made the comments at a press briefing. She is leading a large

delegation representing the Department of Agriculture, companies, and agricultural producer associations.

The visit also demonstrates our desire to promote cooperation with Vietnam, as both countries are complementary in agricultural trade, stated Taylor, who reaffirmed the commitment to continue promoting cooperation on climate change adaptation and sustainable agriculture.

Quoted by the Voice of Vietnam, Taylor noted that this working visit aims to promote direct meetings between companies and learn about Vietnamese market conditions through field visits, meetings with industry experts, and bilateral exchanges with government agencies.

The visitor acknowledged that Vietnam is an active participant in agriculture innovation, food security, and climate change response,

and mentioned a bilateral program to help Vietnam’s agricultural sector become more resilient and the Mekong region initiative on the efficient use of fertilizers.
