(VAN) De Heus Vietnam welcomes young people and partners to visit Vinh Long 2 Factory and De Heus's Aquaculture R&D Center in Mekong.

To encourage young people to be interested in the agricultural industry and at the same time explore attractive career opportunities, De Heus Vietnam cooperated with Nuffic Neso to organize the Empower Youth4Food campaign.

The tour to Vinh Long 2 Factory and the Aquaculture R&D Center is one of the highlight activities of this campaign.

Biotechnology students at Can Tho University were impressed by De Heus Vietnam's advanced technology as well as commitment to sustainable development.

This tour awakened my passion for the agricultural industry and inspired me to want to contribute to the sustainable development of the industry.
