According to the import and export data of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Vietnam, Vietnam's agricultural, forestry and aquatic products production activities continued to achieve good results in the first nine months of 2022. According to the import and export data, in the first nine months of 2022, Vietnam's exports of agricultural, forestry and aquatic products reached about 40.79 billion US dollars, an increase of 15.2% year on year.

Nguyen Van Yueh, Director of the Planning Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Vietnam, said that the Ministry should focus on guiding and guiding all regions to prepare seeds, fertilizers and agricultural materials to minimize the impact of cold, drought and saline alkali invasion.

The import and export data show that so far, the rice output has reached 19.7 million tons, a year-on-year decrease of 661300 tons (equivalent to a decrease of 3.2%). However, the output can still meet domestic demand and export demand, and the export volume is about 6.3 million to 6.5 million tons.

Based on the good signals of export activities, aquaculture continued to maintain a good growth trend. According to the import and export data, the output of shrimp and fish increased by more than 10%.

Relying on the trend of maintaining growth in all fields, the agricultural industry strives to achieve a GDP growth rate of 2.8-3% in 2022, which is higher than the government's target (2.5-2.8%).
