Hanoi`s Livestock Development Centre has carried out the Vietnam Belgium Dairy Project since 2015 in order to promote the application of advanced techniques in dairy farming in the suburbs of the city.
The center has also coordinated with the Japanese International Cooperation Organization (JICA) in training for technicians working on artificial insemination of cows as wel as conducted in specialized acitivies in the area of managing breeds, training local veterinary team about dairy.
The outstanding outcomes are to implement technical processes for raising dairy; boosting livestock as the main production sector, which eventually lifts farmers’ incomes. Aslo, with all efforts, the local agriclutural sector has had the ability to produce high quality goods, increasing the competitiveness in the market and contributing to social progress.
