The focus of this discussion is the agricultural sector.
This information was highlighted during the 2025 Prime Minister’s Dialogue with Farmers, themed: “Application of Science and Technology, Innovation, and Digital Transformation in Agriculture,” held on the morning of December 10.
In his concluding remarks at the conference, the Prime Minister emphasized that science and technology, innovation, and digital transformation are objective requirements and top strategic priorities. They are essential to achieving the goal of exporting $100 billion worth of agricultural products in the future.
The Prime Minister noted a significant gap between research and the application of science and technology in agricultural production. Regarding the acceleration of digital transformation in agriculture and rural areas, he stressed the need to enhance electricity and network coverage, particularly in remote, border, island, and ethnic minority regions.
Additionally, the Prime Minister called for mechanisms and policies to support linkages between cooperatives and businesses, aligned with green transformation, digital transformation, and the application of science and technology.

The Prime Minister noted that most farmers still face low incomes and risks from natural disasters, diseases, and market fluctuations. He called for breakthrough solutions to develop agriculture, improve farmers’ livelihoods, and build new rural areas, alongside risk management measures such as agricultural insurance.
The Prime Minister urged ministries, agencies, and localities to first review, develop, and issue transparent mechanisms and policies on land, credit, science and technology, and digital transformation in agriculture. Second, implement various credit support programs and policies for the agricultural and rural sectors. Third, address challenges in agricultural insurance to develop a robust agricultural insurance market, particularly against risks like crop failure, price fluctuations, and natural disasters. Fourth, continue evaluating and expanding programs to support farmers.
Finally, localities should continue issuing policies to develop agriculture, farmers, and rural areas, tailored to each phase, based on the Party and State’s guidelines, with the principle of “farmers as the center and subject, agriculture as the driving force, and rural areas as the foundation.”

Establish a mechanism for collaboration among scientists, businesses, cooperatives, and farmers.
