Connecting markets and promoting consumption of agricultural and forestry products

Recently, a workshop titled “Market Connectivity – Promoting the Consumption of Forest and Farm Products for Cooperatives and Cooperative Groups” was held, aiming to strengthen market linkages and support cooperatives and cooperative groups in expanding outlets for agricultural and forestry products.

The workshop attracted representatives from management agencies, international organizations, enterprises, banks, as well as cooperatives and cooperative groups from various localities.

Participants focused discussions on solutions to improve production capacity, quality management, and the development of sustainable raw material zones, while also sharing experience in developing under-forest products, circular production models, and value chain linkages in agricultural production.

A key highlight of the program was the signing of memoranda of understanding on product consumption cooperation between cooperatives and enterprises, contributing to the removal of market bottlenecks, increasing farmers’ incomes, and promoting sustainable rural economic development and the agricultural and forestry sector.
