Australian Ambassador to Vietnam Graig Chittick said Australia has been providing breeding stock, transferring breeding techniques, and offering expert training to help improve Vietnam’s animal husbandry sector.

He called cooperation and trade in this field between Australia and Vietnam and other countries in Asia a foundation for maintaining sustainable supply chains of milk and beef despite increasingly fierce competition.

The exhibition and conference gives Vietnamese managers, scientists, enterprises, and cow breeder’s access to new products, services, and the technology of Australia’s livestock breeding sector.
