TAILIEUCHUNG - Food security and sustainable agriculture in Viet Nam

Viet Nam’s success in achieving rapid agricultural growth since the implementation of policy reforms in the late 1980s is now well documented (World Bank 2004). Agri-cultural growth was fueled mainly by growth in rice productivity following the rapid adoption of modern varieties, increased fertilizer use, and increased cropping intensity. | COUNTRY REPORT VIET NAM FOOD SECURITY AND SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE IN VIET NAM Submitted to Fourth Session of the Technical Committee of APCAEM 10-12 February 2009 Chiang Rai Thailand By Dr. Tran Mạnh Hùng Organization Viet Nam Institute of Agricultural Engineering and Post-harvest Technology VIAEP Address 54 102 Truong Chinh Rd.

For the 70 countries on average there has been a slight 7 per cent decline in the number of hungry people from 688 million in 1992-94 to 639 million in 2002-04. The largest decrease occurred in North Africa. Both Asia and the Commonwealth of Independent States experienced a 30-per cent drop in the number of hungry people. The number of hungry people in Latin America and the Caribbean has varied slightly over time but there has been no discernible trend across the region as a whole 3 19 . Despite strong growth in food production Sub-Saharan Africa is the only region where the number of hungry people has risen-over 19 percent-during the last decade. In 2002-04 more than half of the region s population-roughly 350 million-were hungry. Between the 2002-04 base period and 2015-the World Food Summit target date for reducing the number of the world s undernourished people by half-results indicate a 10-percent increase in the distribution gap the amount of food needed to raise consumption levels to nutritional requirements and a 16-percent jump in the number of hungry people.
