Farmers learn how to distinguish genuine fertilisers from fakes
A programme to help farmers distinguish genuine products from fake, copycat and substandard ones is rolling out across the country. Fertiliser makers interviewed by danviet.vn contributed their ideas on how to make it work.
The Programme for Coordinated Monitoring of Law Compliance in Production and Trade of Agricultural Material Inputs 2014 – 2020, was instituted in order to supervise the use of fertilisers, plant protection chemicals, veterinary medicines, feed, plant seeds and seedlings.
Initiated on July 17, 2014 (thus referred to as Programme 17) jointly by the Viet Nam Farmers’ Union, Viet Nam Fatherland Front, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and Ministry of Industry and Trade, has seen 35 provinces sign up for the programme so far.
