Participants interacted with farmers who are implementing 1M5R to discuss the benefits and constraints of the technology from the farmers’ perspective. IRRI and partners are working to boost Vietnam’s rice industry through the “Vietnam Sustainable Agricultural Transformation project” (VnSAT). The VnSAT Central Project Management Unit (CPMU) from the Ministry of Agricultural Rural Development (MARD) CPMU, and the Provincial Project Management Units (PPMU) from eight provinces (An Giang, Tien Giang, Hau Giang, Kien Giang, Can Tho, Soc Trang, Dong Thap, and Long An) in the Mekong River Delta are actively working with farmers to ensure sustainable rice farming in the country’s rice bowl.
