GIA LAI PROVINCE_ MAKING PASSION FRUIT A MAIN AGRICULTURAL PRODUCT

On June 1, the Department of Agriculture and Environment of Gia Lai province said that passion fruit is currently one of four crops planned as a key agricultural export product of the province. The goal is to expand the area of ​​passion fruit cultivation in the province to about 10,000 hectares in the coming time.
This crop is bringing high economic efficiency, helping local people have a stable income. Currently, many enterprises such as Quicornac, Doveco Dong Giao… have invested in building modern processing factories, exporting thousands of tons of processed passion fruit products to international markets each year.
Gia Lai province currently has about 5,450 hectares of passion fruit and has been granted 48 growing area codes, a key factor to participate in the official export market.
The provincial Department of Agriculture and Environment is coordinating with localities, enterprises, and cooperatives to develop codes for growing areas and packaging facilities.
At the same time, the province is stepping up control of seed quality, input materials, application of science and technology, and encouraging production according to VietGAP, GlobalGAP, and organic standards.
Organizing production in line with market demand not only expands opportunities for sustainable development for the passion fruit industry, but also helps Gia Lai effectively exploit the potential of agricultural land, increasing income for local people.
