The agricultural production process generates a lot of waste. Reducing waste, promoting the development of production and processing of agricultural products without waste is a sustainable model.

Viet Farm Trading Co., Ltd chose to invest in Xuan Truong commune, Xuan Loc district because this is a thriving locality in livestock. Starting a business, the business mainly manufactures livestock equipment and designs and constructs livestock barn systems. The barn system designed by the company is fully automatic from the feeding system to collecting chicken manure, cooling system… In which, the enterprise is very interested in waste treatment so that it can earn money. money instead of having to spend a lot of money to treat this waste source. Mr. Tran Quang Tinh, Director of Viet Farm Trading Co., Ltd shared: “The enterprise has invested in an organic fertilizer factory with a capacity of 200 tons/day and signed contracts for waste treatment for a number of corporations. large foreign-invested livestock groups in Dong Nai. In particular, livestock waste is used as a raw material for the production of organic fertilizers, bringing high economic value. Production of organic fertilizers from livestock waste of Viet Farm Trading Company Limited (Xuan Loc District) The story of sustainable agricultural production in a closed chain that takes advantage of all agricultural wastes and by-products, without creating environmental pollution is being replicated in farmers’ production. In the past time, H. Vinh Cuu is promoting a program to mobilize and support farmers to apply probiotics as pesticides, organic fertilizers from domestic waste and waste in agricultural production with the goal of achieving the goal. reduce production costs, increase added value for key agricultural products, local strengths. Here, agricultural waste becomes a resource, a natural organic substance that can help plants grow. Ms. Bui Thi Thuy, a farmer in Vinh An Town (Vinh Cuu District), said that after participating in a number of local training courses on organic farming, she applied biotechnology. Make your own organic fertilizers and use probiotics to create biological products that kill insects. She has improved the productive land more and more fertile thanks to this method. “The natural production method I am doing makes full use of all agricultural waste such as manure and organic waste to make fertilizer for plants, so the cost is very low. I am trying to perfect the chain of cultivation and processing according to a closed process, using fruit trees grown in my home garden as raw materials to make handmade products that are both unique and environmentally friendly,” said Ms. Thuy. * Zero-waste processing Trong Duc Cocoa Co., Ltd (Dinh Quan) has cooperated with a group of Assoc., PhD students of the International University of Ho Chi Minh City to carry out research projects on processing foods and drinks of economic value. benefits from cocoa fruit waste products. New product lines under investment include: production of cookies and non-fried instant noodles supplemented with cocoa pod powder; production process of vegetarian sausage and pectin from cocoa powder; the production process of nutritious drink from cocoa fruit flesh… The highlight of these products is the use of raw materials such as waste from the skin, cocoa fruit flesh to process valuable foods. nutritional and economic. The above cooperation program is part of the common goal of the enterprise, which is to focus on investing in deep processing, constantly diversifying products and foods processed from cocoa fruit, especially from cocoa fruit waste to create profits. competitive advantage for products not only in the domestic market but also in export. Mr. Dang Truong Khanh, Director of Trong Duc Cocoa Co., Ltd. shared that the enterprise would like scientists to accompany in researching new products from cocoa fruit. In particular, high-value foods are processed from materials that are waste products in the production process, contributing to adding added value to cocoa trees. The most unique product line to mention is the specialty of cocoa wine that is brewed from the flesh of the previous cocoa fruit, which is discarded during the production process. With the same opinion, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Pham Van Hung, representing a group of scientists from the International University of Ho Chi Minh City, said, diversifying many products from cocoa skin and flesh, which are waste products in the process. production process brings higher economic value. In particular, this is a product line that is beneficial to human health because it has higher antioxidants, meeting the demand for healthy food of today’s consumers. Research on these products is now almost completed and can be put into production immediately. However, the research team will continue to recalculate the production process and equipment. Hopefully, the cooperation of scientists and businesses will connect and bring more processed products to the market.
