Agricultural exports play a crucial role in Vietnam's economy. The agricultural sector not only provides a rich source of food and agricultural products but also creates numerous jobs, contributing to economic development and international integration. Agricultural products are one of Vietnam's main export items, significantly contributing to the country's foreign exchange earnings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Concept of Agricultural Products<\/h2>\n

Currently, the concept of \"agricultural products\" is understood differently by various international organizations and Vietnam.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the World Trade Organization (WTO)<\/h3>\n

Agricultural products include items from chapters 1 to 24 (excluding fisheries) and certain products from other chapters in the Harmonized System (HS) of goods description and coding. This means agricultural products include goods originating from agricultural activities such as rice, coffee, pepper, cashew nuts, tea, fresh vegetables, wheat, flour, milk, live animals, etc., and processed agricultural products such as bread, butter, meat, cooking oil, confectionery, dairy products, soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, tobacco, cotton, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to FAO<\/h3>\n

According to FAO<\/a>agricultural products are any product or commodity in its raw or processed form, sold for human consumption (excluding salt, additives, and water) or for livestock feed.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Vietnam<\/h3>\n

In Vietnam, the concept of agriculture is broader, including livestock, cultivation, forestry, salt production, and fisheries. Therefore, agricultural products include products from these activities. The agricultural, forestry, and fishery processing industries are classified as industrial sectors.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Agricultural

Agricultural Products in Vietnam Include Fisheries and Salt Production<\/p><\/div>\n

Thus, it can be seen that the definition of agricultural products varies between international organizations and Vietnam. For example, according to WTO and FAO, items like confectionery, soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, sugar, and milk are classified under agriculture, while in Vietnam, they are classified as industrial products. Conversely, Vietnam classifies fisheries, forestry, and salt production under agriculture, which international organizations do not recognize.<\/span><\/p>\n

This leads to significant discrepancies in the value of agricultural production and exports of some countries when reported by international organizations like WTO and FAO.<\/span><\/p>\n

Concept of Agricultural Exports<\/h2>\n

Exporting goods is the activity of selling goods or services to another country to expand the market and promote the trade and economic development of that country. In other words, exporting is an international business activity that connects production and consumption between countries.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the 2005 Vietnam Commercial Law, exporting goods is defined as the activity of organizations and units bringing goods out of the Vietnamese territory or into special zones as prescribed by law.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, what is agricultural export?<\/p>\n

This is the activity of taking agricultural products outside of Vietnam's territory or into special zones as prescribed by law and selling them to other countries for economic profit, including:<\/span><\/p>\n
