Earlier, Việt Nam has established hi-tech agricultural zones in some localities to boost agriculture, husbandry and aquaculture.

Hasfarm Company in Đà Lạt City, Lâm Đồng Province, has introduced Dutch technologies to its horticultural activities, enjoying economic benefits 20-30 times higher than the normal method.

Some hi-tech agricultural zones in Hồ Chí Minh City, Hải Phòng, Tây Ninh, Bình Dương and other localities are either being built or operating well.
