The agricultural product processing industry has reached the world average level. Growth in the agricultural product processing industry contributes to promoting the global economic integration of the agricultural industry, making an important contribution to increasing agricultural export turnover. Thanks to that, agricultural export turnover increased sharply, on average increasing by 8-10%/year, reaching 41.3 billion USD in 2019.
In the field of agricultural mechanization, the quantity, quality, and types of agricultural machinery and equipment applied in agricultural production have continuously increased over the years. Currently, the average driving force in agricultural production nationwide reaches about 2.4 horsepower/1 hectare of cultivation. The level of mechanization of some stages in agriculture tends to increase rapidly, such as: in the field of cultivation, land preparation for rice reaches 95%, sugarcane reaches over 90%. In the livestock sector, large-scale farms mechanize barns and provide food and water at over 90%; Environmental treatment reached 55%…
