The multifaceted benefits of sustainable agriculture contribute solutions to issues like hunger, inequity, energy use, pollution, climate change, biodiversity, and natural resource management. Organic agriculture focuses on solving challenges in food chains by offering healthy, affordable food; minimizing pollution; increasing animal welfare; ensuring fairness and transparency across interdependent value chains; and maximizing efficiency and productivity in resource utilization to benefit all.

In this APO Productivity Talk, Gábor Figeczky, Senior Manager of Global Policy, IFOAM-Organics International, and Dr. Ha Thu Nguyen, Head of Agrochemistry, Vietnam National University of Agriculture, will discuss the importance of organic agriculture and its contributions to productivity improvement and sustainability. They will also explain Vietnam’s policies to promote organic agriculture.
