Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Tran Thanh Nam, who heads the special mission, told an online meeting on Wednesday, “It’s a problem when businesses have signed contracts with farmers for the harvest of certain rice paddies and then the harvest turns out to be a failure. That’s why regional cooperation to balance production is critical.”
