The platform offers solutions and advice on technology, good practices, and other agricultural issues. It helps users with financial planning and seasonal reports.
Nguyen Ai Huu, founder of the World Software Technology Joint Stock Company (Worldsoft), which created the platform, said: "The “Farmers’ network” is a forum where people can exchange information. We use AI to integrate the information we have with global data, analyze it, and give it to the farmers.”
Nguyen Quoc Toan, Director of the Center for Digital Transformation and Agricultural Statistics of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, said the “Farmers’ network” is a practical tool for digitalizing agriculture.
“Farmers produce value. They sow the seeds and harvest the fruits. The "Farmer's network" helps farmers manage their fields and work in cyberspace. This is an important step in the journey of "intellectualizing farmers". For the "Farmers’ network" to operate effectively, we need the participation of many stakeholders, from managers to farmers. We gather data, share data, and use data to boost the value of agriculture,” Toan said.

The Center for Digital Transformation and Agricultural Statistics has collaborated with agencies to promote the “Farmers’ network” to farmers and agricultural collectives, and connect them with businesses.
It also helps businesses build material areas and a network of suppliers, processors, and distributors.
