Vietnamese bananas enter Japanese market

Binh Duong, June 16 (VNA) – Vietnam recently exported 22 tonnes of bananas to Tokyo, Japan. This is the first batch shipped under a contract between the U&I Agriculture Corporation (Unifarm) and its Japanese partner. The bananas were grown at the An Thai hi-tech agricultural park across more than 411 hectares of land in southern Binh Duong province. The park is expected to become a modern, productive and high-quality agricultural community applying advanced technologies transferred to farmers under contracts with Unifarm. The company intends to replicate the model across Vietnam.
