Viet Nam is significantly scaling up its low-emission “green rice” exports to high-end international markets like the EU, Australia, and Japan. Yielding premium prices, this shift is known as part of the country’s strategic goal to elevate the global value of its agricultural sector. Over 70,000 tons of Mekong Delta rice have been certified under the low-emission green Vietnamese rice label.

Besides, the Vietnamese government is actively pursuing a national One Million Hectare sustainable cultivation project in the Mekong Delta. The project aims to shift rice farming toward green growth and create an internationally recognized green and low-emission Vietnamese rice brand.
