The fact that more than 80% of exported fruit products are fresh is also a disadvantage. To improve quality and add value, this industry requires investment in deep processing and product diversification instead of just selling raw goods.
Export turnover reached 5.6 billion USD, a record number that the fruit and vegetable industry achieved last year. According to experts, along with the construction and good management of growing areas to create raw material areas that meet sustainable export standards and control harvests, timely updating of technical requirements from Importers will help agricultural products access major markets, aiming to reach the export target of 6-6.5 billion USD of fruits and vegetables this year.
